Product overviewThe CIFX PC card implements fieldbus and Real-Time Ethernet communication offload for PC-based automation. The CIFX M3042100BM-CO\F is an M.2 3042 Key B+M form-factor card that executes the CANopen protocol stack on-board (netX technology), reducing host CPU load. Process data is exchanged via Dual-Port-Memory or DMA.
Highlights- Universal CANopen support (Master or Slave)
- Common Hilscher driver and toolset across protocols and card formats
- Easy integration with a wide range of device drivers and a free C-Toolkit
- Data access via Dual-Port-Memory or Direct Memory Access (DMA)
- Includes detached network interface (available with 15 cm or 30 cm cable)
Supported Protocols- CANopen Master
- CANopen Slave
