4.3 Functional description
4.3.1 Introduction
The module is used as a bus connector between the realtime Ethernet network "Ethernet/IP" (see [1])
and the Lütze field bus, referred to here as "L-Bus". The physical I/O functionality is provided by the
DIOLINE20 modules connected to the L-Bus.
The digital and analogue process data read via the Ethernet/IP or L-Bus are thereby transferred
completely and consistently on the L-Bus or Ethernet/IP.
The L-Bus is transparent to the Ethernet/IP network, i.e. the module acts, with regard to the I/O
technical data sets, as a highly flexible I/O module that can be individually configured within a wide
range.
