  • Page 3: Controlnet X30 Description

    The FieldServer ControlNet X30 driver can be used to emulate a single slave station on a ControlNet network. ControlNet scanners can open a connection of up to 450 Bytes in each direction to the FieldServer. Data transfers are via Scheduled Communication and therefore the FieldServer has to be scheduled on the ControlNet network using a Network Configuration Tool such as RSNetWorx or RSLogix.
