Shifting from tap mode to in-line mode

Prev Next

You can easily shift from tap to in-line mode. If you are running a Sensor with built-in taps in internal tap mode, you can toggle between tap and in-line mode with a simple software configuration change from the Manager interface. Thus, you can run in tap mode until you feel comfortable with the Sensor's reliability, and then shift into in-line mode without needing to touch the Sensor. You can also mix modes using different ports of a Sensor. You can run one pair in in-line mode and others in tap mode. With the GE port-Sensors, you will have to do some minimal reconnecting to convert from tap to in-line mode.
