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 PROFINET interface works as a I/O-Device on the PROFINET IO or IRT network. The interface support up to 220 bytes of IO for both Input and Output data. The interface baud rate is 100Mbit/s (full duplex). Four LEDs will continuously indicate the actual PROFINET status and eventually error messages. The interface also supports the normal PROFINET Alarm functionality. The interface uses 2 normal RJ45 connectors for the PROFINET connection.

IT-Functions:
The PROFINET IO/IRT interface also support functions like Webserver and FTP functions. The IT functions can be used simultaneously with the PROFINET communication. 

The Interbus 2Mbit/s interface interface 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.
