ControlNet Adapter/Slave - Modbus Plus Slave

The Anybus X-gateway copies I/O-data in both directions thus enabling data exchange between the two networks. Default I/O configuration is 20 bytes Input and 20 bytes Output. Changing default settings is very simple and is carried out using the RS232 configuration port and a standard terminal interface on a PC, such as Hyper Terminal for Windows.

The ControlNet interface is implemented according to the ControlNet international specification for a Communication adapter (profile number 12). A connection to the Anybus-S ControlNet module can be opened from a ControlNet scanner. The size of the connection can be up to 450 bytes in each direction. The ControlNet module can be read or written to by UCMM (Unscheduled) messages from another ControlNet adapter (slave) or scanner (master). The module is equipped with two BNC contacts for connection to ControlNet. If redundant operation is desired, both connectors are used; otherwise either connector A or B is used. The module is also equipped with a NAP (Network access port) for temporary connection of configuration tools. The minimum Network update time, (NUT), of the module is 5ms. The ControlNet interface module is certified by the ODVA and has proven conformance and interoperability with leading PLC´s, HMI´s etc

The Modbus Plus interface is based on licensed chip-set and software from Modicon Inc. Supporting both the Global Database and Register mapping to 3x and 4x registers this module implements a versatile Modbus Plus interface. The Modbus Plus interface module is certified by the Modconnect and has proven conformance and interoperability with leading PLC´s, HMI´s etc
