EZ-NET network topologies,
addressing and functions
The EZ-NET allows the configuration of a line topology. There
are two wiring methods which can be used for the required
addressing options:
• “Loop through the unit” wiring arrangement,
• Wiring arrangement using a T connector and a spur line.
Loop through the unit wiring method
With this wiring method it is possible to implement the
addressing of the stations via station 1 or the EZSoft. If the line
is interrupted, the network is no longer operational from this
point in the network.
T connector and spur line
Each device must be addressed individually with this wiring
method by:
• Downloading the program,
• Downloading the address with EZSoft,
• Using the display or
• The device is already assigned an address.
If a spur line is removed on a station, all other devices in the
network remain functional.
J
CAN has been used as the basis for the design of the
EZ-NET network. The messages have been adapted and
optimized to suit the requirements of the EZD environment.
J
The spur line between the T connector and the device must
not exceed 0.3 m. Otherwise communication via EZ-NET
may be impaired.
