The NCM coordinates and supervises the control activities for all objects and control loops connected to it by using Network Expansion Units (NEUs) and Application Specific Controllers (ASCs).
Notes:
- All NCM types are supported by the NIE. The minimum NCM firmware revision levels are listed in Table 1. All supported NCM models require Metasys person-machine interface (PMI) software Release 12.04 or later.
- The NIE55 supports NCM45 10-2s (N2) and NCM45 20-2s (LON), but the NIE55 as a validated device supports the NCM45 10-2s (N2) only.
- All NCM models must be networked to the NIE using Ethernet/IP protocols. ARCNET® based NCM models require use of Metasys Embedded Ethernet Router.
