8. Communication
8.1. Ethernet Communication
Communication and control for Capstone microturbines is made to a single microturbine or to a
group of microturbines, as shown in Figure 54. External connections are made to the C1000
series controller in the EPDB (see Figure 12). Refer to the C1000S/C800S/C600S Technical
Reference (Table 1) for a detailed description of all C1000 series controller connections. For
multiple units a Capstone Logic Controller (CLC) must be used.
To use CRMS, refer to the CRMS Maintenance Edition Technical Reference (Table 1) and
connect a PC to the C1000 series controller as follows:
1. Connect a Cat 5/Cat 6 cable between the PC Ethernet port and the external Ethernet
connector on the C1000 series controller. Use CRMS to establish communication with
the controller.
2. Use CRMS to establish a TCP/IP connection with the controller.
