Ethernet Network Configuration
See Figure 4-1. Touch the Network Configure button on the System
Configuration screen. This opens the Network Status screen (Figure 4-2)
and provides access to the network configuration tools. Only Nordson
CSRs or engineers can configure the network.
There are two networks used in the iControl system:
The Ethernet (Remote I/O) network provides communications with remote
system devices (nodes) for the positioner, reciprocator, and analog scanner
controllers.
The CAN network provides communications with gun driver cards, and for
iFlow modules in standard systems, or to pump control cards and manual
gun controllers in Prodigy systems.
Network Status Functions
Use the Network Status screen to check the status of the Ethernet network
and the CAN network and to access the Node and Host Configuration
screens.
The Node icons on this screen represent the devices on the Ethernet
network. Green means the system is communicating normally with the
nodes. Red means there is a problem with the network connections or the
node. Touching the icon opens the Node Status screens. Refer to Section
9, Network and Node Status for information on the Node Status screens
and corrective actions for error codes.
The CAN Status button opens the CAN Status screen. Your Nordson CSR
can use this screen to diagnose problems with the CAN network.
The LAN Reset button resets the Ethernet network. This function is also
used for diagnostics.
