DMC20/DME20 DRIVE-CLiQ hub
Properties
The DMC20 and DME20 DRIVE-CLiQ hub modules are used to implement point-to-point
distribution of a DRIVE-CLiQ line.
●
DMC20 is the hub for the control cabinet configuration
●
DME20 is the hub for use without a control cabinet (IP67 degree of protection).
The modules are particularly well suited to applications that require DRIVE-CLiQ link nodes
to be removed in groups without interrupting the DRIVE-CLiQ link and therefore the data
exchange.
The DMC20/DME20 is also used with a SIMOTION D410-2 DP when a second encoder is
required. As an SMx sensor module and a motor with DRIVE-CLiQ interface only have one
DRIVE-CLiQ interface, a DMC20/DME20 must be used for a second encoder via DRIVE-
CLiQ. If a CUA31/CUA32 is used, the DMC20/DME20 is not required. Alternatively, a
second encoder can also be connected via the X23 interface on the SIMOTION D410-2 DP.
CAUTION
The 50 mm clearances above and below the components must be observed.
