1756-DH485 Module Overview 1-5
Typical Applications
The first example is a typical gateway application connecting multiple networks
together.
In this example you can:
• upload and download SLC 500 and Panelview display programs.
• seamlessly communicate between SLC controllers.
• connect multiple DH-485 networks together for inter-network
communications, for example, messages between SLC 5/03 controllers.
• provide connection to other NetLinx networks, such as EtherNet/IP, to
allow a single-point access, for example: upload and download to an
SLC controller, MicroLogix controller, and Panelview display.
