In this layout a single scanner functions as a Slave node on a Fieldbus network. The data is 
transmitted  to  the  Host  through  an  accessory  Fieldbus  interface  board  installed  inside  the 
CBX500 connection box. 
Scanner  configuration  can  be  accomplished  through  the  Auxiliary  interface  using  the 
Genius™ configuration program or Genius™ based Host Mode programming. 
In  Local  Echo  communication  mode,  data  is  transmitted  on  the  RS232  auxiliary  interface 
independently from the Fieldbus interface selection. 
When  On-Line  Operating  mode  is  used,  the  scanner  is  activated  by  an  External  Trigger 
(photoelectric sensor) when the object enters its reading zone.
