Applications

HMI

The AN-X3-PB gateway running the HMI firmware acts like a gateway between a PROFIBUS DP network and an Ethernet network supporting EtherNet/IP scheduled connections, PLC5 file emulation, and Modbus TCP.

• Scheduled Connection size 250/248 (input/output)
• PROFIBUS DP I/O can be mapped to the scheduled connections
• PLC5 File emulation allows users to map PROFIBUS DP I/O data to N or F type files
• Map PROFIBUS DP I/O data to Modbus registers using Modbus TCP Server functionality

UDP

The AN-X3-PB acts as a gateway between a PROFIBUS DP network and an Ethernet network using cyclic UDP messages.         

• Supports up to 16 UDP send blocks and up to 16 UDP receive blocks
• Each block supports a standard frame size (MTU) of up to 1500 bytes
• With Ethernet, IP, UDP and QTS overhead, there are 1448 bytes or 362 DWORDS (32 bits) available to map PROFIBUS diagnostics and data
• Both Unicast and Multicast frames are supported

Specifications
