3.1.1 Setup Screen
The SCANNER has the capability of communicating via Dynalink (point to point) using the
communications cable p/n CBLE-8509 or via Modbus (SC2124M only) through the serial
communications port CONN B. The user must setup the SCANNER to communicate via
Dynalink in order to configure the SCANNER with HOST software. A Configuration Screen
is available to switch between the Dynalink and Modbus protocols (See Figure 1).
Figure 1, Configuration Screen
To enter Configuration Mode, the user must press the SETUP Key. The Communication
Setup Screen prompts the user to select a communication protocol. To communicate with
Dynalco Controls HOST software, the user must select the Dynalink protocol. To
communicate with an external device on a Modbus, the user must select the Modbus
protocol. To select either protocol, the user must press either of the Soft Keys located under
the corresponding protocol listed in the last row of the Configuration Screen. The currently
selected protocol is enclosed in brackets (‘>’ and ‘<’). The default SCANNER protocol is
Dynalink.
To exit Configuration Mode, the user must press and hold the ESC Key for one second.
