Appendix B: Communicator / Controller
connectivity
When designing a control system:
•
Communicator supports multiple infrastructure technologies: RS-232, RS-485, and RS-485
Isolated.
•
Each controller has its own specific communication card for any supported communication
infrastructure.
•
There is specific wiring required for each infrastructure.
This paper details which 1) controller communication cards to install 2) wiring infrastructure to use in
order to support each infrastructure technology.
