PCU-ETHIO

PCU-ETHIO Profinet card

Particularly, the Direct-Link™ PCU-ETHIO network interface card provides high-speed deterministic communication between real time applications such as PC-based Control, Softlogic packages, and various I/O devices communicating through Ethernet industrial networks – through Open Modbus or Rockwell
EtherNet/IP messaging

A smart A.D.M (Automatic Dual port ram Mapping) mechanism avoids the I/O tags configuration in the Dual Port RAM of the card. More than a simple I/O acquisition card, the Direct-Link™ PCU-ETHIO interface provides the applications with additional information such as: device status and diagnostics, process data read/write monitoring, communication tools for troubleshooting, hardware and software Watchdog, etc.

The communication (Ethernet messaging layers) is completely embedded on the cards, allowing easy and fast communication with field devices resulting in remarkable application performance.

Product package includes:
Graphical console for configuration and diagnostic tools
Data servers (OPC DA 1.0a & 2.05, ActiveX, FastDDE/SuiteLink)
I/O libraries for Windows (DLL) and VenturCom's hard real time
extensions (RTX)
Drivers soft-logic packages
Static library for non-windows OS
