Descripción
The Anybus X-gateway allows you to seamlessly inter-connect PLC control systems and their connected devices between AS-Interface and EtherCAT networks.
FAST COPYING OF I/O DATA
The X-gateways primary function is with the fast transfer of cyclic I/O data between the two networks. This offloads your PLC from working with additional calculations. The gateway acts as a Master on AS-Interface network and an Slave on the EtherCAT network. The data transmission is completely transparent with a maximum data capacity of 512 bytes in each direction.
EASY CONFIGURATION - NO PROGRAMMING REQUIRED!
The connection between the two networks is quickly set up in the Anybus Configuration Manager software, included with the X-gateway. No programming skills are needed to set up the X-gateway. As factory default the X-gateways have a pre-defined I/O size of 20 bytes I/O.
AS-Interface Master Interface
An Anybus X-gateway with an integrated AS-Interface M4 Master interface can be used when there is no existing AS-Interface controlling PLC.
- Complies to AS-Interface 3.0 specification
- Controls up to 62 AS-Interface slaves
- Optional Live List of the active status of the connected slaves
- Supports Combined Transaction Types 1, 2, 3, 4 and 51
- Up to 248 digital inputs and 186 digital outputs
- Up to 124 (16-bit) analog values
- AS-Interface baudrate 167 kbit/s
- Synchronous I/O (optional)
- On-board configuration button
- 1x D-sub 9-pin male connector (RS-232) for terminal-based monitoring and configuration
- 2x 2-pin 5,08 Phoenix plug connectors
EtherCAT Slave interface
EtherCAT Slave settings can be made by importing the provided .XML file into engineering tool of the controlling PLC.
- Complete EtherCAT slave according to DS 301 V4.022
- Supports CANopen over EtherCAT
- Max 512 bytes of Input and 512 bytes of Output data (PDO + SDO)
- Baudrate 100 Mbit/s full duplex
- 4 FMMU channels (can be used freely by the EtherCAT master for any purpose.)
- 4 SM channels
- Bit-oriented FMMU operation
- Position addressing, node addressing and logical addressing
- PDI Watchdog
- Output I/O Sync Manager Watchdog
- Integrated switch allowing for a daisy-chain topology
- 2x RJ45 EtherCAT connectors
