How Information Moves Through the Network
When an operator issues a command over the ALN network through a field panel, that
field panel validates the command, determines where to send it, and then passes the
command to the destination over the network.
Example
In the figure
Commanding Over an Automation Level Network
, the operator at the
TALON View workstation, located in the lower level of the building, issues a command
to control the main air-handling unit (AHU) of the building. This command is sent by the
communication network to the field panel located on the top floor.
