* when connecting the sync output to the command input 1, at start of the sensor (power on), the sensor is brought to  
   the 

programming

 mode. In this programming mode the firmware can be uploaded with the RS-232 connection or over 

   the Ethernet network. 

 

** when the sync output is connected to the command input 2, at start of the sensor, the sensor will activate the RiP  
   mode and communicate only at the default IP address. 
   Please note: when both command inputs were connected to sync out, the sensor will go to the programming mode.   

 The activation of the 

Programming mode

 or 

RiP mode

 is made only when the sensor is switched on and had no   

        power before for a few 10 seconds.    

 

*** colors are given as an example. 

 

Tipp: the Scanner could be connected with one single*, highly flexible, cable for robotic applications. The cable used 

is a Ethernet cable specially made for the use with robots. The power supply is taken over two unused wires in the 
network cable, following the idea of the IEEE 802.3af standard. Details are given in the TE-M2-iLAN-connection-E.pdf. 
Cables following this definition are available from MEL on request. 

 

*   single cable attachment: connection with a single cable specified for use with robots. 
** PoE: Power over Ethernet, standard IEEE 802.3af.
