P+F VBG-ENX-K30-DMD-S16-EV AS-Interface Gateway/Safety Monitor

EtherNet/IP und Modbus TCP gateway with integrated safety monitor, double master for 2 AS-Interface networks, power supply input with data decoupling

The VBG-ENX-K30-DMD-S16-EV is an Ethernet/IP+Modbus TCP gateway with an integrierted safety monitor and a double master according to AS-Interface specification 3.0 with a degree of protection IP20.

The gateway has built-in decoupling coils. This allows two AS-Interface circuits to be operated by a single AS-Interface power supply.

The device is a gateway with full functionality combined with a safety monitor. The gateway connects an AS-Interface system to a higher-level Ethernet or Modbus protocol. It acts as a master for the AS-Interface segment and as a slave for Ethernet / Modbus. During cyclic data exchange, the digital data of an AS-Interface segment is transferred. Analog values as well as the complete command set of the new AS-Interface specification are transferred via Ethernet / Modbus using a command interface.

The gateway has four inputs and four outputs. The four inputs are used either for extended EDM device monitoring or as start inputs. Two sets of two outputs act as relay outputs and switch output circuits 1 and 2 and, as semiconductor outputs, output circuits 3 and 4. The K30 model is particularly suitable for installation in a control cabinet.

Configuration of the device can be performed using switches. Seven LED located on the front panel indicate the current status of the AS-Interface segment. One LED shows the power supply via AUX. A further eight LEDs indicate the status of the inputs and outputs.
