CONNECTING THE PANEL TO THE NV9000 SERVER
Connect the
NV9000
Server to the NV9601 Control Panel using either the 10 Base T or
10 Base 2 Control Panel rear Ethernet connector. You may not use both connectors at
the same time; the board in the Control Panel only allows one or the other. Also,
switching from one to the other requires a cold reboot of the
NV9000
server.
10 Base T Connection
If you are using a 10 Base T Ethernet connection, you must connect a hub between the
NV9000
server and the Control Panel. For example,
Figure 2-6
shows a 5-port hub
connection. This hub allows you to connect up to four panels to an
NV9000
server using
the 1 - 5 connectors (one for the server and one for each panel). If you need to connect
more than four panels, you may use the Uplink connector to connect to another hub, or
you might consider using a different hub, such as one with 12 or 24 connectors.
