The 750-655 AS Interface master allows fast and seamless integration of the AS-Interface bus protocol as a sub-network to other popular bus protocols, such as Ethernet, Profibus, DeviceNet and Modbus.
The AS-Interface master is housed in a compact, 12mm-wide package and is integrated into the I/O node in the same way as other 750 series I/O modules. The module is compatible with the AS-Interface specification 2.1 and all AS-Interface devices. It is said by the vendor to be downward compatible and easily integrated into existing applications, since the 750-655 is capable of communicating with existing AS-Interface master/slave devices. The 750-655 AS-Interface master can support up to 62 A/B slave devices and offers flexibility to wire the network in star, line, branch or tree configurations. The 750-655 is priced at $324.
