Servida Products      DeviceNet™

DeviceNet™ and ProfiBus are open network standards that provide reduced system complexity and significant reductions in wiring costs. Both options are gateways to the Servida™ Motor’s secondary port. This allows the Servida™ Motor to be placed on a Standard Bus with devices from other manufacturers such as sensors, inverters, etc.

The DeviceNet™ and ProfiBus Servida™ Motors are modular in design, with the standard Servida™ Motor module adapted to work in conjunction with a DeviceNet™ or ProfiBus gateway. The DeviceNet™ and ProfiBus gateways use a separate dedicated controller for operation which means that varying network traffic demands will not affect the ability of the Servida™ Motor to handle motion and Input/Outnput tasks. The standard Servida™ Motor is equipped with two serial ports. The gateways use the second port.

DeviceNet™ Features:
• Based on controller area network (CAN protocol)
• Ability to directly connect devices to a network
• Provides device level diagnostics
• Interoperability from vendor to vendor
• Efficient bandwidth utilization through producer/consumer communications
