The CBE30 Communication Board allows SIMOTION D4x5 to be connected to a PROFINET IO network. The SIMOTION D4x5 then assumes the function of a PROFINET IO controller and can perform the following functions:
PROFINET IO controller, I-Device (also controller and device simultaneously)
100 Mbit/s full-duplex/autocrossing
Supports real-time classes of PROFINET IO:
RT (Real Time)
IRT (Isochronous Real Time)
Integration of distributed I/O as PROFINET IO devices
Integration of drives as PROFINET IO devices through PROFIdrive according to the V4 specification
Support for standard Ethernet communication, e.g.
for interfacing with SIMOTION SCOUT
for the connection of HMI systems
for communication with any other devices over TCP/IP or UDP communication
Integrated 4-port switch with four RJ45 sockets based on the PROFINET ASIC ERTEC400. The optimum topology (line, star, tree) can therefore be configured without additional external switches.
