FEATURES
-
The module has the following ControlNet operating modes:
o
ControlNet Target
, where the ControlNet Router can be owned by a controller
over scheduled ControlNet.
o
ControlNet Originator
, where the ControlNet Router owns ControlNet IO over
a scheduled ControlNet connection.
-
The module has the following Ethernet operating modes:
o
PCCC Client,
allowing the ControlNet Router to emulate a PLC5 or SLC to
exchange data with Ethernet-only PanelViews.
o
EtherNet/IP Target,
where the ControlNet Router can be owned by a
controller via a Class 1 EtherNet/IP connection.
o
EtherNet/IP Originator,
where the ControlNet Router owns EtherNet/IP IO
using a Class 1 EtherNet/IP connection.
o
Modbus TCP Master,
where the ControlNet Router module can exchange data
with Modbus TCP Slaves.
o
Modbus TCP Slave,
where the ControlNet Router module can exchange data
with a Modbus TCP Master.
