As shipped, the Supervisor Box (A) contains the
Supervisor Module (36), power supply, switch,
Ethernet switch, and one fiber optic converter. Install
additional fiber optic converters as needed, one for
each station.
Installed inside each Supervisor Box, the Supervisor
Module contains the software that runs the
Intelligent Paint Kitchen. The Supervisor Module
communicates with Pump Control Modules (PD),
Tank Control Modules (TD), and Variable Frequency
Drives/Inverters (B) using Modbus RTU. The
Supervisor Module sets up a Modbus addressing
data table to create a large datamap with each node
slotted in a specific set of addresses.
The Supervisor Box can communicate via Modbus
TCP with the Touchscreen Box (J).
The Supervisor Module can manage up to 20
stations. Up to 10 fiber optic converters can fit in the
Supervisor Box. If additional fiber optic converters
are needed beyond what fits in the Supervisor Box,
an Expansion Box can be used to create more space.
