RS 232 port to communicate between cFP 2100 and Multiple cFP 1808

Hello All,

 

I am using one cFP-2100 (controller) and two cFP-1808 (network contoller) for a project.

 

All the three devices have Ethernet port, so i can connect to a network switch for communicating with the Host PC.

 

My question is:

 

All the three devices have Serial Ports (RS 232) too, Can i use those ports to communicate between the three devices (1 controller and 2 Net. controllers) and use the ethernet port in the controller (2100) only for communicating with a Host PC?

 

If this is possible, how to do the RS 232 cabling ?

 

Regards

John

Hi bjsprem,

 

You can connect network modules to the controller with serial.   This KB shows how to do this.  Hope this helps!
