I would be careful, if you don't know that the system can tolerate loss of the HMI device.
An Ethernet module is an expensive way to connect to a tiny PanelView, and virtually all systems include an Ethernet switch for online monitoring. The fact that the ENBT is connected to the PanelView directly suggests to me that it was done intentionally.
So if this system is specifically built to NOT be messed with.... don't mess with it until you know how it will react.
Yes Sir, that's why I am asking my questions now. They want me to upload the project in the CPU. This is why I was debating between DF1 or Ethernet.
