Users may change setpoint or gas selection, and issue other commands to Alicat instruments using a
DeviceNet or EtherNet/IP enabled PLC or computer.
Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, Ethernet IP,
DeviceNet and Profibus are offered in a compact, multi-functional, easy to install, and easy to program control solution.
Bus address and bus speed, as well as a reset button, are conveniently accessed through the unit's back cover, making it quick and easy to configure your NR25
DeviceNet resolver for any PLC based control system.
The control head 8685 is also available with an AS-interface as well as with
DeviceNet communication.
The
DeviceNet protocol option is available for the UT55A and UT35A digital indicating controllers and the UP55A and UP35A program controllers.
Profibus,
DeviceNet, LON Works and CC converters are also available.
Expansion modules can be installed in the controller to provide additional interfaces such as a Profibus Master,
DeviceNet Master and Slave, Cam Group, Encoder Interface and a Cross-Contamination module.
Rexroth's open system supports popular industrial communication protocols including Profibus,
DeviceNet, CANopen, SERCOS and Ethernet.
For communications, the PLC offers direct connections to programming devices or operator interfaces, as well as options for DH-485 networking,
DeviceNet, and EtherNet/IP.
Designed to operate a family of low power pilot valves, the
DeviceNet Solenoid Valve is a discrete device that is hooked to a
DeviceNet connection for direct control of solenoid valves.
The linking device provides a simpler alternative to using PC-based gateways and racks of communication cards for connecting EtherNet/IP and
DeviceNet, cutting system costs and increasing data-transfer rates, Rockwell Automation says.
After considerable research, Lipton found the necessary balance with an Allen-Bradley ControlLogix programmable controller and open
DeviceNet networks.
