Motion Bus and Fieldbuses
The controller can be connected to multiple Ethernet Ethernet is a large, diverse family of frame-based computer networking technologies that operate at many speeds for local area networks (LANs). devices simultaneously by connecting a switch to the top of the controller:

See the Controller Performance Guidelines for information on how the CPU load is affected when transmitting and receiving data between network devices and PLC Programmable Logic Controller - A digital computer used for automation of industrial processes, such as control of machinery on factory assembly lines. Used to synchronize the flow of inputs from (physical) sensors and events with the flow of outputs to actuators and events. variables.

EtherNet/IP
The KAS Kollmorgen Automation Suite Runtime In computer science, runtime (or run-time) describes the operation of a computer program, the duration of its execution, from beginning to termination (compare compile time). In KAS, runtime refers to the virtual machine that manage the program written in a computer language while it is running. includes a fully integrated EtherNet IP EtherNet/IP™ is an open industrial application layer protocol for industrial automation applications. The EtherNet/IP application layer protocol is based on the CIP layer. Adapter driver In computing and electronics, a driver is a software component allowing higher-level computer programs to interact with a computer hardware device. A driver typically communicates with the device through the computer bus or communications subsystem to which the hardware is connected. and Scanner driver for exchanging data with EtherNet/IP tag-based devices such as PLCs.
- EtherNet/IP Adapter (server), Scanner (client), Tag Client, and FlexIO/Point IO configurations are supported.
- Use drag and drop for mapping PLC variables to PROFINET.
- Setting up EtherNet/IP IO Scanner (Client).
- Setting up EtherNet/IP Adapter (Server).
- Setting up EtherNet/IP Tag Client.
Modbus and TCP/IP
- Setting up Modbus Slave.
PROFINET
This fieldbus is PROFIBUS PROFIBUS is the most popular type of fieldbus used worldwide. See Fieldbus. over Ethernet.
We define one controller and have one or more devices.
Configuration
