4.14 Options – Ethernet card
An optional Ethernet card is available for fastening data communication over an Ethernet
network (TCP/IP – 10 / 100BaseT). Current developed communication protocols include
ToolsNet Open Protocol (Atlas Copco), Q-DAS (Qs-Stat), FECNet (proprietary protocol), Part
ID / Model select via Ethernet as well as custom protocols as required by customer specifica-
tions.
The Ethernet module is installed in the back of the controller located in the top right auxiliary
opening. (The Real Time Clock module (RTC) should be removed when using an Ethernet
card module.) Connections are made to the RS232 port as well as the TB1 terminal strip.
The Ethernet module is set-up using an onboard browser - based configuration firmware that
allows a laptop to connect to the module by an Ethernet connection and set-up the module
without installing additional software. This configuration allows you to set-up the Ethernet
module to communicate over various networks (described above).
For configuration, an Ethernet CROSSOVER cable (FEC Part # A3X126-07-YLW-M) must
be used between the configuration computer and the Ethernet module.
