E - N E T ( E t h e r n e t N e t w o r k )
To avoid the use of an RS485 port a method has been developed that uses the Ethernet port as a C-NET
port.
The basic principle of the E-NET is to allow a group of controllers to be virtually wired together by sharing
a membership list. Only units belonging to the list will be able to talk to each other.
The master controller is the controller that has an E-Net socket connection to Axiom software (available in
AxiomXA
TM
software in Advance tab of Network Configuration).
ENET option needs to be enabled in device locator as well.
Once checked only E-NET communications will be used.
The IP address has to fall in the range of the subnet mask in order for UNC-500s to talk to each other and
duplicate addresses are not allowed.
E-NET communication can be encrypted or unencrypted.
E-Net Encryption
RBH system uses AES-256 bit encryption, for secure communication over Ethernet. This communication
can be either between the host computer & master panel or amongst the master & slave controllers.
Both Master panel & the host computer needs to be provide with the AES key. Also for communication
amongst the slave panels ENET feature has to be enabled.
Before E-net configuration, all the UNC-100s need to be upgraded to Firmware 10.28.
