Ethernet Powerlink Bus Controller

Oct. 10, 2006
The X20 bus controller based on Ethernet Powerlink is billed as the most compact Ethernet bus controller available, with a system width of just 37.5mm.
Made up of a base module, a supply module to supply voltage for the entire system, and a fieldbus interface, the bus controller is a flexible fieldbus connection. The entire bus-independent backplane can be preinstalled, and prewiring is also possible, thanks to removable terminals. To transfer or receive I/O data on the fieldbus, the bus controller does not need to be programmed. It works simply by configuring the fieldbus master.B&R Industrial Automation Corp.www.br-automation.comPhone: 770.772.0400
