Issue
When ordering a new NC2 controller with 64 Nodes limit, is it possible to choose the desired comm port, or is it only port 2?
Environment
- Netcontroller II CX9680
- CX9900
- CX9940
- CX9200
Cause
Clarification on Comm port node limit
Resolution
All controllers (CX9200,CX9400, CX9900, NCII CX9680) support various upper infinet node counts, on all of these CX controllers you can split your infinet controllers in any combination between Comm1 and Comm2.
So on a NCII with 64 nodes you could have:
64 controllers on Comm1
or 64 controllers on Comm2
or any split between Comm1 and Comm2 e.g. 30 on Comm1 and 34 on Comm1.
It is a total limit for the CX controller.
There is the maximum supported network limit of 127 controllers on a Comm port if you have that many nodes enabled.
