Configuring the Module

4. Reset the module. See

Resetting the Module

section in this chapter.

The module is ready to receive I/O from the master (i.e., scanner). You
must now configure the scanner to recognize and transmit I/O to the
module. Refer to

Chapter 4

To set a module to transmit Peer-to-Peer data

1. Verify that Parameter 61 - [Peer Out Enable] is set to Off. This

parameter must be Off while you configure peer output parameters.

2. Select the source of the data to output to the network in Parameter

59 - [Peer A Output].

3. If desired, select an additional source of the data to output to the

network in Parameter 60 - [Peer B Output].

4. Set Parameters 62 - [Peer Out Time] and 63 - [Peer Out Skip] to

establish the minimum and maximum intervals between Peer
messages. Because the module transmits Peer messages when a
change-of-state condition occurs, minimum and maximum intervals
are required.

The minimum interval ensures that the module does not transmit
messages on the network too often, thus minimizing network
traffic. It is set in Parameter 62 - [Peer Out Time]. The default
is 10.00 seconds.
