Anybus AB7312 CAN/Profibus CAN bus CAN bus, USB, Sub-D9 galvanic isolation 24 V DC 1 pc(s)

With AnyBus Communicator CAN, you can integrate CAN-based field devices into a PROFIBUS network. No changes to the serial device are necessary for this.

The AnyBus Communicator CAN is a tried and tested and reliable protocol converter that connects non-networked devices that support CAN-based protocols to PROFIBUS. The Communicator performs intelligent protocol conversion and provides the CAN data of the higher-level PLC as I/O data.

The Communicator is a compact stand-alone gateway for IP20 and DIN rail mounting that requires a 24-volt power supply. It meets the current PROFIBUS specification and has been successfully tested for network compatibility.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Typical applications include frequency converters, sensors, actuators, operator terminals, bar code readers, RFID readers or industrial scales.

Features and benefits
Machine builders / device manufacturers do not need a PROFIBUS interface in their devices.
Enables system integrators to integrate older CAN-based automation devices into PROFIBUS networks (retrofit)
No hardware or software changes are required on the automation device
Compatible with all PLCs that support PROFIBUS
Complete conversion of the CAN protocol, no additional PLC function blocks necessary
Can frames can be defined flexibly for query/response and product/resume protocols
Because of the intelligent I/O data mapping in Communicator, devices with slow CAN communication can also be integrated into the parent network
Qualified, personalized support
