The intelligent Industrial gateway for the connection of industrial networks - UNIGATE FB
Connecting incompatible networks
In the field of automatic control many different Fieldbuses and Industrial Ethernet became established worldwide. Again and again the task of interconnecting these incompatible networks comes up. The UNIGATE® FB-series was created exactly for that task. The series contains Fieldbus-Slave as well as Industrial Ethernet versions.The UNIGATE® FB is designed as DIN-rail module and contains the selected Fieldbuses or Ethernet in the mechanical variant carried out in the respective standard. Internally the product is realized by using two UNIGATE® IC-modules that are mounted on a carrier motherboard. By this modular structure all Fieldbus- and Ethernet-versions can be supplied, provided that the respective
IC-modules are available. The number of available versions is growing steadily by the continuous development of new IC-modules e. g. in the Industrial Ethernet field.
In case of the series UNIGATE® FB, the data exchange between the Fieldbuses or Ethernet is realized through a Script. With the free PC-tool "Protocol Developer" this Script is generated and optimally adjusted to the final product and the requirements.
