Multilinking is a way to connect multiple Knight-Trak II dispensers in a laundry. Once connected, you can
"talk" to all dispensers from a single connection.
(1) Before connecting the multilinking cable, use the LFP to give each dispenser its own ID number. If
dispensers on the multilink have the same ID number, they will not work correctly. THIS MUST BE
DONE BEFORE YOU CAN "LOG-ON" WITH REPORTER PC SOFTWARE OVER THE
NETWORK.
(2) Using shielded cable, connect the multilink barriers on each POB in series. Be careful to keep the
polarity the same on each dispenser.
(3) A booster transformer must be used if multilinked dispensers are connected to a PC running with
Reporter software. See Reporter network diagram included in this manual.
