DataLine SmartPLC: flexible automation system
Communicative PLC
The DataLine SmartPLC is freely programmable via CODESYS V3 and offers full access to all interfaces of the system. Two Ethernet ports act as EtherCAT fieldbus / slave interface and enable high-performance communication to other PLC systems. Different communication protocols can be used in parallel via two further Ethernet ports, e.g. EtherCAT master, EtherNet/IP scanner, Modbus TCP master and slave, TCP/IP, UDP/IP or OPC/UA server.
Designed for Industry 4.0
The DataLine SmartPLC is best-equipped for Industry 4.0 applications. Towards the PLC, it acts like a classic AS-i gateway and towards IT, any process values can be made available via different communication protocols. An integrated real-time clock and an SD card slot complete the features.
