Legend

1) Shared pins, means either SYNC 0/1 or Diagnostic UART can be used. SYNC 0/1 is activated as default. Can be changed via SSBL TAG-List.

2) If supported, the integrated WebServer is activated as default. Can be deactivated via Firmware TAG-List.

3) If supported, the NDIS functionality is deactivated as default. Can be activated via Firmware TAG-List. Even the NDIS functionality will internally be handeled in a second channel, physically only one channel can be accessed at netRAPID. This will have affect on the overall performance and the cycle times of the Real-Time Ethernet system.

4) LWIP TCP stack is used, which has a different API than the Hilscher  TCP stack.
