Ethernet Network Layout3.5.2 Serial ConnectionIn this layout the data is transmitted to the Host on the main serial interface. The Ethernet interface can be used for readerconfiguration by connecting a laptop computer running Barcode Manager.Data can be transmitted on the RS232 auxiliary interface independently from the main interface selection to monitor data.When One Shot or Phase Mode operating mode is used, the reader can be activated by an External Trigger (for example apulse from a photoelectric sensor) when the object enters the reading zone.ABRAloneExternal Powerfor ABR and I/OAccessories1.

Serial Interface Point-to-Point LayoutAll devices always support multiple output channels (that is, for data monitoring).3.5.3 Pass-ThroughThe pass-through layout allows each device working alone, to collect data from one or more pass-through input channelsand send this data plus its own on one or more different output channels.In this way independent devices can be connected together in combinations to create multi device networks. Many devicesreading independently can send their messages through a common output channel which instead of being directed at aHost can be collected by another device on its pass-through input channel and sent to a Host on a different output channel.ABR 7000 Series Barcode Readerwww.bannerengineering.com - Tel: + 1 888 373 6767 13
