DS2X00N-DS4800 SCANNER FAMILY
SETUP PROCEDURE USING PROGRAMMING BARCODES
1 ID-NET™ NETWORK SETUP USING PROGRAMMING
BARCODES
For any DS2x00N-DS4800 Family scanner, programming barcodes can be used to setup the
ID-NET™ built-in high-speed interface dedicated for high-speed reader interconnection.
ID-NET™ is in addition to the Main and Auxiliary serial interfaces.
Following topologies are available:
ID-NET™ M/S Synchronized: Single station – multiple scanners
1 3
2
Master
Power
Host
The ID-NET™ interface allows local connection of multiple scanners that are reading on
different sides of the same target. All scanners share a single presence sensor and
activate/deactivate simultaneously.
At the end of each reading phase a single data message is transmitted to the host.
Thanks to ID-NET™, data communication among scanners is highly efficient so that an
immediate result will be available.

Main Serial Interface (RS232 or RS485)
External Trigger (for On-Line Mode)
ID-NET™ (up to 16 devices - practical limit)

ID-NET™ (up to 32 devices, max network extension of 1000 m)
The ID-NET™ interface allows connection of scanners that are reading objects placed on
independent conveyors. All scanners are typically located far away from each other and they
use a dedicated presence sensor.
At the end of each reading phase, every scanner transmits its own data message to the host.
Thanks to ID-NET™, data collection among readers is accomplished at a high speed without
the need of an external multiplexing device. This leads to an overall cost reduction and to
simplified system wiring.
