To calculate the AXlink wiring distance formula for data and power:
1.
<Total current consumption of all device's on AXlink cable> *<wire resistance per foot> *
2 = <voltage drop per foot>.
See tables below for the Wire Resistance/Foot values.
2.
<Power supply voltage> - 12 VDC = <surplus voltage dissipation for cable run>.
3.
<Surplus voltage dissipation for cable run> / < voltage drop per foot > =
Maximum distance in feet.
The following table lists the resistance factors used in the formula.
Assigning the ANT-RDR Device Address
The ANT-RDR sets its AXLink address via the 8-position DEVICE DIP switch located on the rear panel
(FIG. 13).
The AXLink address distinguishes a device on the AXLink bus from other devices. Care
should be taken by the system integrator not to assign duplicate AXLink addresses to multiple
devices.
AXLink addresses must be in the range of 1 to 255 (address 0 belongs to the Master).
As indicated on the device, flip each switch
down
for the ON position.
For example, the DIP switch shown in FIG. 13 defines Device 96 (switches 6 and 7 = ON).

The device number takes effect only upon power-up. If you later change the device
number, remove and reconnect the AXlink connector to enter the new device number
into memory.
