Description
✔✔✔ Unconnected Messaging permits other network devices (e.g. PanelView
™
) to communicate directly to a drive without routing the
communication through the network scanner.
✔✔✔✔ ✔ ✔ ✔Adapter Routing – Plug PC into one drive and talk to all other Allen-Bradley drives on same network, without being routed through
the network scanner.
✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔Access to 100% of all parameters over the network.
✔✔ ✔ ✔ AutoBaud capability makes initial connections less problematic.
✔ Change of State significantly reduces network traffic by configuring control messages to be sent only upon customer defined states.
Very flexible configuration for each node (Example: “reference must change by more than 5%”).
✔✔ Peer Control provides master-slave type control between drives, where one or more slave drives (consumers) can run based on the
status of a master drive (producer), which can also significantly reduce network traffic.
✔ Automatic Device Replacement (ADR) saves significant time and effort when replacing a drive, by allowing the scanner to be
configured to automatically detect a new drive and download the required parameter settings.
✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔Flexible Fault Configuration – Adapters can be programmed to take fault based actions such as ramp to stop, coast-to-stop, and
hold last state, as well as send user configurable logic control and speed reference values. In addition, different actions can be taken
based on whether the network experienced a serious problem (broken cable, etc.) versus a network idle condition (PLC set to
“Program”).
