Synchronization of HDX readers
— NOTE ——————————————————————
If there are other HDX (half duplex tag) readers within 500 ft
(150 m) of the StepMetrix ISO ID reader and HDX tags are
used for Ste pMetrix identification, all HDX readers within
500 ft (150 m) must be synchronized with the Ste pMetrix
ISO ID reade r. If the distance b etween the readers is
greater than 500 ft (150 m), or onl y FDX (full duplex) tags
are used for the identification, synchronization of readers is
not necessary.
1. If there are other HD X readers in addition to the
StepMetrix ISO ID read er, connect a two wire
(shielded) cable from SYNC OUT of the StepMetrix ISO
ID reader to the SYNC of the other HDX reader. If there
is a s econd StepMetrix ISO ID read er, connect the
SYNC OUT of the first StepMetrix ISO ID re ader to the
SYNC IN of the second StepMetrix ISO ID reader and
so on until all the readers are connected in the sam e
daisy chain fashion.
