2D/3D Gateway
2D/3D Gateway allows for scanCONTROL SMART sensors to be integrated into various
fieldbus systems:
- PROFINET
- EtherNet/IP
- EtherCAT
All measurement results obtained from the profile evaluation performed by a
scanCONTROL SMART sensor can be transmitted to a PLC via one of these fieldbus
systems. Furthermore, all scanCONTROL sensor settings can be set via the 2D/3D
Gateway (e. g. Laser on/off or User Mode).

2D/3D Gateway
The 2D/3D Gateway can connect up to four scanCONTROL SMART sensors to the
fieldbus. Measurement values are transmitted at up to 500 Hz.
Please refer to the TechNote T026 (scanCONTROL fieldbus integration) for more de-
tails.
