System description
The EMS modular control is used on the mobile side of industrial automation systems
such as EMS, sorters, skids.
The control functions as a compact center for peripherals on the mobile side. Control
and query of sensors and actuators, control of various axes (motors) and information
transfer to the stationary side for system control (PLC).
The control can be configured according to the operator's requirements. As a result, sev-
eral axes (motors) can be controlled in different performance classes and moved to the
target position using appropriate sensors.
In the corresponding versions, the control also has safety functions (see section „10
Safety functions (only for controls with integrated safety technology)“).
The control with possible peripherals is shown on the following page.
Adapted to the different application requirements, EMS modular controls are divided into
three preferred variants:
•
Preferred variant 1: Communication rail bus CAN + SMGM, without safety function
(for description see section „"Preferred variant 1: Rail bus CAN + SMGM, without
safety function" (
30)“)
•
Preferred variant 2: Communication rail bus CAN, STO via additional power rail (for
description see section „"Preferred variant 2: Rail bus CAN, STO via power rail" (
•
Preferred variant 3: Communication SMGM, STO via PROFIsafe (description in sec-
tion „"Preferred variant 3: SMGM, STO via PROFIsafe" (
