Turbo Ring DIP Switch Settings
EDS-600 series switches are managed redundant plug-and-play Ethernet
switches. The proprietary Turbo Ring protocol was developed by Moxa to
provide better network reliability and faster recovery time. Moxa Turbo Ring’s
recovery time is less than 300 ms (
Turbo Ring
) or 20 ms (
Turbo Ring
V2
) —compared to a 3- to 5-minute recovery time for commercial
switches—decreasing the possible loss caused by network failures in an
industrial setting.
Four DIP switches are located on the top panel of the EDS-600 to allow users
to set up Turbo Ring easily within seconds. If you do not want to use a
hardware DIP switch to set up Turbo Ring, you can use a web browser, Telnet,
or console to disable this function.
NOTE
Refer to the
Turbo Ring DIP Switch
section and
Using
Communication Redundancy
section in the User’s Manual for
detailed information about the settings and usage of
Turbo Ring
and
Turbo Ring V2
.
