Frequently Asked Questions
- What is MAP 3.0 protocol used for?
- A: MAP (Manufacturing Automation Protocol) connects industrial devices in factory networks.
- Can I connect this module to modern Ethernet switches?
- A: Yes, but ensure the switch supports 10 Mbit/s and AUI or twisted-pair connections.
- Does this module support more than one connection?
- A: No, the module supports only one overall connection at a time.
- What is the maximum ambient temperature without forced ventilation?
- A: 40°C maximum. Above that, forced ventilation is required up to 55°C.
- Is the configuration software included?
- A: Yes, the package includes a configuration CD with all necessary software.
