Network Functions and Communication<br />
Communication<br />
Make the following PC and terminal settings to enable transparent mode.<br />
Make the communication settings in the terminal project in HMI-Builder under [Setup] /<br />
[Peripherals].<br />
Drag the [Transparent mode] element to the required communication port (i.e. the<br />
port to which the PC is connected with the terminal).<br />
Right-click the element to configure transpar ent mode (if supported by the driver, see<br />
the driver manual for details).<br />
The settings for the port to which the PC is connected must be identical with the settings<br />
in the PC program (programming software for the controller).<br />
You can connect several terminals to the same computer in transparent mode. The<br />
following section explains how to connect two terminals. Several terminals can be<br />
connected in the same way.<br />
Cable connections When connecting two terminals to one controller, the first terminal is connected as<br />
described in the installation manual. The two terminals are connected with a cable. The<br />
cable connects to the free port of the first terminal and the corresponding port of the<br />
second terminal. If the communication distance via RS-232 ports exceeds 15 m, you will<br />
require a signal amplifier.<br />

Parameter Description<br />
IP settings This parameter is only used for communication in transparent / pass-through mode<br />
via ETHERNET. The transparent mode unit must be connected with a TCP/IP port<br />
for this purpose.<br />
The port number 6004 usually need not be changed. Select the required protocol:<br />
UDP or TCP.<br />
Controller systems This parameter is only used for communication in transparent / pass-through mode<br />
via ETHERNET. The transparent mode unit must be connected with a TCP/IP port<br />
for this purpose. Define whether you want the transparent / pass-through mode to<br />
apply for controller 1 or 2.<br />
Mode Select transparent or pass-through mode as communication type. Timeout: enter a<br />
time interval in seconds after which the terminal will change from pass-through<br />
mode to run mode if no pass-through communication has taken place.<br />
Make the communication settings in HMI-Builder under [Setup] / [Peripherals]. Make the<br />
settings for the port connected to the controller as usual. The settings for the port<br />
connected to the second terminal can be defined by the user.<br />
Make the communication settings in HMI-Builder under [Setup] / [Peripherals]. The controller<br />
must be connected to the port provided for connecting the second terminal to the<br />
first terminal. The settings on this port correspond to those of the port of the first terminal<br />
to which the second terminal is connected.<br />
Baud rate The baud rate is between 600 and 75 600 baud. We recommend you use the highest<br />
baud rate between the terminals for optimum performance. The communication speed<br />
decreases with increasing number of connected terminals (see the following table).<br />
