MrOrange can communicate with RxUniverseRx-Universe. It is important to understand that the current configuration setup of “MrOrange” may bring some limitations to some Labs.
As it stands the “MrOrange” Trace/blocker combo is the central point of communication to RxUniverseRx-Universe. In other words, the “MrOrange” Edger it is not capable of communication directly to RxUniverse therefor , therefore jobs that have been traced or blocked on any other equipment other then the connected “MrOrange” Trace/blocker combo can not be edged on the “MrOrange” Edger. This also means that any Jobs traced and blocked by the “MrOrange” Tracer/Blocker combo cannot be edged on any other edger then than the very same one that it is connected to.
Physical Setup
MrOrange can connect to RxUniverse Rx-Universe via RS-232 only, it is not capable of communicating via TCP/IP.
1- From the Tracer/Blocker unit you will need to run a Serial Cable (RS-232) to a computer running RxUniverse Rx-Universe Device sessions.
2- From the Edger to the Tracer/Blocker unit you need to have a RJ45 Crossover cable to connect between the Tracer/Blocker RJ45 Port to the Edger RJ45 Port. The port on the Edger is located under the top tray.
...
3- To verify the communication between the Tracer/Blocker and Edger you will see a green checkmark on the Top top right Corner corner Icon.
4- Next you need to connect the provide provided “MrOrange” bar code scanner to the Tracer/Blocker, there should be a second bar code scanner attached to the Edger.
5- Next step you will need to scan the proper barcodes to enable OMA Communication on the Tracer/Blocker. Note that you don’t need to scan the bar code on the Edger since it will not communicate directly to RxUniverseRx-Universe.
- Scan the Configuration by Default and the machine will reboot
- Scan the Configuration VCA and the machine will reboot
- Scan JOBPUB. The machine will not reboot on this barcode but a “beep” will indicate that the setting has been changed
6- You need to add the MrOrange to the Rx-Universe devices. Follow this link → how to add a device in Rx-Universe
