For options C and D it is required to select the active physical media, by means of an internal selector inside the module.
The factory configuration for this selection is the 10/100BaseTX port.
Finally, internal communication with input and output modules is performed via an internal CAN bus, independent from the
one used for remote CAN BUS I/Os. This fact provides increased communication speed, as well as the possibility of
acknowledgement of modules, abnormalities, etc. As this is a serial port supporting a communications protocol, it provides
extraordinary immunity against external or internal disturbances.
