The EL6001 serial interface enables the connection of devices with RS232 interface The device connected to the EL6001 EtherCAT Terminal communicates with the automation device via the coupler. The active communication channel operates independently of the higher-level bus system in full duplex mode at up to 115.2 kbaud. The RS232 interface guarantees high immunity to interference through electrically isolated signals.
The EL6002 serial interface enables the connection of devices with two RS232 interfaces. The devices connected to the EL6002 EtherCAT Terminal communicate with the automation device via the Coupler.
The BC9020 Bus Terminal Controller is a Bus Coupler with integrated PLC functionality and has a bus interface for Ethernet. It is an intelligent slave and can be used as decentralized intelligence in the Ethernet system. In conjunction with the K-bus extension, the “Economy plus” controller enables connection of up to 255 Bus Terminals to a controller.
The Economy plus version extends the existing PROFIBUS Bus Coupler series BK3xx0. The K-bus extension technology allows the connection of up to 255 spatially distributed Bus Terminals to one Bus Coupler.
