Other programs in the MultiNet receiver evaluate and distribute the data to an
appropriate application on this machine or another located on the LAN, WAN or
Internet. These other applications may re-distribute the data, store it in a database
for later retrieval, send it out a local RS232 serial COM port, send it out a printer
port or perform whatever function the application is designed. A single MultiNet
Receiver can have multiple IP-Link Transceivers installed locally or anywhere
connected by a TCP/IP connection. This capability allows the IntelliNet network
to be expanded virtually to any location desired that is serviced by the LAN,
WAN or Internet.
1.3 7170 IP-Link Transceivers:
These units communicate to the MultiNet Receiver via a direct Ethernet
connection, LAN, WAN or the Internet. Models have an integrated Modem to
communicate using a phone line if the TCP/IP connection is down. The IP-Link
acts much like a subscriber that re-transmits its received data packets via the
TCP/IP connection rather than via an RF transmission. This allows the IP-Link
Transceiver to be located outside of RF communication with a central station
receiver and the expansion of the IntelliNet system into previously unreachable
locations. They should be installed with the same care that a central station
receiver would as they are usually the primary path to the central receiver
location. Multiple IP-Link Transceivers can be installed in a single RF cloud to
act as backup or to provide multiple paths for subscribers in a geographical area.
Each IP-Link Transceiver can operate at the same frequency or at another.
Operating at other frequencies allows for an overcrowded region to get a new
clear frequency and still be able to be managed by the same receiver. It also
allows the expansion into other regions, states, countries or islands where
regulations may require operation at a different frequency than your other IP-Link
Transceivers.
1.4 Document Conventions:
<Key> Characters between angled brackets refer to a specific key on the
keyboard.
Example <Enter> means to press the Enter Key.
{variable} Characters between these braces refer to a value that will vary
dependant on any number of circumstances or configurations.
Example: {username} means to replace {username} with the
appropriate user name.
Example 2: {IP Address} would require a valid IP address be
typed in place of the label.
[Screen Text] Square brackets have several uses. Occasionally refers to a
Graphical Button, usually selected by clicking on the screen
graphic.
Also used to indicate a selection available by choosing from an
available list.
May also be used to show actual characters displayed.
