Multi-DNC Configurations Standalone Configuration Comtrol RocketPort board Shown with a Comtrol RocketPort board. This system does not require a Network, but can be connected to CAD/CAM over a LAN so that each CNC controller can get its' files directly from the CAD/CAM workstation. Ethernet LAN - 328 feet maximum between nodes Comtrol RocketPort board installed in th is PC Network Hub RS-232 Cabling up to 250 Feet 20 feet maximum from PC Multi-DNC installed on PC running Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows NT or Windows 98 Network File Server or CAD/CAM System RocketPort RS-232/RS-422 Distribution Box The DNC PC can be on the shop floor, or it can be set up in a cleaner area, depending on what type of RS-232 hardware is used. The Standalone installation is the most common type of Multi-DNC system. Standalone Configuration Comtrol Device Master RTS Hub Shown with a Comtrol Device Master RTS Hub. This system does require a Network, and the Comtrol Hub is installed in a central location on the shop floor to minimize the RS-232 cabling distance to each CNC Machine. The Multi-DNC computer is normally connected to CAD/CAM over a LAN so that each CNC controller can get its' files directly from the CAD/CAM workstation. Ethernet LAN 328 feet maximum between nodes Network Hub Comtrol Device Master Hub with 100Base-T Ethernet and RS-232 ports Multi-DNC installed on PC running Windows XP, 2000, Windows NT, or Windows 98 RS-232 Cabling up to 250 Feet Network File Server or CAD/CAM System Additional Comtrol Device Master Hubs can be "daisy chained" from the first hub Spectrum CNC Technologies Phone 951-549-0755 Web site www.multi-dnc.com Client-Server Configration - Requires a LAN, all DNC computers must be using TCP/IP Protocol What is a Multi-DNC Server ? A Multi-DNC Server is a Multi-DNC system with a Server License that is connected to CNC Machine tools by multi-port RS-232 hardware and is also connected to an Ethernet LAN by TCP/IP protocol. Multiple Multi-DNC Servers can co-exist on a LAN, and multiple Multi-DNC Clients can access them. Multi-DNC Servers can run under Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows NT, or Windows 98 . What is a Multi-DNC Client ? A Multi-DNC Client is basically the front end interface of Multi-DNC connected over a LAN to a Multi-DNC Server, but without any direct connections to the CNC controls. Multi-DNC Clients can access Multi-DNC Servers for Sending, Receiving, initializing or stopping the Remote mode, and can also edit the Machine Connections at the Server computer. A Multi-DNC Client can only access one Multi-DNC Server at a time, but can log into multiple servers across the LAN.

Client-Server allows any connected Client to do 99% of the functions possible from the Server interface itself. Management personnel can just "watch" what is happening at the Server(s) from their connected computers, or actively "make it happen". The Server computer can be put into a more secure area on the manufacturing shop floor, and be administered remotely across the network. Multi-DNC Clients can be installed on PC based CAD/CAM workstations so that the CNC programmers can actively initiate sending programs to CNC controls from their programming area.
