Neti-Link
works as a pair of devices communicating over an ethernet network.
Each Netiom-Link transmits a packet of data to its opposite end
containing information about its input status. Upon receipt of this
data the receiving device changes its outputs to reflect the new
message data.
In
this way all 16 inputs on one Neti–Link are reflected on the
outputs of the second Neti-Link. In a similar way serial data coming
into one port will be transmitted out of the serial port of the
second Netiom-Link.
Messages
between the two modules is sent periodically at a user defined rate.
If a change in the input conditions is detected or a new serial data
stream is arrives then this period is over-ridden and a new message
is sent immediately. In this way network traffic is kept to a minimum
while response time is maximised.
One
of the outputs can be programmed to show the current status of the link.
Netiom-Link
will work over both local and wide area networks such as the internet.
Special
interface software is included which can be use to configure Netiom
and download web pages via a PCs serial port. Network settings can be
manually set or automatically obtained from a DHCP server (usually an
ADSL router).
