Anybus X-gateway – CANopen Slave - PROFINET-IO Device AB7658

The Anybus X-gateway allows you to seamlessly inter-connect PLC control systems and their connected devices between CANopen and PROFINET-IO 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 an Slave on the CANopen network and as an Device on the PROFINET-IO network. The data transmission between the two networks 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.
