Network Communication

Note that to fully use the network communication capability of the

AutoMax Programming Executive software V3.x, all Network

Communication modules on a given network must be M/N 57C404

(or later). An earlier version of the module (M/N 57404) can be used

in the system, but the user will need to connect directly to the rack

containing the Network module in order to communicate with that

rack with a personal computer. M/N 57404 cannot be mixed with any

other version on the same network. If Network module versions on a

particular network are mixed, the communication capability of the

network will be that of the earliest version of the Network module.
