Description

Product overview
The CIFX M224290BM-DN\F is an M.2 2242 Key B+M PC communication card providing a DeviceNet interface for PC-based automation. It executes the protocol stack on-board and exchanges process data with the host via dual-port memory or DMA, enabling deterministic communication for industrial applications.

Highlights
  • Smallest multiprotocol PC cards available for automation
  • Uniform driver and toolset across protocols and card formats
  • Wide driver support for easy integration
  • Process data access via dual-port memory
  • Includes detached network interface (15 cm) option
  • Extended operating range up to 70 °C with airflow


Description
The CIFX PC card family supports Real-Time Ethernet and Fieldbus systems for PC-based automation. The protocol stack runs autonomously on the card (netX 90), reducing host load. All cards share a common driver and toolchain regardless of protocol or card format. Hilscher netX technology allows multiple Real-Time Ethernet and Fieldbus protocols on a single hardware platform by loading different firmware. Hardware options include various cable lengths, M12 connectors, additional NVRAM, extended temperature versions, 2-channel variants and detached network interfaces. A comprehensive set of device drivers and a free C-Toolkit are available.

Supported protocols
  • DeviceNet Slave
