FST Dfs Controlnet x30

The driver allows a FieldServer to emulate a single ControlNet slave station. A FieldServer can connect to a ControlNet network via BNC connectors and be scheduled by a configuration tool to exchange up to 450 bytes of data via scheduled communication. It supports common data types like integers, floats, and bits for transferring data to and from a ControlNet master via input and output buffers.

ControlNet X30 Adapter Driver


Description The FieldServer ControlNet X30 Adapter driver can be used to emulate a single slave station on a ControlNet network. ControlNet scanners can open a connection of up to 450 Bytes in each direction to the FieldServer. Data transfers are via Scheduled Communication and therefore the FieldServer has to be scheduled on the ControlNet network with the use of a Network Configuration Tool such as RSNetWorx or RSLogix. The minimum supported network update time (NUT) is 5ms. Connection to the ControlNet network is via two standard BNC connector ports. The connection may be to either one or both of the ControlNet ports. A connection to both ports provides dual redundant operation. A Network Access Port (NAP) is also provided for the temporary connection of a Network Configuration Tool. Fieldserver Mode Server Nodes 1 Comments The FieldServer can only emulate one ControlNet Slave station
