Overview

Module features

The

PSSnet GW1 MOD-EtherCAT

}

operates as a protocol converter between Modbus/TCP and

EtherCAT,

}

can be used to exchange data between products that support Modbus/TCP or

Ether-

CAT . For example, this may be a control system from the automation system

PSS 4000 from Pilz on one side and a third-party product on the other. The third party
product must support

EtherCAT .

Features of the

PSSnet GW1 MOD-EtherCAT:

}

Can be used with Pilz products that support Modbus/TCP:

– Control systems from the automation system PSS 4000 (e.g. PSSu H)
– Compact/modular 3rd generation PSS-range programmable safety systems (e.g.

PSS SB 3006-3 ETH-2, PSS(1) SB CPU3 ETH-2)

– Operator terminals PMI with Modbus/TCP interface (e.g. PMI 5)
– Motion control systems (e.g. PMCprimo Drive3, PMCprimo DriveP, PMCprimo 16+)

}
