Communication module
January 29, 2014
To implement master/slave Ethernet® communication at 10- or 100-Mbit data rates, the co. offers the H4-ECOM100 module for DirectLOGIC DL405 PLC. The co. says the communication module can be inserted into any I/O slot of any local DL405 base, including expansion bases when using the DL450 CPU and -1 bases, adding that the module supports the industry-standard MODBUS TCP/IP client/server protocol, in addition to standard IP and IPX protocols. This, the co adds, allows a DL405 PLC with an H4-ECOM100 module to serve as a client or a server on a MODBUS TCP/IP Ethernet network, with the module also able to be configured to actively issue MODBUS commands to other nodes or devices on the network.
