GoMax - Connecting to Multiple Gocators

This article describes how to communicate with multiple Gocators (independently) using GoMax.

Setup:  

Gocators should be connected to GoMax using ETH2 port.  Laptop/Plant Network should be connected using ETH1.  The GoMax ETH1 IP Address will be used to access Gocators.

Details:

Screenshot of Browser window connection to Gomax, showing that 2 G3 sensors are accelerated:  

Interface 2 is used for Gocators.  Gocators should be on same subnet as Interface 2 and connected to ETH2.  Interface 1 is used for configuring GoMax and also for accessing accelerated sensors.

Note that accelerated Gocators are accessed using IP Address of GoMax.  Ports are different.

Limitations:

Communication with multiple Gocators (independently, not Buddied) is not possible using an Allen-Bradley PLC because you are not able to specify different ports in Studio 5000 software.
