Parameterization of the Physical Media

Overview

The runtime data exchange between the controller and the HMI is executed on different media, depending on the selected hardware.

Configuration Example for Vijeo-Designer

The default settings below are valid for communications between M241 and an HMI panel via serial line RS-485 using an XBTZ9008 cable (serial line SubD-RJ45).

Configuration of M241 with HMI panel:
