9 ADwin System with Ethernet Interface
The first step The first step to install your ADwin system is always the installation of the
ADwin-CDROM (chapter 3 of this manual).
Please pay attention to the version number of the CDROM, especially if you
have an update. Depending on the interface, older versions do not always
have the necessary drivers.
System requirements When working with the operating system Windows 95, <Winsock2> must be
installed. Please pay attention to the notes during the installation of the ADwin
CDROM. When using other Windows operating systems, this step is not nec-
essary.
Functions The following ADwin systems are available with an ADwin Ethernet interface:
– ADwin-light-16 with integrated Ethernet interface in the design
L16-EURO-ENET and L16-EXT-ENET
– ADwin-Gold:
• ADwin-Gold-ENET with integrated Ethernet interface
• Gold-ENET-Conv (external Ethernet link adapter)
– ADwin-Pro Modules:
• Pro-CPU-T10-ENET with integrated Ethernet interface
• Pro-CPU-T9-ENET with integrated Ethernet interface
• Pro-ENET - additional module for ADSP processor modules
With the "bootloader" option you can boot an ADwin system automatically
when starting the ADwin Ethernet interface, as well as automatically loading
and starting processes.
With the ADwin Ethernet interface you can access one or more ADwin systems
from one or more PCs. The connection between PC and ADwin Ethernet inter-
face can be made via:
– a "cross-over" cable (standard delivery)
– a separate network (network cables not part of the standard delivery)
– an intranet (network cables not part of the standard delivery)
– possibly even by internet
Pay attention to the following notes when using an ADwin Ethernet interface:
There are no restrictions for selecting a router, switch, hub or network card.
Supported standards: 10MBit/s and 100MBit/s
(automatic recognition)
Required cable quality Category 5
Max. cable length from the ADwin
system to the next switch / hub 100 m
