Anybus connectivity solutions for HMIs and displays

HMS offers different types of Anybus connectivity solutions for HMIs and displays

 

Integrate existing HMI/displays into a PLC control system (fieldbus or industrial Ethernet)

Connect a non-networked HMI/display to a PLC control system (via its serial or CAN interface)

Embed multi-network capability into a new HMI/display series 

Wirelessly access a machine using a tablet as a HMI for configuration and troubleshooting

Integrate an existing HMI into a PLC control system

Integrate any HMI/display with a proprietary industrial network to any fieldbus or industrial Ethernet network.

Scenario

Need to connect two different cells on the factory floor where HMIs and displays are connected to two different PLC systems running different industrial networks.

 

Solution

Anybus® X-gateways™ connect any TWO combinations of fieldbus or industrial Ethernet networks. The X-gateways primary function is fast transfer of cyclic I/O data between the two networks  

  • Over 200 individual network combination gateway versions available - compatible with all PLC brands
  • Master/Scanner interfaces for CANopen, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP and PROFIBUS can eliminate the need for an additional expense of a PLC Master Controller.

Anybus gateways and networks

Connect a serial or CAN-based HMI/display to a PLC system

Connect any non-networked HMI/display via its serial RS-232/422/485 or CAN interface to any fieldbus or industrial Ethernet network.

Scenario

Keep a well-performing, non-networked device by connecting it to a PLC control system using its serial RS-232/422/485 or CAN-based interface. No need for any hardware or software changes.

 

Solution

Anybus® Communicator™ connects to the HMI/Displays RS-232/422/485 interface and translates the serial or CAN data stream into a fieldbus or industrial Ethernet protocol. The device will then be represented as a Slave/Adapter on the PLC control network. 

  • Versions available for all major fieldbus and industrial Ethernet networks
  • Performs complete serial protocol conversion, no PLC function blocks or programming required
  • Keep your existing HMI/Display as is - No hardware or software changes needed!

Anybus Communicator family

Integrate real-time industrial Ethernet and fieldbus capability

Give your new HMI/Display an integrated real-time networking solution for industrial Ethernet and fieldbus.

Scenario

Require integrated fieldbus and industrial Ethernet connectivity for new range HMI range. Require a mix of traditional fieldbuses but also want to have several Industrial Ethernet networks to expand the global sales potential on all markets. In addition, there are cost, time and conformance issues.

 

Solution

Anybus® CompactCom™ products are ready-made communication interfaces for fieldbus and industrial Ethernet, which you design in to give your HMI/Display a multi-network slave/adapter interface. You choose the form factor depending on how integrated you want the solution to be — Chip, Brick or Module.

  • Real-Time Industrial Ethernet with fast data transfer: up to 1500 bytes of process data each way with very low latency
  • Multi-network capability through just one in-design

Wireless access to machines BYOD 

Use a tablet as a BYOD (bring your own device) as a HMI replacement for wireless machine access

Scenario

Save on your machine costs by using your smartphone, tablet or laptop as an HMI replacement for making machine configuration and troubleshooting.

 

Solution

Anybus® Wireless Bolt™ is mounted onto the machine cabinet and connects via Ethernet, Serial RS-232/485 or CAN to the controller. Using either Bluetooth or WLAN you can access the controller and its live data, all from a safe distance.

  • All-in-one solution with connector, communication processor and integrated antenna in the same unit.
  • Provides for an exterior IP67 protection class, with with a max range of 100 meters
