DIN rail mounted Ethernet bridge Anybus AB9078-C

industrial

Overview
The Anybus .NET Bridge connects a PLC function block to a .NET application on a PC by converting EtherNet/IP to C#. It enables communication between any EtherNet/IP PLC control system and any .NET solution, and includes simulators and a code generator to simplify integration.

Features and benefits

• OT–IT integration: enables PLC control systems to interface with .NET applications for combined operational and IT workflows.
• Code generator: produces C# files for the .NET developer and PLC files for the PLC programmer from a defined spreadsheet.
• Streamer mode for low-latency: supports direct data-stream exchange without handshake for minimum delay and maximum throughput.
• Simulators included: PLC simulator for the .NET developer and .NET simulator for the PLC developer to speed up development and testing.
• Automatic configuration: when a bridge is replaced, the .NET application can automatically apply the saved configuration.
• Large-data communication: supports up to 65,535 message types (unique IDs) with a maximum message size of 251 bytes; messages are sent sequentially using the same I/O data.
• Lifecycle management: HMS provides firmware and network updates during the product lifecycle.
