PROFINET Gateway to Serial Communications

Standard serial devices can now communicate with PLCs over PROFINET Industrial Ethernet ProtocolComtrol’s PROFINET Gateway!

This enables fast, accurate collection of key information needed to keep the factory floor operating smoothly and efficiently. Now malfunctioning devices can be diagnosed immediately, and critical data such as inventory levels, package weights, raw material levels, and billed projects can be accessed at the touch of a key. That leads to better, more timely decisions based on complete and accurately tracked data.

The DeviceMaster UP family of products delivers serial to Ethernet connections for up to four serial devices and provide PLC connectivity to standard serial devices with flashable protocol support for EtherNet/IP, PROFINET CbA and IO, Modbus/TCP, and TCP/IP.

In contrast to many industrial protocol-bridging products, the DeviceMaster UP acts as a superior PROFINET gateway, configuring in just minutes via a web browser interface. The included PortVision remote management and configuration software makes it a simple task to detect and manage every DeviceMaster on the network, facilitating firmware updates, troubleshooting, and remote administration.

What is Profinet?

Supported PLC models:

Siemens ET 400 and 300 S7 Models

Highlights

  • Provide PLC connectivity to standard serial devices—via PROFINET CbA and PROFINET IO
  • PROFINET IO—String, RFID, and barcode data filtering eliminates redundant data while extracting the RFID and barcode parameters
  • Web-based serial port configuration—makes setup and management changes quick and easy
  • No serial cable distance limitations—enables communication between a host PLC and serial devices located anywhere across an Industrial Ethernet network
  • Software selectable—RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 serial interfaces simplify setup
  • Temperature rated for extreme conditions—operating temperature of -37° to 74°C enables DeviceMaster to function in a wide variety of harsh environments
  • Variable power input - eliminates the need for power converters
  • Rugged metal housing—with panel, rack, and DIN rail mounting options
  • PortVision™ Plus remote monitoring and management software—automatically locates DeviceMasters on the network, enables user to view status, update firmware, and resolve issues remotely
  • RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC compliant
