Color Monitor Networking
2.1
Supported Protocols
All protocols supported by the Color Monitor can be used simultaneously.
Downstream Protocol
The downstream device network has fixed parameters of Modbus RTU, 9600
baud, EVEN parity.
Upstream Protocols
There are separate upstream ports for Modbus RTU and Ethernet, supporting
these protocols:
•
Modbus RTU
•
Ethernet port
•
TCP/IP, used by the web page server (see
Chapter 7, Web Pages
)
•
Modbus TCP/IP
•
SNMP Version 1
2.2
Monitor Network Connections
The Color
Monitor’s backpanel has Modbus RTU and Ethernet ports (Figure 4).
For Color Monitors embedded in PDI products (PDUs, RPPs, or JCOMMs), Modbus RTU backpanel
connections are typically made in manufacturing and extended to a terminal block or external panel
for convenient customer access. See
2.5 Customer Modbus RTU Connections
.
The customer
’s Ethernet cable is connected directly to the Monitor’s Ethernet port.
