4. Suggested Network Configurations
The following diagrams show the suggested network configurations with a Trusted TM System and the
OPC Server. In these diagrams, only three controllers are shown for clarity.
In Dual Ethernet configurations, the network connections come from two separate Communication
Interface modules on the Controller.
4.1. Single Graphics / Single Ethernet
This is the simplest configuration. A single Graphics Station runs the OPC Server and collects the
current status from the controllers. The graphics application reads the information from the server and
displays it.
