Communication
The KE2 Evap uses standard TCP/IP communication. The con-
troller is equipped with an RJ-45 female connector to connect
to Ethernet cable.
To communicate with the controller, the user will use a web
browser to see the KE2 MasterView. The information is stored
on the controller, so special software is not required.
A standard Ethernet cable should be used between the periph-
eral device and the controller. One end is connected to the
controller, and the other to the Ethernet port on the PC or Mas-
terView. The Ethernet port will look similar to a telephone jack.
The difference is the Ethernet port is larger with 8 wires instead
of 6.
In installations where multiple evaporators are piped to a single
condenser, networking the controllers is required. This prevents
damage to the system by synchronizing the defrost cycles. Net-
worked controllers have an additional safety layer to protect the
system. When networked, the controllers share information,
such as air temperature, to allow a controller in alarm mode to
continue to provide refrigeration until the system is serviced.
When networking multiple controllers an ethernet switch or
router is required. KE2 Network Router is available in a 4-port
and KE2 Switch in an 8-port model. The KE2 Router includes
wireless access. The 8-port switch should be used for larger
networks. Multiple switches can be ganged together to cre-
ate additional ports for the network. When necessary, the lo-
cal Network Adminstrator should be contacted to facilitate the
network installation.
