Product Description
2.1
Use and Application
The WCS-PNG410 interface module acts as an interface between the WCS read head and the
PROFINET IO controller. The device has two PROFINET ports. The second port can be used
as an outgoing PROFINET port. Data is transferred between the WCS read head and the inter-
face module via an RS-485 interface. The data from the interface module to the controller is
transferred via the PROFINET protocol.
You can connect a maximum of four LS221 (and/or LS121) WCS read heads to one WCS-
PNG410 interface module. If you connect several WCS read heads, they must have different
addresses. The number of connected WCS read heads is configured in the hardware project
planning.
The interface module supports the operation of read heads with the Extended option (WCS3B-
LS*E*), with distances of up to 629 meters.
