2.3
Addressing in the network
Addressing via ASCII
address
Addressing the individual bar code readers is necessary for the function of
the network so that the read data can be matched to a station.
Leuze uses
2-byte ASCII addressing
in multiNet plus. This addressing is
included in each data telegram. This address must be selected at the stations
either via hardware (rotary switch) or via software.
The following rules apply:
No address may occur twice in the network. The numbering must be without
gaps, i.e. all addresses up to the
last slave address
(=last subscriber in the
network) must be occupied. Be careful to observe the correct selection of net-
work addresses during commissioning.
Notice!
The logical order of the assigned addresses does not have to correspond to
the physical order of the read stations in multiNet plus.
