Opis

PROFINET Gateway with integrated switchfa. The VBG-PN-K20-D is a PROFINET Gateway in accordance with AS-Interface Specification 3.0, to IP20, and is used for the connection of AS-Interface systems to the higher level PROFINET controller. Its construction is particularly suitable for use in the control cabinet. The master is supplied from the AS-Interface cable. On the AS-Interface gateway with graphics display, the commissioning of the AS-Interface circuit and also the test of the connected peripherals can be completely separated from the commissioning of the PROFINET and the programming. All the options available on the AS-Interface can be addressed via Ethernet. Local operation using the graphics displays and the 4 buttons enable all the functions to be represented on the display, which are covered by the other AS-Interface masters via the AS-i Control Tools software. An additional RS 232 socket provides the option of reading out data via gateway, network and function, direct from the gateway in the context of an extended local diagnosis. 7 LEDs, which are mounted on the front, indicate the current status of the AS-Interface network. Every PROFINET gateway is supplied with a unique MAC-ID and supports the assignment of an IP address statically (via keypad) and dynamically (DHCP, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).
