Ethernet interface (for software 548431-05)
Introduction
The control is shipped with a standard Ethernet card to connect the
control as a client in your network.
The control transmits data via the Ethernet card with:
The SMB protocol (Server Message Block) for Windows
operating systems, or
The TCP/IP protocol family (Transmission Control Protocol/
Internet Protocol) and with support from the NFS (Network File
System). The control also supports the NFS V3 protocol, which
permits higher data transfer rates
Connection possibilities
You can connect the Ethernet card in your control to your network
over the RJ45 connection, or directly to a PC. The connection is
metallically isolated from the control electronics.
The maximum cable length between control and a node
depends on the quality grade of the cable, the sheathing
and the type of network.
If you connect the control directly with a PC you must
use a crossover cable.
Have a network specialist configure the control.
Please note that the control performs an automatic
restart if you change the IP address of the control.
