Ekip Link is a communication accessory which allows Ekip Touch to be integrated into an internal Ethernet
network with ABB proprietary protocol.
The following functions can be performed with the remote module:
• Programmable Logic
• Zone selectivity
To perform these functions, the system units involved must be equipped with their own Ekip Link and for each
of these, the IP addresses of all the other Ekip Link connected must have been entered.
Each devices is defined as an Actor in the Link network.
Each Ekip Link can interface with up to 15 actors, of which up to 12 for the Zone Selectivity function.
The ports used by the module are:
Port Service
18/udp ABB proprietary
319/udp
IEEE 1588
320/udp
68/udp DHCP client
switches for which support for level L2 multicast is declared in the datasheet.
If the network also includes routers, multicast must be enabled and configured in all the level L3 VLAN
interfaces.
bit according to any combination of the status bits of an actor of which the IP address has been entered.
These four bits are indicated as Statuses A B C and D; they are remotely programmable and their value is
transmitted to the device to which Ekip Link is connected
Notes
In the case of rapid exchanges of information among ABB devices
Valid with IEEE 1588 protocol enabled
DHCP client enabled alternatively as Static address = On
