If you want to connect to a Crocus CNV with TMA, you have to specify the address of the Crocus CNV.
Refer to Section 4.2 - Connecting to a Crocus CNV with TMA.
There are two different types of addresses:
Address type Description
relative This type of addressing is meant for a network topology where the devices are
connected in-line on management level. I.e. with extended management links
(1)
between two devices. Refer to the figure below : Relative addressing.
To enable relative addressing, no address has to be specified in the device.
(1)
An extended management link is realised with a crossed cable between the
auxiliary connectors of the two devices. You also have to set the console attribute to
the value management.
absolute This type of addressing is meant for a network topology where the devices are not
connected in-line on management level. I.e. when there is a digital multipoint device
present (e.g. the Orchid DM). Refer to the figure below : Absolute addressing.
To enable absolute addressing, an address has to be specified in the device. This
is done with the attribute cms2Address. The absolute addressing range goes from 0
up to 65535.
