The DeviceNet Master Module is a cost-effective way to control a DeviceNet network. The GLC2000 Series units are a Human Machine Interface (HMI) and PLC all-in-one. This module adds DeviceNet Master capabilities to a GLC2000 unit and uses IEC 61131-3 compliant ladder logic to control I/O.
FEATURES
Overview
The GLC is a controller and HMI all-in-one that won't break your machine's "control budget."
By adding the CA2-DNMALL-41 to a GLC2000, you get a popular distributed I/O architecture that will add functionality and benefits previously unheard of.
Now you can put your controller (with touch screen) in a convenient location, and take up less space in your cabinet. One device to mount means quicker installation time.
One software package programs both the screen graphics and ladder logic - saving you time. You can even drag-and-drop variable names from one to the other, which can save "fat finger" mistakes.
Why DeviceNet?
1. Hundreds of vendors have I/O available.
2. Established.
3. Fast, easy installation - resulting in space and time savings.
4. Future-ready, for easy additions as your needs expand and change.
5. Improved uptime through intelligent insight into device operations.
6. Efficient bandwidth utilization through producer/consumer communications.
