Communication gateway Anybus AB7003-B

industrialModbus RTUCANopen

Overview
A protocol converter that connects serial devices to CANopen control systems. The Anybus Communicator AB7003-B converts serial protocols to CANopen, enabling connection of RS-232/RS-485 devices to CANopen networks with secure and high-speed data transfer and simple setup.

Features and benefits

• No hardware or software changes needed; pre-defined Modbus RTU support and a 6-step Modbus RTU wizard simplify configuration.
• Quick connection to Modbus RTU with pre-defined configuration options.
• Compatible with standard serial protocols such as Modbus RTU and DF1, and with proprietary request/response or produce/consume protocols.
• Slim IP20 housing for DIN-rail mounting to install close to connected equipment and reduce wiring.
• 3-year warranty.
• Presents serial data as PLC-friendly I/O via intelligent protocol conversion to reduce PLC processing load.
• Save & Load function to reuse configurations across installations.
• Daisy-chaining available on models with Dual Port switched Ethernet to remove need for external switches.
• Life cycle management and network updates maintained throughout the product lifecycle.
