 |
| Temperature control network |
|
 |
| When connected with the inverter, temperature controller, or servo system with communication function, made by different manufacturers, data can be monitored or parameters set on the POD. |
 |
|
- UG30 can communicate with inverter, temperature controller,
and servo system via RS-232C/485 without any programs. |
| - Up to 31 units can be connected when RS-485 is used. |
| - Both serial connection and connection via communication unit are possible between PLC and POD. |
|
|
|
| PLC2-Way |
|
|
|
 |
Two PLCs of different manufacturers or different series can be connected to a POD. The POD acts as gateway between different PLCs.
|
| When a new facility has to be extended to an existing facility, the old facility can transfer data with the new facility's PLC via POD, without any program change of the old PLC. |
|
|
| Modbus slave communications function |
|
|
Allows data communications between PLCs of different makers via POD using the temperature control network (ModbusFree).
|
 |
| Modbus communications can be used from a personal computer to access the internal memory of POD and memories of PLCs and inverters. |
 |
|
|
| Ethernet |
|
|
| The model with Ethernet 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T equipped as standard is prepared. This standard model permits construction of the Ethernet network system. The Ethernet system can also be configured with models without Ethernet 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T once it is equipped with option. |
|
 |
 |
|
| Web server function |
|
|
|
 |
| HTML files stored in the CF card can be displayed using a browser on a personal computer or set from the browser, making it possible to monitor or change settings of PLC and inverter data through the POD from a remote site. JPEG files stored in the CF card can also be monitored. |
|
|
E-mail distribution function
|
|
|
|
 |
| As E-mail can be distributed via the mail server upon system failure, prompt action can be taken or breakdown of an automatically operating system be recognized quickly. Maximum 8 addresses may be registered. (A mail server is required on the LAN.) |
|
|
| UG-Link |
|
|
|
 |
| Even when the POD is connected to a PLC, the POD can be accessed from a personal computer. The communication rate is max. 115 kbps. Besides, using only a single communication program for between POD and the personal computer, you can access data of PLCs of different manufacturers from the personal computer via the POD. |
|
|
| Multi-Link 2 |
|
|
|
 |
| This network enables high-speed communications with PLCs, using the standard serial port of the POD. Maximum 4 units of POD can be connected to one unit of PLC. While the communication rate between POD and PLC depends on the PLC, communication rate between PODs is 115kbps. |
