As many as needed, as few as possible—
this is the principle on which the XI/ON
modular I/O system was built. An extensive
range of digital and analog I/Os as well as
technology modules are available.
●
High level of modularity
●
Fieldbuses: CANopen, PROFIBUS-DP,
DeviceNet and Ethernet
●
Bus-independent, pluggable modules
●
Low wiring requirement
●
Precise diagnostics
●
Space and cost saving with XNE
modules
●
Programmable CANopen gateway
●
Standard and XNE modules can be
mixed
XI/ON XNE completes the XI/ON I/O
system with price and space optimized I/O
modules and gateways. The XNE gateways
use the EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP Ethernet,
CANopen and PROFIBUS-DP bus systems.
●
XNE gateways with integrated bus
terminating resistors
●
Full compatibility with the standard
XI/ON system
●
No base module required
●
High channel density (up to 16 DI/DO
on 12.5 mm width)
●
“Push-In” spring-loaded terminals
●
Multi-functional slices
●
Diagnostics interface
The standard gateways use the Modbus
TCP, DeviceNet, Ethernet, CANopen and
PROFIBUS-DP bus systems.
●
The use of pluggable I/O modules is
independent on the fieldbus used
●
Wiring is implemented on the base
module, fixed wiring
●
Fast module exchange under power
(hot swapping)
●
Generation of diagnostics information
to higher-level controller
●
Up to 74 slice modules can be
connected per gateway
●
Mechanical coding of modules
●
Diagnostics interface
Programmable CANopen Gateway Base Modules for Every Requirement
I/Oassistant—the Universal
Configuration and Diagnostics Tool
Page V7-T4-68 Page V7-T4-72
The programmable CANopen gateway
brings the power of the PLC directly to the
fieldbus terminal. The device is ideal for
handling decentralized automation tasks
and thus for relieving the load of a higher-
level PLC.
The serial onboard interface is used for
local programming access and as an
interface for the I/Oassistant configuration
and diagnostics tool. Alternatively, this
interface can also be used as a free user
interface. The gateway is programmed with
XSoft-CoDeSys-2.
The base modules are used to connect
the field wiring for the standard XI/ON
modules. They are available for 2-, 3- and
4-wire connections, as block or slice
modules, with either spring-loaded
terminals or screw terminals—the right
format for every application.
The I/Oassistant provides you with a
universal tool that offers interactive
support with the entire planning and
implementation of your XI/ON installation.
The I/Oassistant is integrated in
XSoft-CoDeSys-2.
A project is first of all created and
structured on the screen. For this you
choose gateways, electronic and base
modules as well as the appropriate
accessories. The individual stations are
then configured offline or online. Once
everything is set to your satisfaction, you
simply put your installation into operation.
The I/Oassistant also automatically
generates a parts list for your order.
I/Oassistant checks the station, reads the
process data, outputs values and visualizes
the diagnostics data of the channel. This
enables you to commission your station
without a higher-level PLC and ensure that
a section of the system is functioning
correctly.
