The
MSI-8000
uses 802.15.4 transceivers to communicate between MSI’s Dyna-Links and
Crane Scales.
802.15.4 operates in the 2.4GHz systems if:
• Caution is taken to isolate antennas at least 10 feet (3 meters) from the
MSI-8000
equipment.
•
MSI-8000
based RF systems are peer to peer. For multiple scale connections, the
MSI-
8000
acts as the network coordinator.
The
MSI-8000
uses three numbers to establish a piconet:
•
ScaleCore ID
- This number is used to uniquely identify each device in a Piconet. It
has a range of 0-254 and must not be duplicated within the same RF Channel. For the
MSI-8000
as network coordinator, MSI recommends a number from 20-30.
•
RF Channel
- Establishes the base network that all interconnected devices must
match. This number must be in the range of 12-23.
•
Network ID
- This is a 64 bit number that all interconnected devices must match. The
MSI-8000
limits this number to a max of 6 digits for a range of 0-99999. Do not use a
small number here to help avoid other 802.15.4 networks that default to a Network ID
of 0.
For all devices that must interconnect, the RF Channel and Network ID must match. The
ScaleCore ID must be unique. The Dyna-Link or Crane Scale that is the weight source
should be set to a ScaleCoreID of 0. Then if other slave devices are added, they can be
added in sequence. The
MSI-8000
ID is recommended to be in the range of 20-30.
