Ethernet TCP/IP - Coupler


Product Description

The bus coupler BK9000 connects the Ethernet TCP/IP bus system with the electronic terminal blocks, which can be extended in modular fashion. One unit consists of one bus coupler, any number from 1 to 64 terminals and one end terminal.

The bus coupler recognises the connected terminals and automatically generates the affiliations of the inputs/outputs to the bytes of the process image. The first input/output signal is inserted in the first bit of one wort (LSB), beginning from the left. The bus coupler inserts further signals in this wort. Inputs and outputs are clearly separated. The bus coupler automatically begins a further wort if the number of inputs or outputs exceeds 16 bits

Ethernet TCP/IP is used within many areas of the network technique, e.g. for the data communication between industrial PC or printers. The bus connection is made economically by standardized RJ-45 plugs, baud rates are supported by 10 MBaud and 100 MBaud
