Network Topology 2: ENET and RS-485 Bus

Up to 30 units may be connected to the RS-485 bus. The first unit
connects to the controller via ENET, and the other units are connected
with the RS-485 bus.
Figure 2-35 shows the system of an XTR unit with the ENET option and
several XTR units connected via the RS-485 bus. Each power supply
must have its own address, defined from the front panel. Only one IP
address is required for your network (excluding computers) and only one
controlling program is required (one per XTR with ENET option as noted
in "Network Topology 1: Simple LAN" on page 2–25).
