Excellent solution to integrate Slave devices with CAN 2.0A or 2.0B port on other FieldBus and Industrial Ethernet networks.
- Field devices from many vendors support CAN communication protocol. There can be a requirement to read data and write control parameters on these devices from PLCs or SCADA or Control systems which are on other networks like Profibus, Devicenet, ControlNet, Ethernet IP etc.
- The Anybus CAN communicator is a great solution to control and monitor devices with CAN 2.0A and CAN 2.0B ports from other Fieldbus and Industrial Ethernet networks.
- It is possible to configure the Anybus CAN communicator for any type of CAN frame using the flexible CAN frame building manager
- No additional software required, the Anybus CAN communicator comes with the required configuration manager.
How does it work?
- The Communicator has a CAN Master interface that can read and write data to and from the slave devices.
- The data is stored internally and made available to the other network on requests.
