NXIO 100-RE Board
The NXIO 100-RE Board described in this user manual is a small module
for real-time Ethernet communication system.
The netX handles the data exchange between the connected Ethernet
networks and the on-board LEDs and switches.
The NXIO 100-RE Board is equipped with serial Flash Loader to start the
firmware automatically from a MMC card. Further the board provides two
100 MBit/s Ethernet ports for real-time Ethernet communication.
All elements of the board are powered by an onboard switching DC power
supply, which can be powered by a wide range of simple (unregulated)
standard power supplies from 12V to 30V output voltage.
Note:
The NXIO 100-RE is in no way optimized in terms of
EMC compatibility. This product is intended to be used for evaluation and
development purposes in lab environments only and is not suitable for
production use!
Depending on the loaded firmware the NXIO 100-RE uses the
communication protocols of one of the following real time Ethernet systems:
•
PROFINET
IO-Device
•
EtherCAT
Slave
•
EtherNet/IP
Adapter
(Slave)
•
SERCOS III Slave
•
