Anybus Interface Master - Model AS -CC-Link Slave X-Gateway

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 the AS-Interface network and as a Slave on the CC-Link 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.

• Fast copying of cyclic I/O data between two networks (10-15 ms)
• Proven and tested with all PLC manufacturers
• Supports up to a maximum of 512 bytes of Input and Output data in each direction
• Powerful Master interface for AS-Interface eliminates the need for a PLC controller
• Optional control and status information added to the I/O data for diagnostic purposes
• Robust stand-alone housing for use in harsh industrial environments
• Global free technical support and consultancy
