Overview

The communications adapter provides an electronic communications
interface between a DeviceNet network and any single SCANport
product.

Figure 1.2
Example of 2100-GK61 Modules Connecting SCANport Products

to DeviceNet

In Figure 1.2, a SCANport cable connects a 2100-GK61 module to a
SCANport product through a port on the SCANport product. A
DeviceNet cable connects the module to the DeviceNet network. The
module then translates the DeviceNet messages into SCANport
messages that can be understood by the connected product.

The adapter is also capable of connecting to four (4) common switch
inputs. These inputs can monitor status of disconnect switches, starter
and contactor auxiliary contact, relays, push buttons, or any ON-OFF
device capable of switching 230Vac, 115Vac, or 24Vdc.
