XCNet-MB-S is a high-performance protocol conversion gateway, which can realize Siemens PLC with Ethernet interface (S7-1200/1500, S7-300PN, S7200 SMART, etc.), Siemens Ethernet module (CP243-1, CP343- 1, etc.) ModbusRTU serial communication and ModbusTCP master-slave communication. The module integrates WiFi function, supports AP mode, STA mode and AP+STA mode, which is convenient for building WiFi network, PLC programming, data acquisition and data exchange can be performed through WiFi.
XCNet-MB-S supports two-way ModbusRTU master-slave communication, without PLC programming, without GSD file import, convenient for DCS system collection, instrument data reading, etc.
The LAN/WiFi of XCNet-MB-S integrates ModbusTCP and BCNetS7 server communication functions, and the Modbus mapping relationship can be edited freely; it integrates data exchange functions, and supports data exchange between Siemens S7-1200/1500 and SMART S7-200 and other network port PLCs; Integrated ModbusTCP client function, supports reading and writing ModbusTCP slave devices, without PLC programming.
XCNet-MB-S Features:
- Installed on a 35mm guide rail, LAN is three RJ45 ports, with switch function, LAN is connected to PLC, touch screen and host computer; X1 and X2 are RS485 serial bus interfaces; WiFi external high-gain antenna can be connected to the host computer ; XCNet external 24VDC power supply;
- Integrated WEB server, device parameters and operation diagnosis can be set through the webpage; it can also be configured through the BCDevice tool; it can be configured arbitrarily from LAN or WiFi;
- Support two-way serial ModbusRTU master-slave communication, which can extend the ModbusRTU serial bus to S7-1200, S7-1500, S7200 SMART and other network port PLCs, without PLC programming or GSD file import;
- Support ModbusTCP server function, which can map LAN-connected PLC to ModbusTCP server with LAN/WiFi interface;
- Support data exchange function, which can realize data exchange between Siemens network port PLC, Siemens network port PLC and ModbusTCP device data exchange, ModbusTCP instrument data reading, without PLC programming;
- Support the BCNetS7 protocol server function, which can map the PLC connected by LAN to the BCNetS7 protocol server of the LAN/WiFi interface;
- Integrated WiFi function, support AP mode, STA mode and AP+STA mode;
- PLC programming, data acquisition and data exchange can be performed through WiFi;
- Realize the connection of SmartIE series touch screen to PLCs such as S7-1200 and S7-1500;
- The LAN/WiFi interface can support up to 32 host computer access;
- SCADA (upper configuration software) that supports OPC channel communicates with PLC in OPC mode;
- Support firmware update on the user side through Ethernet, provide firmware with more functions for free, buy hardware once, and upgrade permanently.
