# Networking
|
||||
Some devices on the station need to communicate with each other, and they do this by utilizing device networking.
|
||||
With networking machines and devices can send arbitrary data between each other.
|
||||
There are multiple networks that get used, such as the wireless and wired network.
|
||||
Each network device has a frequency it receives on. PDAs for example, use the frequency: [color=green]220.2[/color]
|
||||
|
||||
## Device Lists
|
||||
Some devices need to know what other devices to communicate with specifically.
|
||||
<Box>
|
||||
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="AirAlarm"/>
|
||||
</Box>
|
||||
Air alarms for example require you to tell it which vents, scrubbers, sensors, and firelocks to interact with.
|
||||
You do that by using the Network Configurator.
|
||||
|
||||
## Linking
|
||||
If devices basic or still more advanced but need finer control of how and what connects to each other they will generally use device linking.
|
||||
<Box>
|
||||
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="SignalSwitch"/>
|
||||
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="Airlock"/>
|
||||
</Box>
|
||||
With linking you can connect the outputs of a device like [color=gray]On[/color] or [color=gray]Off[/color] with the inputs of a device like the airlocks
|
||||
[color=gray]Open[/color] or [color=gray]Close[/color] inputs.
|
||||
The Network Configurator is also used for linking devices together.
