Ethernet Network Connections
The Ethernet network allows the iControl system to communicate with
remote Ethernet devices such as the in/out positioner or reciprocator
controllers and the Ethernet couplers that receive signals from the analog
scanner controllers.
NOTE: Do not connect any device to this network that is not approved by
Nordson Finishing Technical Support or Engineering.
The required field connections are shown in Figure 3-9, along with the
connections required for sharing the in/out positioner scanner with a 2nd
booth. Refer to Section 7 for junction box and control panel drawings.
