The MSI-8000HD 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-
8000HD equipment.
•
MSI-8000HD
based RF systems are peer to peer. For multiple scale connections,
the MSI-8000HD acts as the network coordinator.
The MSI-8000HD 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-8000HD 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-8000HD 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-8000HD ID is recommended to be in the
range of 20-30.
