TYPICAL LAYOUTS
The following figure shows the general system layout.
Figure 4 – General System Layout
The dotted lines in the figure refer to optional hardware configurations.
The general system layout allows the QLM700 Profinet IO Gateway to connect one of the
compatible serial reading devices (2KN, 4K Scanner), collect its information and send it to a
Profinet IO Host.
In a daisy chain topology, the Profinet IO network from the Host is connected to one of the
two QLM700 Profinet IO ports. The other Profinet IO port connects either to the next Profinet
IO node or is left unconnected (sealed by the protection cap).
In a star topology, one of the two Profinet IO ports is connected to an Ethernet switch; the
other port remains unconnected.
The reading device connects to the 25-pin connector.
The ID-NET™ interface allows a network of ID-NET™ Slaves to be connected to the
QLM700's reading device which acts as the ID-NET™ Master.
The reading device auxiliary interface signals are available on the AUX connector which can
be quickly connected to a portable PC for reader
configuration.
