Anybus ABC3061 communicator gateway RS232/485 - EtherCAT slave

Anybus Communicator general:

Connect your serial device to all major fieldbus or industrial Ethernet networks with the Anybus Communicator. The Communicator performs an intelligent conversion between the serial protocol and the chosen industrial network.

For industrial devices with a serial RS-232/485 interface, HMS makes it possible to convert almost any Produce / Consume, Request / Response or simple ASCII protocol with its flexible frame method in the included "Anybus Configuration Manager" software.

The Communicator handles the serial protocol without the need for extensive PLC function blocks. This compact gateway takes up little space in a control cabinet and is easy to mount on a standard DIN rail. With its adjustable RS-232/485, it is possible to connect multiple devices using a Communicator.

With the new generation ABC communicator it is no longer necessary to purchase different gateways to convert from RS-232/485 (master) to Ethernet-IP, Modbus-TCP or Profinet. The gateway can be loaded with the correct firmware to perform the necessary conversion to these three protocols.
