The IEI (Bridge Industrial Ethernet) interface card was designed to allow the connection of the LT4 and DCS4 drivers to a Profinet or Modbus TCP / IP system, allowing the connection of up to 12 axes (12 LT4 or 3 DCS4 / DCS4-E) via Hexar X-Bus and to command movements in position / speed via Profinet and GSD dedicated for Profinet. It is also possible to manage IOEXP digital I / O expansion cards.
The LT4 and DCS4 drivers are connected in cascade to each other simply by connecting them with a standard ethernet cable, each board is self-enumerating and is connected on the fly to the driver chain.
The IEI board is equipped with a hardware configuration system that allows, through AxDev and the LAN network, to configure and monitor each driver connected to the IEI.
The use of a single interface to Profinet allows you to simplify configuration and keep costs much lower than solutions that use Profinet on individual drivers.
* Bridge Profinet / Modbus TCP / IP for stepper driver
* Allows you to connect LT4 or DCS4 to the industrial ethernet bus, up to 12 axes on a single IEI with Hexar X-Bus
* The use of the bridge together with standard drivers allows you to significantly reduce the total cost compared to individual Profinet drivers
* Programmable with PLC on board
* Rs485 port for connection with other devices
* Digital inputs and digital outputs
