• A single controller connected to a SCADA server.
• Modbus connected to a controller.
When the controller power is on, the controller automatically checks for other equipment on the network.
3.3.2 Non-plug and play connections in the network
The network supports non-plug and play equipment, if it has the correct configuration.
Non-plug and play connections include:
• Controllers that are connected using a switch to a SCADA server or AMS. A technician with network expertise must
configure the switch.
• Controllers with a redundant connection to a SCADA server or AMS.
See Hardware characteristics and configuration, DEIF Ethernet network in the Designer's handbook for
further information.
3.3.3 Configuring a switch (optional)
A switch can be used with the Ethernet connections to connect a third party system, for example, SCADA or AMS.
CAUTION
The switch must be marine-approved. The switch must also support (and be enabled for) Rapid Spanning Tree
Protocol (RSTP).
