    8.1.5 Connecting to the SPS with PC A PC connection to the SPS 4000 is required for the data exchange via the Froling visualisation software or for analysis via the System Diagnostic Manager. For a connection to the SPS 4000, the Ethernet interface integrated on the back of the display is used.
  • Page 183: Direct Connection To Sps 4000

    If the system is not integrated into a local area network, the PC is connected directly to the Ethernet interface of the SPS 4000 with a cross-over cable. A cross-over cable is used for direct connections between two network- compatible devices. The difference compared to a conventional network cable is that the signals for sending and receiving data are crossed.
