A protocol converter that connects serial devices to EtherCAT control systems
Item number ABC3061-A
The Anybus Communicator Serial Master to EtherCAT enables you to connect any RS-232/485 device or equipment to EtherCAT control systems. Anybus Communicators ensure reliable, secure, and high-speed data transfers between different industrial networks. Thanks to our intuitive web-based user interface, they're also incredibly easy to use.
Use the intuitive web-based user interface to easily configure the Communicator via the drag-and-drop functionality or to analyze live data, export log files, and generate support packages.
The secure boot protects against malware, while a security switch locks configurations to prevent unauthorized changes. Ports used in production are disabled to add another layer of security.
Powered by the award-winning NP40 network processor and high-end components, the Communicator meets the constantly growing demand for more data to be transferred faster.
The Communicator has forward-facing ports and is designed for IP20 and DIN-rail mounting, enabling you to install it with ease, close to connected devices, thereby reducing wiring requirements.
Instant data transfer lets you take advantage of high-speed industrial networks, as the Communicator provides hardware-accelerated endian conversion (byte swap), saving processing time on the PLC.
Thanks to carefully selected industrial components the Communicator operates reliably in harsh environments, ensuring uptime and longevity. Our confidence in quality is reflected in a 5-year warranty.
Convert standard serial protocols such as Modbus RTU and proprietary serial request/response or produce/consume-based protocols.
The user interface displays real-time connection status and I/O data mapping for easy troubleshooting. Easily generate a support file containing all the necessary information.
Pre-configure the Communicator and customize the hardware and user interface with your colors and logos.
HMS maintains every part of the Communicator, including network updates, throughout the product’s lifecycle.
