System Configuration Using the Relay Function

The following diagram shows an example of a system in which two networks are linked
using 215IF Modules.

When the 215IF Module relay function is used, information can be exchanged with the Con-
trollers connected to a different network segment, and the entire system can be managed and
controlled by the MPE720 Programming Device.

Data can be transferred between Network 1 and Network 2 via ST#10 and ST#20. Informa-
tion about all the Controllers can be managed from the MPE720 Programming Device using
the network numbers and station numbers.
