AS-Interface master

Описание

PCI double master for 2 AS-Interface networksfa. The BW2087 is an AS-Interface double master specially designed for operation on the PCI bus, a bus system integrated in every modern PC. The plug and play properties of hardware and drivers allow the simultaneous operation of up to 4 masters and render manual configuration superfluous. An efficient event control enables the card to exchange data more quickly and increases the performance of the system considerably as a result. An interrupt is not essential, but supports the event control on a system level, which further improves the performance of the system. A switchable watchdog allows the monitoring of all communication between the AS-Interface master and the PC. If the PC operating system crashes, the AS-Interface master goes “offline” and all outputs are set as inactive. Extended diagnosis functions enable the localization of sporadically occurring configuration errors and the qualitative evaluation of AS-Interface communication. Drivers are available for Windows 2000/XP. PLC functionality. The gateway is also available with optional PLC functionality.
