Product Description

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 easy using the windows based configuration software Anybus Configuration Manager X-gateway from HMS (free of charge).

The EtherNet/IP Scanner interface supports connection of up to 64 adapters (slaves) at 10/100 Mbit/s. The module also supports IT functionality such as Web server, SSI-scripts, E-mail client and FTP-server. Ethernet settings are configurable through the built-in Web server or the software Anybus IP configuration utility from HMS. The Anybus X-gateway also has on board IP configuration switches. The EtherNet/IP interface module is certified by ODVA and has proven conformance and interoperability with leading PLC’s HMI’s etc. The configuration of the EtherNet/IP network is done with a built in web interface or with RS Networx from Rockwell.

The CANopen interface is an adapter class product allowing fast data exchange. The CANopen slaves data map consists of Process Data Objects (fast data) and Service Data Objects (slow data). The data on the CANopen bus is updated when a change is made or on request from another node. The CANopen interface module is certified by the Can In Automation organisation and has proven conformance and interoperability with leading PLC´s, SoftPLC´s, HMI´s etc
