er Ethernet interface CNC PILOT 640
Introduction
The control is shipped with a standard Ethernet card to connect the
control as a client in your network. The control transmits data via the
Ethernet card with
 the smb protocol (Server Message Block) for Windows operating
systems, or
 the TCP/IP protocol family (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol) and with support from the NFS (Network File System). The
control also supports the NFS V3 protocol, which permits higher
data transfer rates.
Connection possibilities
You can connect the Ethernet card in your control to your network
through the RJ45 connection, or directly to a PC. The connection is
metallically isolated from the control electronics.
The maximum cable length between control and a node
depends on the quality grade of the cable, the sheathing
and the type of network.
If you connect the control directly with a PC you must use
a crossover cable.
Make sure that the person configuring your control is a
network specialist.
Please note that the control performs an automatic restart
if you change the IP address of the control.
