When multiple accessories are used with a single SuperK laser, the laser’s
External bus connects the accessories in a daisy chain topology. For each
device, the address selector wheel must be set to one of 16 (0x0 to 0xF) unique
addresses. Figure 18 shows a case where multiple accessories share the External
bus.
