Start with the information you need, the system it comes from and the application it must serve.
Plan the path between sites
Design the connection between local acquisition and the central communication component.

Use this relationship to frame the technical discussion. Exact module placement and capabilities depend on the selected product and version.
Project perspective
One application. More than one location.
A distributed project brings together local equipment, network responsibilities and supervisory requirements. Establish those boundaries before choosing the rollout pattern.

Use these questions to shape a focused technical evaluation.
Deployment model
UniCOM runs on an edge PC of any brand that meets the required specifications. A typical configuration uses one LAN connection for the local network and one WAN connection toward the central system. Confirm hardware, operating-system and network requirements for the selected release.
Protocol and feature scope
Some capabilities in the legacy material are marked R2. Confirm what is available now; do not treat roadmap features as delivered behavior.
Security and operation
Review network separation, access control, connectivity loss, updates and data handling with the technical owner. Security properties depend on the deployed configuration.
