Daisy Chain Autoconfigure
Note: All slave scanners must be set to Serial for Daisy Chain to function.
See “Trigger Mode” on page 4-4.
When setting up a daisy chain operation, do the following:
1. Set the master (the scanner connected to the host) scanner to Serial.
This sets all the scanners in the daisy chain to Serial when the command is car-
ried out.
2. Send <K150DAISY> command.
3. If necessary, set the master scanner to Edge.
Definition: Daisy Chain Autoconfigure is issued to the master scanner in the
daisy chain and the software responds as follows:
• Counts the number of slave scanners in the daisy chain.
• Assigns an internal ID number (1...n) to each slave scanner, where
the first slave scanner is number 1 (and it’s own ID being a 0).
• Propagates the communications settings and the relevant operating
modes of the master scanner to the host and auxiliary ports of each
slave scanner.
• Resets each slave scanner.
• Verifies that each slave scanner has acquired the new settings.
Usage: For quick setup and configuration of the daisy chain network.
Serial Cmd: <K150DAISY>
