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 Anybus Profibus-DP Master interface supports connection of up to 125 slaves at baudrates up to 12 Mbit/s. The Profibus configuration is defined with NetTool-PB, the windows based configuration software for Profibus from HMS (included free of charge).
The Profibus interface module is certified by the Profibus user organization and has proven conformance and interoperability with leading manufacturers of I/O, drives, instruments etc
Configuration is downloaded to the module via the RS232 configuration port.

The Interbus 2Mbit/s interface module is a slave node that can be read from/written to by an Interbus master. Interbus has two ways of exchanging data; one through fast cyclical I/O data called ?Process Data?, and one through a somewhat slower protocol called PCP, which is mainly used for configuration purposes. It supports Interbus PCP V2.0. The module supports up to 10 words of data on the bus, out of which up to four words can be used for PCP.
