Turbo Ring DIP Switch Settings
EDS-P510 series are plug-and-play managed redundant 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.
There are 4 Hardware DIP Switches for Turbo Ring on the top panel of
EDS-P510 that can help setup the Turbo Ring easily within seconds. If you do
not want to use a hardware DIP switch to setup the Turbo Ring, you can use a
web browser, telnet, or console to disable this function.
NOTE
Please refer to the
