TYPICAL LAYOUTS

An alternative Pass-Through layout allows the more efficient ID-NET™ network to be used.
This layout is really an ID-NET Master/Slave Multidata layout which also allows each reader
(Master and Slaves) to accept input on the Auxiliary interface, for example to connect a
device such as a hand-held reader for manual code reading capability.
Each Matrix 400™ transmits its own messages plus any messages received by its Auxiliary
interface onto the ID-NET™ interface. The Master passes all messages to the Host.
When One Shot or Phase Mode operating mode is used, the reader can be activated by an
External Trigger (photoelectric sensor) when the object enters its reading zone.
