The Interbus slave terminal facilitates data exchange between EtherCAT and Interbus. For both bus systems the terminal “mirrors” up to 32 word input and 32 word output to the respective other system.
The EL6851 EtherCAT Terminal is a DMX master terminal and enables connection of up to 32 devices without repeater. The DMX master terminal can send up to 512 bytes of data (this can be set via the terminal). At 250 kbit/s a maximum data rate of 44 kHz is therefore possible. The RS485 interface in the EL6851 is electrically isolated and guarantees high interference immunity.
The BK1150 EtherCAT Coupler is the link between the EtherCAT protocol at fieldbus level and the Bus Terminals. The coupler converts the passing telegrams from Ethernet 100BASE-TX to the internal, fieldbus-independent terminal bus.
The Compact Bus Coupler BK7150 connects the CC-Link system to the electronic terminal blocks, which can be extended in modular fashion. One unit consists of the Bus Coupler, any number of up to 64 terminals and one end terminal. The K-bus extension technology allows the connection of up to 255 spatially distributed Bus Terminals to one Bus Coupler.
The BK9053 Bus Coupler connects PROFINET with the modular, extendable electronic terminal blocks. One unit consists of one Bus Coupler, any number from 1 to 64 terminals (255 with K-bus extension) and one end terminal.
The KL1382 digital input terminal analyzes the input signal from thermistor sensors with the aid of a current loop and a voltage of < 5 V. The bus terminal has two channels.
The KL3182 analog input terminal processes signals in the range of -2 to +2 V. The voltage is digitized to a resolution of 16 bits and is transmitted, electrically isolated, to the higher-level automation device.
The module is equipped with 1 HIPERFACE encoder interface. This module can be used to evaluate encoders installed in motors from other manufacturers as well as encoders for external axes (encoders that sample any machine movement).
