The node selected for auto configuration does not have to be the first module that
is directly connected to the PC. The module at the other end of the line can also

7.5.1. Automatic detection of the position of the module at the opposite side
The cable connections between the left and right Ethernet connection can be
used if the module is going to be installed at the opposite side frame of the con-
veyor system. When it is correctly connected, it is detected by the auto configura-
tion program, and the flow rate is configured accordingly.
Figure 23 shows an example of the detection of the opposite position.
