User’s Guide
Located at the rear of the system controller are (typically) six Ethernet ports and two serial ports
(COM1 and COM2):
The ports of the older model of the NV960 are organized slightly differently. There is only one
serial port (COM1):
These are the networks available at the ports:
• Control Net
Provides communication between two system controllers being used as a redundant pair.
 This a private network not to be used for any other purpose.
• House Net
Allows the system controller to communicate with your facility’s computer network and with
PCs running NV9000-SE Utilities, GUIs, and other software.
• Panel and Router Nets 1 and 2
Connect to routers and control panels. Any command initiated by an operator through a
control panel is sent to the system controller, which interprets the command, and then
sends appropriate instructions (such as “take”) to the appropriate router(s).
