PROFIBUS communication module AB9079-C

ProfiNetEtherNet/IP2 port

The Anybus EtherCAT to .NET Bridge converts EtherCAT to C#, enabling you to connect any EtherCAT PLC control system with any .NET solution on a PC. The .NET Bridge uses simulators and code generators to simplify integration. Features and benefits Connect OT and IT The .NET Gateways enable PLC control systems to connect with .NET solutions, integrating OT and IT. Code generator The Anybus .NET Bridge Code Generator creates C# files for the .NET programmer and PLC files for the PLC programmer according to a defined spreadsheet. Simulators The configuration software includes two simulators — a PLC simulator for the .NET programmer and a .NET simulator for the PLC programmer. 3-year warranty The .NET Bridges are designed to be robust and long-lasting. A 3-year guarantee is provided. Easy-to-use interface for the PLC programmer A function block, provided by Anybus, manages the handshake on the PLC side and provides an easy-to-use interface for the PLC programmer. Large data communication Supports 65535 different message types, each with a unique ID. The max message size is 251 bytes. Messages are sent sequentially over the same IO data facilitating large data communication. Automatic configuration setup If a bridge needs to be replaced, the .NET application will automatically set up the configuration. Life cycle management HMS maintains every part of the .NET Gateways, including network updates, throughout the product’s lifecycle.
