A Server of Control can simultaneously interface with objects over both the TCP/IP and RS232 protocols.
To configure a connection between Server of Control and Control Agent/Archive:

1. Go to the configuration pane for the Server of Control object (Fig. 5.2 – 5.2—1).

Fig. 5.2 – 5.2—1 Connection configuration

1. In the TCP/IP port (Agent) field, enter the port number for TCP/IP communication with remote objects (see Fig. 5.2 – 5.2—1, 1).
2. In the TCP/IP port (Archive) field, enter the port number for TCP/IP communication with the Archive Search module (see Fig. 5.2 – 5.2—1, 2).
3. For the RS232 protocol, indicate the following parameters: First COM port number, Number of COM ports, COM port speed, and COM port format (see Fig. 5.2 – 5.2—1, 3).
4. All objects connected to Server of Control must be specified in the settings for the Server of Control object (see Fig. 5.2 – 5.2—1, 4). To add an object:
   1. Click the Add button (see Fig. 5.2 – 5.2—1, 5). A dialog box for adding an object appears (Fig. 5.2 – 5.2—2).

Fig. 5.2 – 5.2—2 Adding an object

1. 1. In the ID field, enter the object's ID. The value in this field must match the ID field in the Control Agent settings (see Fig. 5.2 – 5.2—2, 1).
   2. In the Object code field, enter the object's sequence number (Fig. 5.2 – 5.2—2, 2).
   3. In the Name field, enter the object's name (see Fig. 5.2 – 5.2—2, 3). The address of the object's location can be used as the name.
   4. To add the object, click OK (see Fig. 5.2 – 5.2—2, 4).
   5. Repeat steps 5.1 to 5.5 for all objects that you want to add.
2. Click the Apply button.

Connection configuration is complete.
