EtherNet/IP to Allen Bradley Remote I/O or Data Highway Plus DH+ Gateway Converter
AN-X2-AB-DHRIO The EtherNet/IP to Remote I/O or Data Highway Plus DH+ Gateway
The EtherNet/IP to Remote I/O or Data Highway Plus DH+ (AN-X2-AB-DHRIO) Gateway is designed to help customers initiate a phased migration approach to replacing or upgrading legacy Remote I/O, HMI’s or Drives. The AN-X2-AB-DHRIO gateway has multiple operating modes that are selected during initial configuration and are described below.
This mode acts as a bridge between an EtherNet/IP and a DH+ Data Highway Plus network.
*Programming terminals, and/or processors on an EtherNet/IP network can access legacy processors on a Data Highway Plus DH+ network
*Download to a PLC5 or SLC through RSLinx
*Configures through web browser · Supports all Data Highway Plus DH+ baud rates (57.6, 115.2, and 230.4 K baud)
*Communication must be initiated from the EtherNet/IP side, DH+ Messages cannot be sent to EtherNet/IP devices
*Support for DH+ to EtherNet/IP PanelViews upgrades on PLC5 or SLC networks

SPECIFICATIONS
| Remote I/O Scanner Features: This operating mode allows users to replace their existing Remote I/O PLC with a ControlLogix or CompactLogix PAC without having to replace existing racks of I/O. · Build new controller program without interrupting existing controls, minimizing downtime · All Remote I/O baud rates are supported (57.6, 115.2, and 230.4 K baud) · Supports all Remote I/O baud rates (57.6, 115.2, and 230.4 K baud), and Remote I/O addressing 0-76 octal · Works with both ControlLogix or CompactLogix · Auto-Configuration utility discovers baud rate and maps discrete I/O reducing configuration errors |
| Drive: This operating mode supports upgrading legacy Allen Bradley drives on Remote I/O to new EtherNet/IP enabled drives · No changes to PLC code required · Supports up to 4 EtherNet/IP drives · Configurable with 1/4, 1/2 and full rack addressing · Supports all PowerFlex drives on EtherNet/IP |
| HMI This operating mode supports legacy HMI’s on Remote I/O to be upgraded to a PanelView Plus or PanelView Plus 6 on EtherNet/IP. · No changes to PLC code required · Supports up to 8 PanelViews on the same network |
| DH+ This operating mode acts as a bridge between an EtherNet/IP and a Data Highway Plus network. · Programming terminals, and/or processors on an EtherNet/IP network can access legacy processors on a DH+ network · Download to a PLC5 or SLC through RSLinx · Configured through web browser · Supports all DH+ baud rates (57.6, 115.2, and 230.4 K baud) |
| Remote I/O Adapter This operating mode allows PLC’s on Remote I/O to share data with a newer ControlLogix or CompactLogix PAC’s. This mode also allows a ControlLogix processor to monitor Block Transfer and I/O data on an active Remote I/O network without occupying a drop. · Supports up to 15 EtherNet/IP I/O connections to a Logix Processor · Supports any combination of Remote I/O rack addressing · Auto configures rack addressing and baud rate |
