Page 40: Node Controller Description
NC-E Node Controller Node controller that supports Ethernet motors with one active network port, 4 digital inputs, and 4 digital outputs (see page 57). This node controller supports multiple nodes (for example, MagneMotion Rockwell Automation Publication MMI-UM013B-EN-P - April 2020... -
Page 41: Nc-12 Node Controller
62). This node controller typically supports one node (for exam- ple, Merge). However, some configurations of nodes allow the node controller to support mul- tiple nodes (for example, Simple and Relay). Node Controller Hardware User Manual Rockwell Automation Publication MMI-UM013B-EN-P - April 2020... -
Page 42: Node Controller Communications
Additionally, multiple paths can be connected to one node controller through the same Ethernet chain. The motor user manual describes different motor network topologies and provides examples. MagneMotion Rockwell Automation Publication MMI-UM013B-EN-P - April 2020... -
Page 43: Configuration Recommendations
Only pass transport system communication through the Ethernet chains in the transport system. • Standard IP UDP communication, low latency. • 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet (IEEE 802.3u) compliant. • Minimum of CAT 5 cabling is required. Node Controller Hardware User Manual Rockwell Automation Publication MMI-UM013B-EN-P - April 2020... - Page 44 If all motors in a path are not part of the same Ethernet chain, all chains the path is a member of must connect to the same network as the node controller.

Page 45: Node Controller Loading
Since there is no physical limit to the number of nodes that are con- nected to the node controller, connections must be limited based on the load they place on the processor as shown in Table 3-1. Node Controller Hardware User Manual Rockwell Automation Publication MMI-UM013B-EN-P - April 2020... - Page 46 For NC-S node controllers, use the following calculation to determine NC-S loading when using a combina- tion of node connection types (that is, some Ethernet nodes and some RS-422 nodes). 85% ≥ Serial Nodes*20% + Hybrid Nodes*14% + Ethernet Nodes*5% + HLC*10% MagneMotion Rockwell Automation Publication MMI-UM013B-EN-P - April 2020...
