Intranet/Internet "Data Highway"
Manufacturers are rapidly adopting network solutions that allow them to integrate with the
global supply chain. Your DNC system MUST be compatible with the new standards.
"SAP R3" and "EDI" are only two reasons TCP/IP has rapidly evolved to be "the" manufacturing
standard.
Non-proprietary
Why buy expensive Ethernet interfaces from CNC manufacturer?
Control manufacturers often do not offer Ethernet adapters at reasonable prices. They want
you to buy a new machine, not to adapt what you have.
LanTap speaks "TCP/IP"
The INTERNET is ONE LARGE TCP/IP NETWORK!
TCP/IP is the language of the Internet.
ADR did not invent TCP/IP, it came about long ago when packet data networks were first
being conceived. Only recently, price reductions brought the cost of this fabulous communication
technology to the PC world, and now the factory networks.
Highest performance and reliability.
Error Free! Manufacturers can not afford to wait for data to be delivered at a snails pace, and
they do not have time to "dry run" programs to verify that no data has been lost. LanTap insures
data is not lost through error control procedures. RS232 only has primative parity check
to halt the whole show if a bit is bad.
LanTap Works with all FTP servers
A truly open DNC architecture! LanTap accesses data from your existing FTP server.
Don't get locked into proprietary DNC software technology!
The Best Way to interface via serial ports
It is far better to use Ethernet wiring than old-fashion RS232 wiring!
LanTap eliminates the need for long RS232 cabling - so you to have the minimum
length RS232 cables (inches). LanTap COM ports duplicate the performance
of multi-port COM board ports,
but are "distributed on a network" - remotely located where you need them.
Finally we have OPEN standards!
LanTap provides far more than simple Ethernet connectivity, it provides TCP/IP connectivity.
Use of industry standard communication protocols, insures compatibility far into the future.
IP addressing has enormous advantages
Don't be fooled by hype about MAC addressing, there is no security inherit in it.
TCP/IP Secure Sockets is the proven way to secure data.
Which is why the Internet is based on IP addressing.
Windows 95,98,NT directly support TCP/IP via "Winsock", letting you work correctly with Routers
and Domain Name Servers.
