Multiple-Reader Network Operation
In multiple-reader applications, from two to six Axioms can be networked
together. A single Axiom is configured as a
Controller
for a multiple-reader
network. The Axiom Controller gathers data from other Axioms (up to five,
configured as
clients
) over an Ethernet network. The Axiom Controller then
collects and transfers the collected data over a serial communications or
network link to the host.
A simplified schematic diagram of the required items for a multiple-reader
configuration is shown below:
