ANC-500e Profibus DP-VI Slave to serial protocols

ANC-500 PROFIBUS TO MODBUS RTU / MULTIPLE SERIAL PROTOCOL GATEWAY CONVERTER.

THE AUTOMATION NETWORKS ANC-500 PROFIBUS DP-V1 GATEWAY ALLOWS INFORMATION TO BE TRANSFERRED SEAMLESSLY BETWEEN PROFIBUS AND RS-485 NETWORKS WITH MINIMAL CONFIGURATION REQUIREMENTS.

The Automation Networks ANC-500 PROFIBUS DP-V1 Gateway allows information to be transferred seamlessly between PROFIBUS and RS-485 networks with minimal configuration requirements. The ANC-550 provides a PROFIBUS port (DB-9 female connector) and an RS-485 port (4-wire terminal block style). The RS-485 port supports multiple protocols. PLC-style logical, arithmetic and filtering database manipulation operations allow the construction of complex autonomous data conditioning functions.

ANC-500

The ANC-500 is a part of the ANC Gateway Series product family. The ANC platform is designed to provide a uniform interface, configuration and application experience. This commonality reduces the user’s learning curve, reducing commissioning time while simplifying support.

The ANC-500 is a user-configurable multiprotocol Profibus DPV1 / RS-485 communications gateway, which allows seamless bridging between Profibus networks and various popular RS-485 based industrial and commercial communication networks.

RS485 Serial Protocols:

The ANC-500 Gateway has the flexibility to choose Modbus Master/Slave as well as  other RS485 serial protocols which include: Modbus Sniffer, A.O. Smith AIN, A.O. Smith PDNP, BACnet MS/TP Client, BACnet MS/TP Server, TCS Basys Master, MSA Chillgard Monitor, DMX 512-Master, DMX-512 Slave, M-Bus Master, Metasys N2 Master, Metasys N2 Slave, Siemens FLN Master, Siemens FLN Slave, Sullair Master, Toshiba ASD Master, Toshiba PLC Maste

The ANC-300e Gateway Converter Series Features Include:

The ANC-300e converter provides a similiar, single platform configuration experience in all ANC Gateway Converters.  The setup is performed using the Microsoft Windows®-based ANC Configuration Studio, in which users can do the following:

  • Setup protocols, network parameters, and object definitions of the client/server.
  • Use the grapics with the real-time internal database.
  • Automatically update device firmware
  • Define autonomous elements such as database logic, email alarms and object failsafe values
  • Capture, display and save serial network traffic with microsecond-precision timestamps.

The ANC-300e Gateway incorporates a variety of leading-edge automation and IT technologies, such as:

  • USB connectivity with virtual COM port support
  • 10/100Base-T Ethernet port
  • Power can be applied three different ways: via the USB cable (for configuration at a workstation), as a 7-24VDC input on the main terminal block, or via IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet / PoE (no need for a local power supply!)
  • Internal operations managed by a pair of powerful 32-bit processors
  • Autonomous alarm evaluation with email notification
  • Real-time web browser-based interaction via an Adobe® Flash Player plug-in.
  • This includes support for database interaction and a dashboard GUI with multiple windows, each of which can be configured to display data in a variety of meter/graph/gauge formats
  • User-configurable network timeout behaviors
    2-wire / 4-wire RS-485 network supports baud rates up to 115.2kbaud
  • Desktop, panel/wall and DIN-rail mountable (all hardware included)
  • PLC-style logical, arithmetic, trigonometric and filtering database manipulation operations allow the construction of complex data conditioning functions
