2. Condition of connecting Mac / Chrome OS PN-CD701 is designed for using with Windows devices. It supports both Mac OS and Chromebook but there are some limitations.
3. Outline of USB type-C USB type-C is a new standard which has various capabilities for connecting IT devices. Some of these capabilities are unique to USB type-C. Please see descriptions below how to utilize new functions. Major functions of USB type-C - Connect devices and data transfer (Same as USB 2.0 but higher speed) - “DP alt mode” which means that it works as a DisplayPort to transmit video.
3. Outline of USB type-C Caution for running USB type-C cable ◆ When a USB type-C cable is connected, the functions shown it the table below are available. Function of USB type-C Available/ Not Available DP Alt mode(Video stream) Available Network * Available Touch (Data Transport) Available Power Delivery Available(MAX 60W) [Note] “In case you using USB-C cable from your market (not delivered with PN-CD701), the take care the this cable should be supported power charging of 60W or more.” Table.
3. Outline of USB type-C Caution for running USB type-C cable ◆ USB type-C Out can be used for video output. • • • • Only video signals are output from USB type-C Out. The signal of Wireless Cast can not be output. Do not convert the cable from the USB type-C cable. Only the same display or allowed display is supported for the display connected to the Out side. Figure. Rear Left View ◆ About “Multi board” You can display video on a second device using USB-C Out.
4. Conditions of network connections to the PN-CD701 4-1. Common functions of both LAN ports PN-CD701 has 2 wired LAN ports. One is “LAN 1”, and the other is “LAN 2”. Each port serves a different function, see below for details of each port. LAN 1 : LAN port for connecting external PC/s LAN 1 connection is routed to USB type-C and USB-B ports. The connected PC device will receive internet access via the USB type-C or USB-B port. Fig.
4. Conditions of network connections to the PN-CD701 4-2. Use case User who has a compatible USB type-C connection on their PC will also get a LAN connection via the USB type-C cable from PN-CD701. Fig.2: LAN connection diagram IoT sensor Advantage: Smart connectivity User can quickly connect video, touch, LAN and power delivery by using only one USB type-C cable.
4-3. Technical background 4-3-1. Network isolation • Each LAN port (LAN 1, LAN 2) are separate and will have different IP addresses. • There are no network management devices (routers or switches) inside. • Works with different LAN settings. “LAN 1” is completely isolated from the internal controller of PN-CD701 So there is no security breach concerns from connected PC devices.
4-3. Technical background 4-3-2. Network requirements for SWS (IoT sensor data) Tips: Required network connection for IoT sensors is always LAN 2 Internet connections Internet connections are available using intranet. If network devices filter IoT packets, they can accessed though router, proxy, GW/FW. Condition of IP address It can use DHCP. And supports both IPv4 and IPv6.
