Usage:
|
For quick setup and configuration of your
daisy chain network.

Definition:
|
The command to autoconfigure the daisy chain
is sent to the primary Imager and the software responds in the
following ways:
- Counts the number of secondary readers in the daisy chain.
- Assigns an internal ID number (1...n) to each secondary reader,
where the first secondary reader is number 1 (the primary reader's
ID being a 0).
- Propagates the communications settings and the relevant
operating modes of the primary Imager to the host and auxiliary
ports of each secondary reader.
- Resets each secondary reader.
- Verifies that each secondary reader has acquired the new
settings.

Serial Cmd:
|
<K150DAISY>
|
Note: All secondary readers must be set to Serial for Daisy Chain to function.
When setting up a daisy chain operation, perform
the following steps:
- Set the primary Imager (the one connected to the host) to
Serial.
This sets all the Imagers in the chain to
Serial when the
command is executed.
Before Autoconfigure you must
set the primary Imager to Serial (S):
- If necessary, set the primary Imager to Edge.
After Autoconfigure you may
set the primary Imager to Edge (E), but the other Imagers must remain in Serial (S):
Note: The USB version of the MS-4 does not support this
command.
