Using the LGE
The LGE is a gateway module that provides
communication between a workstation and a
control module network (CMnet) consisting of
fewer than 100 modules. Up to 199 gateways
can be networked together on an LGnet,
allowing the LGEs to route global information
between CMnets. Note that versions of
SuperVision earlier than 3.01 do not support
more than 60 gateways.
The LGE provides an Ethernet 10base-T port
for 10Mbps communication with the LGnet,
one console port that can be connected to a
workstation or portable computer, and an
Access Port. The console port has a 9-pin
connector that can be used to connect to a
workstation, portable computer, or modem.
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/
Internet Protocol) is a family of protocols used
for computer communications. The LGE uses
the UDP/IP (User Datagram Protocol/Internet
Protocol) of the TCP/IP family. The
workstation must be configured to
communicate with the LGE over TCP/IP as
discussed in the document TCP/IP Setup for
SuperVision.
The LGE uses the CEM module driver; for
more information, see the CEM Module Driver
document on the Automated Logic website at
www.automatedlogic.com.
