Industrial gateway Anybus AB7313-B

communicationDeviceNetCAN

Short overview
The Anybus Communicator AB7313-B is a CAN-to-DeviceNet gateway that enables connection of CAN-based devices and equipment to DeviceNet control systems. It converts CAN protocols (including CANopen and custom CAN 1.0/2.0A/2.0B) to DeviceNet, ensuring reliable, secure and high-speed data exchange with minimal integration effort.

Features and benefits

• No hardware or software changes required — integrate CAN devices to DeviceNet by connecting and configuring the Communicator.
• Visual CAN frame building — configure CAN frames using Anybus Configuration Manager.
• Broad protocol support — converts CANopen and custom CAN protocols quickly.
• Slim DIN-rail design — IP20 housing for installation close to field devices to reduce wiring.
• 3-year warranty — product supported across lifecycle by HMS.
• Compatible with PLCs from leading manufacturers.
• Converts proprietary transaction models — supports Produce/Consume and Request/Response.
• Save & Load configurations — reuse settings for other installations.
• Daisy-chaining capable — Dual Port switched Ethernet versions eliminate external switches.
• Easy integration — no code or function blocks required on PLC side.

Product description
The Anybus Communicator AB7313-B converts CAN bus protocols to DeviceNet adapter/slave mode, supporting DeviceNet data sizes up to 512 bytes and CAN baud rates from 20 kbit/s to 1 Mbit/s. It supports up to 128 CAN transactions (256 CAN frames) and multiple update modes (cyclic, on data change, single shot, trigger byte). Configuration is facilitated via Anybus Configuration Manager and EDS files are available for DeviceNet integration.
