Introduction
SVR-MMF(FIT) 1
1. Introduction
Congratulations on your recent purchase of the Monitoring &
Control Server Unit.
The SVR-MMF(FIT) is a Monitoring & Control Server with a data
logging function that incorporates all the necessary functions in a
compact unit.
The unit performs monitoring and logging of the data collected from
I/O modules (CPU-CA10(FIT)) and other stacked devices. The
various settings for the unit can be edited using an easy-to-use
browser interface.
By connecting this computer to other members of the F&eIT series
of devices, you can configure a built-in controller in an optimal
manner.
Features
-Uses the F&eIT protocol to collect data from other F&eIT series
devices.
-Monitor display of collected data.
-Collected data can be stored and maintained on a CompactFlash
card.
-Monitors input data and can use e-mail to notify of abnormal
conditions.
-Supports the F&eIT protocol for compatibility with other F&eIT
series devices.
-Achieves an ultra-compact size (52.4mm×64.7mm×94mm) no
larger than a cigarette.
-A fan-less implementation through the use of a power miser CPU.
-Packs an Ethernet I/F (10M/100M).
-Incorporates an expansion bus (connectable to F&eIT series
modules).
-As in the case of other members of the F&eIT series, a mechanism
for attachment to the 35mm DIN rail is provided in the module
system unit as a standard item. The system features a unique
configuration for its connection to a module on the side in a
stacking manner, which allows you to configure the system simply
and elegantly without using backplanes and other connecting
devices.

Introduction
SVR-MMF(FIT)2
System Configuration Image
Multiple I/O Controller Units and Monitoring & Control Server can
be installed on the same network. In this manner, when connected to
an Monitoring & Control Server a host controller can input and
output signals to and from the devices that are connected to a
subordinate I/O Controller Unit.

Explanation of names
-Monitoring & Control Server:
This refers to the product SVR-MMF(FIT).
Data can be collected from I/O Assist Servers and I/O controllers
connected to the network as well as from connected device
modules.
The collected data can be displayed graphically by the monitoring
function. Also, the internal programming function allows
monitoring to be customized easily to suit the application by, for
example, outputting alarms when upper or lower limits are
exceeded or sending notification at fixed time intervals.
The collected data can be stored on the unit’s CompactFlash card
and sent to other network hosts using e-mail or FTP.

Introduction
SVR-MMF(FIT) 3
-I/O Assist Server Unit:
The I/O Assist Server Unit supports the management function that
enables it to collect data from, and set data to, I/O Controller Units
that belong to the same group as the Group ID that is set by using
the Group ID switches of the SVR-IOA(FIT) ("Assist Server"),
which is a CONTEC product. Group IDs can be set in a range of 0
to 7.
By connecting local terminals and office terminals by means of a
Web browser, it is possible to monitor the status of the devices that
are connected to an I/O Controller Unit.
-I/O Controller Unit:
The I/O Controller Unit is a general term that refers to any
combination of this product, the CPU-CA10(FIT), with device
modules.
Each device contains a Group ID SW and a Unit ID SW; these
switches must be set so that they are unique within the network.
The I/O Controller Unit transmits data collected from the devices
to the I/O Assist Server Unit that bears a specified Group ID.
Group IDs can be set in a range of 0 to 8, whereas Unit IDs are set
in a range of 0 to 7.
When the Group ID is set to 8, no data is transmitted to the I/O
Assist Server; instead, controls can be performed directly from a
terminal to the I/O Controller Unit.
The following device modules are available:
an 8-point digital input, an 8-point digital output module
(DIO-8/8(FIT)), a 16-point digital input module (DI-16(FIT)), a
16-point digital output module (DO-16(FIT)), an 8-point input
analog/digital converter module (ADI12-8(FIT)), a 4-point output
digital/analog converter module (DAI12-4(FIT)), and a 2-point
input counter module (CNT24-2(FIT)).
Further details on this topic may be found in the respective device
module manuals.
-HUB:
This is a line concentration device that is used when a LAN is
constructed using twisted-pair cables.
The F&eIT series includes an 8-port switching HUB unit
(SH-8008(FIT)) that is equipped with a DIN rail mounting
mechanism.
