1. Overview
The SH ARC-M3-HUB is a modular active ARCNET HUB with up to 3 bi-
directional data channels (called ports in the following). The SH ARC-
M3-HUB supports the implementation of expanded ARCNET networks in
industrial settings. The entirely modular concept allows the use of a wide
variety of transfer media.
It regenerates completely the received signal including the signal level
as well as phase distortions. Thus it allows practically unlimited
expansion of ARCNET networks. Selecting between the various port
modules allows the use of a variety of transfer media such as coax
cables, fiber optics and twisted pair cables. The bit rate is set
automatically within the range of 19kBps to 10 Mbps.

5.3 Indicators
The SH ARC-M3-HUB offers a variety of possible diagnoses helpful at
start-up or during operations. The network status is continuously
checked parallel to all other hub functions.

(semi-) defective nodes may falsify this sequence: the status LED will
flicker. The red status LED on the port indicates the respective port. The
LED remains lit until a correct package is read again.
Example:
Data rate: 2,5Mbps
Cable: 1200m max: length
Timeout: 74,7s (Standard Timeout)
Safety: S = 1,2

SH ARC-M3-HUB Description Version 04.00
With increasing the timeout time by only one level already 111 Hubs can
be cascaded. That is sufficient for almost any possible configuration.
Any port may be used when cascading.
