1 SKS network
The KBA EAE network migrates the features of the WINDOWSNT network structure. Each zone's zone management sets up zone management servers. Each zone management server forms a star topology wiring network. The zone management servers are connected to the system server (Master Server respectively). ).
Among them, the SKS network is an Arcnet network based on a star topology connection point, uses a hub to connect each segment of the cable and distributes the data to the ANK31 module of each segment, and distributes all the signals received by one port to all ports. .
The information sent from the console to the ANK31 module is passed through the I/O interface of the ANK31 module to the KT98 module for performing various printing operations such as pressurization, water supply, and ink supply.
The KBA EAE printing operating system is connected via a NET Ethernet network. The status of the I/O modules at each location of the system is displayed on the console and each I/O module is activated via the console. The I/O module has three display states on the console: red indicates that the I/O module is not activated; yellow indicates that the I/O module has been activated, but the device in the I/O module management area may be defective; blue indicates I/. The O module has been activated and the device is in a normal state.
2 ANK31 module fault judgment
The KBA EAE SKS network uses an active hub, so it has the following features: Receives data from one port and distributes and monitors data through all ports; checks data before forwarding, corrects damaged packets, and adjusts timing.
If the signal is weak but still readable, the active hub restores it to a stronger state before forwarding, which makes some devices with less than ideal performance useable.
If the signal from the ANK31 module or the KT98 is not strong enough, the active hub's signal amplifier can continue normal use of the device. In addition, active hubs can also report which devices have failed, providing some diagnostic capabilities. (To be continued)
