Network Instrumentation Modules are multichannel controllers with Ethernet connectivity (MODBUS/TCP). Start up the PLC, touch panel, and sensors along with the system via Ethernet connection.
In addition to controllers, the lineup includes a wide variety of module types, including digital I/O modules and pulse counters.
Each module can be connected to the Ethernet individually. An engineering tool (SLP-NX) that enables collective setting of all channels and collective monitoring is also available.
Features- Ethernet connectivity
- High-speed communication with other devices is possible via Ethernet as a standard feature.
- Connection to a PLC can be made directly with the MODBUS/TCP master function, without using a data converter.
- Genuine distributive control is achieved with savings on wire and distribution of functions.
- Optimal cooperative control among multiple channels
- Multichannel cooperative control is achieved among modules by a supervisor module.
- Collective setting, collective monitoring
- The configuration tool is also equipped with Ethernet connectivity, enabling collective management of channel settings and monitoring, thereby increasing engineering efficiency.
