Communication Setup

The Dyna-Link 2 can communicate with peripheral devices using RS-232 or 802.15.4

wireless. Only one communications type can exist at a time. The RS-232 port located

on the bottom side of the Dyna-Link 2 is useful for setup and calibration using a

computer and MSI’s SCCMP Software (SCCMP operation is detailed in the SCCMP

User Guide).

6.1 RF Option

Since the RF options are easily connected they are commonly used for gathering

weight data after the initial setup of the unit. For RF operation, the Dyna-Link 2 uses

an 802.15.4 transceiver to communicate with the MSI-8000 RF Remote Display.
802.15.4 wireless:

• operates in the 2.4GHz ISM band and does not require the end user to obtain a

license.

• can coexist with other 2.4GHz systems if caution is taken to isolate antennas at

least 10 feet or 3 meters from the Crane Scales and MSI-8000 equipment.

MSI-8000 based RF systems are peer to peer. However, for multiple scale

connections, the MSI-8000 acts as the network coordinator.
