Aparian Release INTERBUS Router and DeviceNet Monitor
The Aparian INTERBUS Router (A-IBR) provides intelligent data routing between legacy INTERBUS networks and modern EtherNet/IP or Modbus TCP systems. The module connects to an existing INTERBUS master and can emulate up to 15 INTERBUS slave devices, allowing input and output data to be exchanged with industrial controllers and other compatible devices.
The Aparian DeviceNet Monitor (A-DNM) provides real-time DeviceNet network monitoring and diagnostics for industrial control applications. It analyses DeviceNet conductor waveforms and identifies warning and alarm conditions to help detect network faults and deteriorating communication quality. Analysis results are communicated directly to a Rockwell Automation ControlLogix or CompactLogix controller over EtherNet/IP, allowing network conditions to be monitored through Logix.
Aparian Releases High Speed Counter
The Aparian High Speed Counter (A-HSC) is an industrial I/O module designed for high-speed counting, frequency measurement, and sequence-of-events (SOE) applications. It provides eight high-speed digital inputs, four digital outputs, four analog inputs, and one analog output. The module supports Ethernet/IP and Modbus TCP communication, allowing counter values, I/O data, and diagnostic information to be exchanged with industrial controllers and other compatible devices. Modbus RTU communication is also supported over RS-232 or RS-485.
ControlNet Router now supports 3rd Party SCADAs / HMIs
For 3rd party SCADA / HMI communication drivers that do not support the manual entry of a (free form) CIP path, the ControlNet Router provides a Virtual Gateway Routing (SCADA) option, where the ControlNet Router emulates an intermediate Logix chassis. This allows, for example, SCADAs like KEPware or Wonderware to communicate with Logix controllers over ControlNet via the ControlNet Router.
PMIO Scanner - Support for STIM IOP
The 1756 PMIO Scanner now supports the Honeywell TDC 3000 ™ Smart Transmitter Interface I/O Processor (STIM IOP). It allows for the configuration, parameterization, and diagnosis of a Digital Enhanced (DE) device in the Slate software (via the STIM IOP). The DE device can be integrated into the Logix environment using the PMIO Scanner (via the STIM IOP).
