Installation
4.2.4
Selecting the installation site
When you select the mounting location, the distance between the ICR and the host and
between the ICR and the code are important.
Distance between ICR and host
The ICR can be installed in a bus connection max. 1,200 m (3,936.96 ft) from the host. The
distance which can be achieved depends on the selected model of the host interface and
the set data transfer rate, however (see
). Via the Ethernet interface the
ICR can connected to the Ethernet network.
Distance between the ICR and the CDB 420 or CDM 420 Connection Module
The CDB 420 or CDM 420 Connection Module must not be located further than 10 m
(32.8 ft) from the ICR, since the “CLV Setup“ program on the PC accesses the auxiliary
interface of the ICR via this module (RS 232) by default.
