3.3 COMMUNICATIONS
The RPV311 communication may be via Ethernet and serial ports. The equipment may also operate as a
gateway over a local subnet.
Optionally the user can choose between two types of Ethernet, optical and electrical.
Gateway setup will enable the RPV311 to communicate with other equipment connected over a local
subnetwork. The Gateway can be configured by accessing the equipment gateway configuration section,
shown in Figure 10.
