Modular Equipment Controller (MEC)
Product Description
The Modular Equipment Controller (MEC) is a field
panel that mounts to a stable vertical surface or
inside an MEC enclosure. All MECs provide an MMI
port and contain a PowerPC
72 MB of memory. The MEC may either operate
stand-alone or communicate with other field panels
on the Automation Level Network (ALN). Digital and
analog Point Expansion Modules (PXMs) are also
available for point expansion.
Port Options
The following ports are available on the MEC,
depending on the model number:
One ALN port for RS-485 connection with other
field panels or Insight workstations.
One Ethernet (10/100) port for IP connection
with other field panels or Insight workstations.
One EXP port (PB) for point expansion
capability.
One MODEM/AEM port for remote ALN
connection with the Insight workstation.
Three P1 Field Level Network (FLN) ports
(FLN1, 2, and 3) or one MS/TP FLN port (FLN1).
