4.2.3 Using the data interfaces
Important! Only one of several selectable functions can be allocated to each interface.
The logical AUX interface of the RFU630 can operate the serial data interface, USB interface
and Aux port of the Ethernet interface in parallel.
In a similar manner, the logical HOST interface of the RFU630 can operate the serial data
interface and the Host port of the Ethernet interface in parallel. The physical RS-232 and
RS-422/485 Host interfaces cannot be used simultaneously.
However, the data released by means of a command string is only output on the interface
on which the request was received.
For output in real time, one of the two ports of the Ethernet interface must be selected.

= Output of the same function simultaneously possible via the interfaces
= Access only makes practical sense via one of the interfaces (risk of collision)
