6.3 Software Configuration
The read head is integrated into the network via an EDS file (electronic datasheet) with a proj-
ect planning tool such as RSLogix 5000. The EDS file contains all information about device-
specific parameters and operating modes.
6.4 Data Protocols
Two data protocols are supported: data protocol 1 and data protocol 2.
The data protocols always have a length of 8 bytes. The data protocol is selected via the fourth
switch of the 4-way DIP switch on the PCB on the side of the read head (see chapter 6.2).
• DIP4-4 = OFF ... CAN data protocol 1
• DIP4-4 = ON ... CAN data protocol 2
Data protocol 1
Data protocol 2
