System Configurations
Inter Register Communications
Each SPS 1000 includes a standard Ethernet communications port. This port is used for all
register-to-register communications. Except for 2-registers configurations, registers are
linked by connecting each register to an Ethernet hub.
2-Register Configuration
Two registers can be connected without a hub by a special cable. See "Crossover Cable" on
the following page for cable construction.
3 or More Register Configurations
For example, a 3-register installation might look like this:
Contact your SAM4s sales representative to order the appropriate Ethernet hubs. Hubs will
be stocked in 5 port and 8 port configurations.
