Extended interfaces (option)
As standard, analog and digital signals are used for device communication with cus‐
tomer peripherals. Alternatively, output can be performed using the Modbus-TCP proto‐
col.
Optionally, SICK offers various converter modules that are installed by the customer
and communicate with the device via Modbus® TCP.

PROFIBUS / PROFINET
Modbus
Modbus
®
is a communication standard for digital controls to create a connection
between a »Master« device and several »Slave« devices. The Modbus protocol defines
the communication commands only but not their electronic transfer; therefore it can be
used with different digital interfaces (Ethernet).
The measuring device is equipped with a digital interface for data transmission in
accordance with Guideline VDI 4201, Sheet 1 (General requirements) and Sheet 3
(Specific requirements for Modbus). Refer to the documentation delivered (Modbus
signal list) for assignment of the Modbus registers. Only SICK Service may perform
parameter settings.
