Table 2.C

DH+ Station Numbers for 1775ĆS5, ĆSR5 Modules

If the station address between:

The backup scanner module assumes a station

address that is:

00 and 37

8

40

8

higher than the assigned station number

40

8

and 77

8

40

8

lower than the assigned station number

When you do not select backup, you assign a unique DH (000

8

to 376

8

) or

DH+ (00

8

to 77

8

) station number to the scanner module in the primary

processor and the one in the backup processor. The backup continues to
operate with the same station number even after the switchover.

ATTENTION: To guard against personal injury and damage to
equipment, do not assign the same station number to both
scanner modules, if you have not selected backup mode.

If both scanners are assigned the same number and backup is
not selected, two stations with the same station number attempt
to communicate on the link. This can cause unpredictable
machine motion.

5 - Send Unprotected

Select the

Send Unprotected

option from the configuration screen to

determine if the scanner can send unprotected command messages to other

data table

a protected command to write to those areas of another station’s data

table specified by the station that receives the command

If you:

Then the scanner can send:

select send unprotected

both protected and unprotected commands

do not select send unprotected

protected commands only

An asterisk displays in front of this selection to indicate that it is enabled.
