The new X-gateway versions enable easy integration of existing Profibus,
Interbus or CANopen fieldbus networks into new Profinet-based network
segments. The gateways provide a transparent link for up to 240 bytes of
I/O signals between the two networks. Typical applications include
automobile manufacturing sites where existing fieldbus-based machinery
is more and more re-used and integrated “as is” into new Profinet based
areas of the plant. The X-gateways include a Profinet I/O device
interface with IRT functionality, an integrated two-port real-time
switch, Profinet network management and redundancy functionality that
conforms to Profinet conformance class C. The Profinet interface
functions as an I/O device (Slave) and is based on Siemens ERTEC-200
technology. The gateways are Stand-Alone devices built for DIN-Rail
mounting.
