Ethernet Module Error Message

At power up, the serial to ethernet device will generate an error message if it cannot

properly handshake with the 5X00 hardware. If this error occurs, communication

(AquaManager and 5X00 alarm emails) will not work via TCP/IP. The error could

be a result of incorrect serial to ethernet device installation or a faulty ethernet

device. The error message will appear in the event log.

SMS Messaging with Ethernet Module

SMS (Short Message Service) or text messaging is a service for sending messages to

your cell phone or mobile device. To use SMS messaging, enter the email address

in the Menus → System → Communications→ Ethernet →Email address. See Ap-

sending text messages.

Node Network

Menus → System → Communications → Network

A node network refers to either one stand alone master node and/or one master

node and up to 31 configured and wired slave nodes. Node networks with at least

one slave are physically connected using RS485 protocol see page 62 for additional

information. Only the master node is configured for serial or ethernet module

communication.

On a network with at least one slave the master continuously queries enabled slaves

on the network. The master is the access point for the entire network. This includes

Configuring the 5X00

AquaManager communication and sending of 5200A/5X00 alarm emails. Slave

nodes must be configured with a slave address.

Note:

- Multiple node networks communicating via direct connect (RS232) require

separate PC COM ports for simultaneous AquaManager mapping and auto-

polling.

Note:

- The slave address appears as the slave subnode at node properties.

- Configure slave addresses with numbers of 1 through 31. Slave addresses of

32 to 64 will be used in future releases and should not be configured with the

current release.

6. Disable the Termination Relay on all devices except the first and last

device on the network. Menus → System → Communications → Network
