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 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.
The ANC-550 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-550 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.
ANC-500 Highlights using the Microsoft Windows®-based ICC Configuration Studio include:
- Configure protocols, network characteristics, and client/server object definitions
- Graphically interact with the internal database in real-time
- Automatically update device firmware
- Define autonomous internal elements such as database logic and object failsafe values
- Capture, display and save serial network traffic with microsecond-precision timestamps The ANC-500 incorporates a variety of leading-edge automation technology elements, such as:
