Network Configuration
Network Configuration Principle Using Unity Pro
At a Glance
With Unity Pro, the installation of a network takes place from the application browser and from the hardware configuration editor.
The method involves the following four steps:
creation of a logic network, configuration of the logic network, declaration of the module or of the PCMCIA card (for Premium), association of the card or of the module with the logic network.
These four methods are presented further on in this documentation.
NOTE: The advantage of this method is that from the second step onwards, you can design your communication application (you do not need the hardware to start working) and use the simulator for functional testing of it.
NOTE: The first two steps are carried out in the project browser and the following two in the hardware configuration editor.
This manual introduces the method. For details of the various network configurations, please refer to the following documentation:
Ethernet configuration for Premium (see Premium and Atrium Using Unity Pro, Ethernet
Network Modules, User Manual) and Ethernet configuration for Modicon M340 (see Modicon
M340 for Ethernet, Communications Modules and Processors, User Manual),
Modbus Plus configuration (see Premium and Atrium Using Unity Pro, Modbus Plus Network,
User Manual),
Fipway configuration (see Premium and Atrium using Unity Pro, Fipway Network, User Manual).
