Fieldbus Interface 103
Introduction
The Fieldbus Interface card permits an EVO 150 control system to communicate with a remote
PLC or computer through a Fieldbus network.
Interface cards are available for: EtherNet/IP, PROFINET IO, and Modbus/TCP.
The Fieldbus interface provides full control of operating mode, guide point position, servo gain,
and actuator speed limit; and permits monitoring of actuator position, end-of-travel status, and
web position.
The Fieldbus interface may be used in conjunction with the front-panel switch pad.
