Network topologies

For the startup of the mvBlueCOUGAR-XD, it is first integrated in the network environment. The different options are de-
scribed in the following examples. This covers a large part of the application cases. To operate the mvBlueCOUGAR-
XD requires that the supply voltage is provided via the power connection in any case.
Example 1 shows a simply design with an operating panel for the configuration of the mvBlueCOUGAR-XD. The interac-
tion with the system is done exclusively via the digital I/Os in this example.
In the second example, the I/O signals of the mvBlueCOUGAR-XD are being analyzed by a controller. In addition, the
mvBlueCOUGAR-XD is controlled via the LAN connections. This allows the controller, e.g. to initiate the trigger or query
the status of the mvBlueCOUGAR-XD.

Network settings / LAN interface

All variants of the mvBlueCOUGAR-XD feature two 1 Gbit/s LAN interfaces for configuring and transferring the image
data. Chapter "First steps" describes how this interface is used to establish the connection between computer and
mvBlueCOUGAR-XD.
