Connecting devices with a serial Rockwell DF1 interface
The Communicator handles the complete serial protocol without the need for extensive PLC function blocks. This compact gateway consumes very little space in a switching cabinet and is easily mounted on a standard DIN-rail.
For devices with a Rockwell DF1 serial interface, the Communicator functions as a DF1 Master in half duplex mode. With its selectable RS-232/422/485 interface, It is possible connect multiple DF1 devices using one Communicator. Therefore making for a very cost effective industrial network connection.
