System Overview
2.2 System Example
The illustration below depicts a system consisting of panels networked
on an AUTROLON network. For compliance with C.E.N. regulations
(EN-54), and for optimal safety, the AUTROLON must be installed as
a ring loop. A maximum of 32 system units can be networked in this
way.
In the example, Al_Com communication is used to communicate with
standard loop units and standard Ex-certified loop units.
AutroFieldBus is used to communicate with a BSD-340 interface
(which is used to interface with a PowerLoop). An additional interface
can connect multiple system units to external systems using either
single-line Ethernet or dual serial (RS232).
