RS-485 address
6.2.1
Introduction
Every reader operated at the RS-485 module bus must have its
own
address. A
plausibility check
in the system prevents addresses from being allocated several times.
Possible
address range:
depending on the controller
The allocation of the addresses varies. The following information is intended to assist you in
choosing the best methods for your special requirement. A detailed description on the individual
methods can be found in the following chapters.
1.) Manually via the central control unit
(see 6.2.4)
Enter the serial number of the reader plus the desired address via the programming of the
central control unit. The address is then stored in the reader.
Recommended standard methods.
2.) Automatically with data carrier
(see 6.2.5)
Start the process with a data carrier in the reading area of the reader. The address is
allocated automatically and then stored in the reader. As long as the address allocation
mode is active, several readers can be automatically allocated addresses in succession.
Recommendation:
Suitable for shorter distances between the central control unit and the individual readers.
(Manual input of the serial numbers of the readers is not required).
3.) Manually via reader keypad
(see 6.2.6)
An address is allocated via the keypad at the reader.
Recommended:
When a specific address has to be allocated to an reader on site.
4.) Manually via reader keypad - stand alone operating mode
(see 6.2.7)
Only
the operating voltage requires connecting at the reader. The address allocation mode
must not be active, neither is a connection to the ACS-8 necessary.
An address is allocated via the keypad at the reader.
Recommended:
When servicing or testing.
ATTENTION
: A plausibility check is not possible!
