2.1 TIWAY I NETWORK CONFIGURATION
TIWAY
I is a multi-drop communication network which consists
of a main trunk cable
(the “spine”) and dropline cables. The network can connect
up to 254 secondaries (e.g.,
TI505 P/Cs) to a host computer. The TI505 NIM provides the interface to the network
host,
enabling the host and the P/C to communicate with each other
.
Also
included with this manual
is a “TIW

uration
of your network, which is especially important if you are using several different
types
of secondaries.
