Product Description
Description
EtherNet/IP to PROFIBUS DP Master Gateway
Simple connection of PROFIBUS DP Slave Devices to EtherNet/IP Control Systems via Internal I/O Mapping
With epGate DP it is possible to integrate one PROFIBUS DP segment into EtherNet/IP control systems. With epGate DP the engineering costs can be reduced since it re-uses existing PROFIBUS DP segment without the requiring modification. It enables configuration, parameterization and plant asset management using standard industry tools.
Similar Solutions
- epGate PA: Integrate up to 4 PROFIBUS PA segments into EtherNet/IP systems
- epGate PB: Integrate up to 2 PROFIBUS PA segments & 1 PROFIBUS DP segment into EtherNet/IP systems
- epGate PN: Integrate PROFINET I/O devices into EtherNet/IP systems
Overview
Configuration, Parameterization and Plant Asset Management Using Standard Industry Tools
- Supports major EtherNet/IP engineering tools such as Studio 5000 and AMS Device Manager
- Included CommDTM allowing use in FDT/DTM frame applications
- EDD-based device parametrization using Siemens Simatic PDM
Direct Connectivity to PROFIBUS Segments
