THE V71 Host Communication Module is a user interface to the BayTech M Series
Data Acquisition and Control (DAC) units. This module allows a connected host
terminal to issue specific configuration or data commands to the various I/O modules
or the M Series unit main board. Multiple V71 modules can be installed in an M
Series chassis allowing certain I/O module types to send data to specific V71
modules. The V71 module allows for multiple line interface types including EIA-232,
EIA-422, and current loop and supports serial speeds up to 115.2K bps. Other
programmable features in addition to the serial interface and baud rate include word
size, stop bits, parity, XON/XOFF handshaking, and the port select code. In addition,
the V71 module allows for RJ-45 or DB-25 cabling.
THE V72TP host communications modules are a user interface for use with the
BayTech M-Series Data Acquisition and Control (DAC) units. The V72TP allows
network users, operating on a device using a TCP/IP stack with an Ethernet connection,
to access various DAC peripheral modules. The V72TP host communications module
has an Ethernet interface which provides access and control of M-Series DAC
peripheral modules via TELNET session or through user software using a direct socket
connection.
The V72TP is capable of concurrently supporting one connection per installed port. For
example, an M16 with a V72TP and fifteen V74 4-port serial I/O modules can be
operated with a separate connection to each port for a total of 60 simultaneous sessions.
The V72TP supports Ethernet II and Ethernet SNAP frame types automatically,
eliminating concern about DLC compatibility.
V93A The V93A Host Communication Modem Module is the remote user interface
to the BayTech M Series DAC units. This module features a V.32bis/V.42bis internal
modem and allows a remote host terminal to connect and issue specific configuration
or data commands to the various I/O modules or the M Series DAC unit main board.
Multiple V93A modules can be installed in a M Series chassis allowing I/O modules
to send data to specific V93A modules.
IMPORTANT: You should determine what types of peripheral modules you
have installed in your M-Series DAC unit in addition to the host module. You
should familiarize yourself with the various operation modes of the installed
peripheral modules.
