Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Can the 140NWM10000 module be used in both star and linear Ethernet topologies?
   Yes, it can operate in either topology, provided the connected switches and devices support the appropriate standards.

2. How can I access the built-in web server on the module?
   Connect the module to your network, assign it an IP address, and access it via any modern browser using the FactoryCast web interface.

3. Is VLAN tagging supported on the Ethernet port?
   No, the 140NWM10000 does not support VLAN tagging; it’s designed for standard Modbus TCP/IP environments.

4. What happens if the Ethernet connection is lost during operation?
   Communication will be interrupted, and depending on the PLC programming, it may trigger fault routines or switch to fail-safe mode.

5. Does the module support SNMP traps for monitoring?
   Yes, it supports SNMP and can be configured to send traps to monitoring systems for status and diagnostic reporting.

6. Can this module be used with third-party SCADA software?
   Yes, any SCADA software that supports Modbus TCP/IP communication can interface with the module.

7. How is the IP address configured on the 140NWM10000?
   IP address can be set manually via the configuration utility or assigned dynamically through a DHCP server.

8. Does it support both copper and fiber Ethernet interfaces?
   Yes, it provides both RJ45 (10/100Base-T) and MT-RJ (100Base-FX) ports to support copper and fiber media.

9. Can the module be hot-swapped while the system is running?
   No, it is not hot-swappable. Always power down the rack before inserting or removing the module.

10. What is the recommended method to diagnose communication issues with this module?
    Start with the LED indicators on the front panel to check link/activity status, then use the FactoryCast diagnostic pages to identify network errors, mismatched IP settings, or protocol mismatches.
