Connection of field devices to Industrial Ethernet with PROFINET
Ideally suited for design of small local networks through integral 4-port real-time switch
Direct memory access to process data by linking as PROFINET IO-Controller via IO-Base interface
High computing power is available in the PC by taking the load off the host CPU by means of a real-time ASIC ERTEC 400 with support of the PROFINET real-time features RT and IRT
Implementation in Motion Control applications thanks to support of IRT
Energy savings thanks to support of PROFIenergy
Simple transfer to various operating system environments using Development Kit DK-16xx PN IO
Switch mode also with the PC switched off, via optional external power supply (in RT mode only)
Uncrossed connecting cables can be used due to the integrated autocrossover function
