Communication gateway 700-671-PNC01

mediaUSBCAN Bus

The PN/CAN gateway Layer 2 allows the connection of CAN devices with proprietary CAN protocols. On the PROFINET network, the PN/CAN gateway is a PROFINET I/O device and supports transmission rates of up to 100 Mbit full duplex; on the CAN bus, up to 1 Mbit/s is supported. The I/O data of the CAN nodes are mapped transparently and freely configurable into the PROFINET network and can thus be processed directly in the PLC. The PN/CAN gateway is integrated into the hardware configurator with a GSDML file and can be fully configured there. Further software tools for parameterization, or handling blocks for programming, are not necessary, which makes the use of the gateway uncomplicated. The features MRP (media redundancy) as well as extensive diagnostic functions and an interface for online diagnosis complete the performance characteristics of the PN/CAN gateway. Automatic and controlled receive and transmit objects for CAN frames with configurable identifier Transmission objects can also be transmitted cyclically Receive channel FIFO for receiving CAN frames with flexible identifier Transmission channel FIFO for transmitting any CAN frames with flexible identifier Up to 512 different CAN frames configurable Supports CAN 2.0A (11 bit identifier) and CAN 2.0B (29 bit identifier) Up to 1 Mbit/s CAN bit rate Simple configuration via GSDML file No PLC handling blocks or parameterization software necessary Media redundancy (MRP client)
