Fig. 3.8 Connection to Multiple Controllers via RS485
TCP/IP Based System
It is also possible to network the controller via TCP/IP in order to remotely manage
the controller over internet or intranet. This is accomplished using the EverAccess
LAN adaptor (part number EA-LAN1) to convert RS232 /RS485 signals to
TCP/IP. Fig. 3.9 diagrams this type of installation.
