Pressure Systems, Inc. Model 9116 User’s Manual

2.3.3Mounting and Module Dimensions

See the Model 9116 Data Sheet for exact dimensions of the module. A detailed mechanical drawing is also included in Appendix E.

2.3.4Network Communications Hookup

Every NetScanner™ System Intelligent Pressure Scanner contains a Host Port, allowing it to be interconnected in a network with other modules and a host computer. Model 9116 has an Ethernet Host Port using TCP/IP and UDP/IP transmission protocols.

2.3.4.1Ethernet Host Port Hookup

The Ethernet Host port of every Model 9116 Intelligent Pressure Scanner module, and its host computer, may be interconnected in a “star” network via a standard 10BaseT or 100BaseT, half or full duplex hub or switch. These standard devices will have their own power requirements.

Hubs will treat the host computer connection and all NetScanner™ System module connections alike. Switches may provide, or negotiate different speeds and/or different handshaking on its various ports. The Model 9116 will auto-negotiate through the hub or with the switch, for a half or full duplex connection at 10BaseT or 100BaseT speeds, establishing the best connection available. Ethernet communications pin assignments for the Model 9116 electrical connector are shown in Figure 2.2. See Figure 2.3 for typical network topology.
