Use and Application
Module Description
The ICE1-*-G60L-*- modules function as an interface in an industrial fieldbus system. They
enable communication between a central controller at the control level and the decentralized
sensors and actuators at the field level. To do so, in addition to the fieldbus interface, different
variants of the modules have a different number of ports for digital inputs and outputs.
The following module types are described in this manual:
•
Ethernet IO module with fixed number of inputs/outputs
8DI8DO modules
•
ICE1-8DI8DO-G60L-V1D: Ethernet IO module with 8 digital inputs (8DI) and 8 digital
outputs (8DO)
•
ICE1-8DI8DO-G60L-C1-V1D: Ethernet IO module with 8 digital inputs (8DI), 8 digital
outputs (8DO) and decentralized control function
16DI modules
•
ICE1-16DI-G60L-V1D: Ethernet IO module with 16 digital inputs (16DI)
•
Ethernet IO module with configurable inputs/outputs
16DIO modules
•
ICE1-16DIO-G60L-V1D: Ethernet IO module with 16 digital inputs/outputs (16DIO),
freely configurable
•
ICE1-16DIO-G60L-C1-V1D: Ethernet IO module with 16 digital inputs/outputs
(16DIO), freely-configurable and decentralized control function
The modules have an integrated 2-port switch, have multiprotocol capability and can be config-
ured for EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, or EtherCAT. The resulting potential line or ring topologies that
can be achieved enable reliable data communication and a significant reduction in the amount
of wiring required, which therefore makes the costs for installation and maintenance reason-
able. Simple and rapid extension is also possible.
The ICE1-*-G60L-* series modules have a robust metal housing made of die-cast zinc. Due to
the fully encapsulated device housing, the module electronics are protected against environ-
mental influences and can be used in a wide range of temperatures. Despite the robust design,
the modules have compact dimensions and a low weight. They are especially suitable for use
in machines and plants with a moderate I/O concentration on distributed assemblies.
Multiprotocol (EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, or EtherCAT)
The Ethernet IO modules are multiprotocol modules and allow you to select one of many differ-
ent protocols for communication within a fieldbus system. As a result, multiprotocol modules
can be integrated into different networks without the need to purchase protocol-specific mod-
ules. Thanks to this technology, you can also use one and the same module in different envi-
ronments.
Using rotary coding switches in the lower area of the modules, you can comfortably and easily
set both the protocol and the address of the module, provided the protocol to be used supports
this. If you have chosen a protocol and started the cyclic communication once, the module
remembers this setting and uses the selected protocol from this point on. To use another sup-
ported protocol with this module, perform a factory reset.
