MILWAUKEE, Jan. 19, 2006 - Rockwell Automation has added EtherNet/IP networking connectivity to its Allen Bradley GuardPLC line of safety controllers, helping OEMs and end users cost-effectively share critical safety-related information between safety and standard control systems.
密爾沃基2006年1月19日訊—羅克韋爾自動化將EtherNet/IP網(wǎng)絡(luò)連接性添加到了其Allen—Bradley 的GuardPLC安全控制器產(chǎn)品線上,用于幫助OEM生產(chǎn)商和最終用戶在安全系統(tǒng)和標(biāo)準(zhǔn)控制系統(tǒng)之間高效地共享重要的安全相關(guān)信息。
"The ability to transfer vital information from the safety system into the standard control system hasn't always been an easy task for manufacturers," said Jeff Gellendin, product manager, Safety PLCs, Rockwell Automation. "The isolation between the two systems can lead to missing diagnostic information, delayed decision-making, and ultimately reduced productivity."
羅克韋爾自動化安全PLC產(chǎn)品經(jīng)理Jeff Gellendin指出:“對生產(chǎn)商來說,將重要的信息從安全系統(tǒng)傳送到標(biāo)準(zhǔn)控制系統(tǒng)從來就不是一件簡單的事情。這兩個系統(tǒng)之間的隔離可以導(dǎo)致診斷信息的丟失,耽誤決定做出,從而最終降低生產(chǎn)率。”
The Allen-Bradley GuardPLC 1600 and 1800 controllers now can leverage the EtherNet/IP open networking protocol, which extends standard, unmodified Ethernet TCP/IP using an open, industrially proven protocol at the application layer. EtherNet/IP allows users to control, configure and collect data over the same network, allowing users to easily deliver control system information throughout the enterprise.
現(xiàn)在,Allen-Bradley的 GuardPLC1600和1800控制器可以調(diào)節(jié)EtherNet/IP開放式網(wǎng)絡(luò)協(xié)議,從而擴(kuò)大標(biāo)準(zhǔn),未修改的以太網(wǎng)TCP/IP在應(yīng)用層中執(zhí)行開放的工業(yè)檢驗(yàn)協(xié)議。EtherNet/IP允許用戶在同一網(wǎng)絡(luò)上控制、設(shè)定和采集數(shù)據(jù),并且允許用戶在整個企業(yè)里輕松地發(fā)送系統(tǒng)信息。
Troubleshooting is also easier with EtherNet/IP; maintenance workers are often already familiar with Ethernet for other applications and don't need to learn a new network. Rockwell Automation has also added four distributed I/O (DIO) modules to its Allen-Bradley GuardPLC line of safety controllers. The modules include a 8/8 digital input/output, a 16/8 digital input/output, an analog input/output and relay output. The two digital I/O modules have bipolar outputs for use with robot controllers and other specialty output devices. The analog module has eight safety-rated inputs and four standard analog outputs. The relay module has eight isolated relays that can be used to switch power or provide a dry contact as an enable signal.
通過EtherNet/IP,故障排查同樣輕而易舉。熟悉了其他應(yīng)用的以太網(wǎng)的維護(hù)工人不再需要學(xué)習(xí)一個新的網(wǎng)絡(luò)。羅克韋爾自動化同樣在Allen—Bradley 的GuardPLC安全控制器產(chǎn)品線添加了四個分布式I/O (DIO)模塊。這些模塊帶有一個8/8數(shù)字輸入/輸出接口,一個16/8數(shù)字輸入/輸出接口,以及一個模擬輸入/輸接口和繼電器輸出口。這兩個數(shù)字I/O模塊帶有兩極輸出口,用于機(jī)器人控制器和其他專業(yè)輸出設(shè)備。模擬模塊擁有八個安全相關(guān)輸入口和四個標(biāo)準(zhǔn)模擬輸出口。繼電器模塊帶有四個獨(dú)立的繼電器,用于轉(zhuǎn)換電源或者提供一個干式接點(diǎn)作為可用信號。
The GuardPLC 1600 and 1800 controllers feature a built-in, four-port Ethernet switch, making it simple to connect the I/O blocks. With the addition of the EtherNet/IP protocol, an entire Ethernet solution can be implemented using just one wire for both safety and standard network layers, which reduces costs and the time necessary to wire the machine or cell. The GuardPLC 1600 and 1800 with EtherNet/IP connectivity along with all four new modules for the GuardPLC controller are currently shipping.
GuardPLC 1600 和 1800 控制器帶有內(nèi)建的四端口以太網(wǎng)開關(guān),方面了跟I/O程序塊的連接。通過外加的EtherNet/IP協(xié)議,一整個以太網(wǎng)方案的實(shí)施就僅需要一條線用于連接安全和標(biāo)準(zhǔn)網(wǎng)絡(luò)層,這就大大的減少了連接機(jī)器或者單元所必要的成本和時間。帶有EtherNet/IP 連接性的GuardPLC 1600 和 1800 ,以及一起應(yīng)用于GuardPLC控制器的四個新模塊將在近期推出。
