X-gateway
™
The Anybus X-gateway family is a product line
consisng of over 200 proven, robust and ready-
to-use gateways aimed to connect almost every
possible combinaon of two industrial networks.
Anybus X-gateway allows system integrators to easily
transfer I/O data between devices on two
dierent PLC systems and networks, enabling a
consistent informaon ow throughout the
enre plant.
Features and Benets
• Simple way to transmit I/O data between any two industrial
networks
• Over 200 dierent network combinaons (master, scanner,
slave, adapter, I/O device, server)
• Interconnects dierent PLC systems (Siemens, Rockwell,
Schneider, Mitsubishi, Omron, Beckho etc)
• I/O data transfer with average throughput between networks
of 10 - 15 ms
• Addional parameter data supported (depending on network
combinaon)
• Oponal control and status informaon added to the I/O data
for diagnosc purposes
• Included Anybus OPC server for extended funconality with
Ethernet versions
• Anybus master conguraon tool included free of charge with a
Probus, DeviceNet or EtherNet/IP Master/Scanner
• Robust stand-alone metal housing with HazLoc, ATEX, CE
and RoHS cercaons
• Global free technical support and consultancy
• See www.anybus.com for applicaon notes and instrucon
videos on how to congure the X-gateways
Typical Industries
Easy Conguration
No programming skills are needed to
set up the X-gateway.
The conguraon of the X-gateway
is made via the in-built conguraon
interface. For this purpose a PC with
an installed terminal program (eg.
Windows™ Hyper Terminal) can be
connected via a serial RS-232 cable
to the conguraon port of the
X-gateway. A terminal editor program
is available for download at
www.anybus.com
The easy-to-use conguraon
interface allows you to dene the
I/O data sizes on each network side
and to dene the data mapping and
separaon between cyclic I/O data
and parameter data.
In-short
Anybus X-gateways enable I/O data
connecvity between almost any
two industrial networks or PLC
systems.
