System Components
Product Description
The start of the SmartWire-DT
system is usually a gateway
module connected to a PLC
or controller fieldbus. This
means that SmartWire-DT
connected components will
work with most third-party
PLCs without having to
create a new program. These
devices are typically located
within the main control
cabinet for a machine.
To plan and lay out a
SmartWire-DT network, an
MS Windows-compatible
software program called
SWD-Assist is available as a
free download from the Eaton
website. The SWD-Assist
configuration software allows
a user to drag-and-drop
system components like
motor starters, drives,
pushbuttons and indicator
lights, and will calculate the
control power requirements
needed and generate a
bill of materials of all the
required components.
In-Panel Components
PLC and HMI/PLC Modules
These modules serve as
Programmable Logic
Controllers, Human Machine
Interface devices or both, and
control the machine’s
SmartWire-DT system.
Details of these devices are
found in Tab 4 of this volume.
Gateway Modules
Gateway modules connect
the SmartWire-DT system to
the PLC. They are connected
as nodes to the existing PLC
fieldbus and are the start of
the SmartWire-DT connection
system. Gateways are
available with EtherNet/IP,
Modbus TCP, EtherCAT,
PROFINET, POWERLINK,
PROFIBUS-DP and CANopen
protocols.
Motor Control Modules
Contactor modules fit into
standard XT contactors and
control relays directly on top,
in place of a top-mounted
auxiliary contact block. The
modules fit all XTCE size B
and C frame contactors and
XTRE control relays.
Soft Start Controllers,
Variable Speed Starters and
Variable Frequency Drives
connect to the SmartWire-DT
system with plug-in modules
similar to the approach with
Contactor Modules.
Electronic Motor Starters
with built-in SmartWire-DT
functionality connect directly
to the SmartWire-DT flat
cable without the need for a
supplemental module.
Pilot Device Modules
Pilot device modules fit into
standard M22 pilot devices
in both front-mount and
base-mount configurations
and replace the standard
contact block and light units.
Single and double contact
modules with and without
LEDs are available to meet a
wide variety of control circuit
requirements.
Stacklight Modules
Stacklight modules connect
into Eaton SL4 and SL7
Series stacklights when
mounted to the control
cabinet with Eaton’s Fast
Mount Base. A variety of
incandescent, LED, high-
power LED and audible
signal modules are available
to meet machine indication
requirements.
