Prosoft A-CANBR/B CAN Bus Router/B

The A-CANBR/B CAN Bus Router provides intelligent data routing between

either EtherNet/IP™ or Modbus® TCP/RTU and a CAN Bus network. This

allows the user to integrate CAN Bus devices into a Rockwell Automation

Logix platform (e.g., ControlLogix® or CompactLogix™) or any Modbus

Client or Server device with minimal effort.

The A-CANBR/B also provides a range of statistics, CAN Bus and Modbus

packet capture functions, and internal Modbus and Data table reads to

simplify remote diagnosis. A built-in webserver provides detailed

diagnostics of system configuration and operation, including the display of

CAN Bus operation and communication statistics, without the need for any

additional software.

Features

• Receive up to 100 pre-configured CAN Bus packets.

• Send up to 100 pre-configured CAN Bus packets.

• CAN Bus transmission can be scheduled (periodic), or externally triggered,

sent on Start-up, or any combination.

• Logix L5X generation - Ready for import

• Supports Passthrough Messaging from Logix

• Module has various Primary Interfaces:

o EtherNet/IP Target (Class 1 connection)

o Modbus Server (TCP, RTU232. and RTU485)

o Modbus Client (TCP, RTU232. and RTU485)

o EtherNet/IP Originator (Class 1 connection with up to 10 EtherNet/IP devices

and Explicit Messaging, including

• Direct-To-Tag Logix tag access, with up to 10 EtherNet/IP devices).

• Slate software provides a CAN Bus and Modbus packet capture utility for better

diagnosis of communication issues.

• Supports common CAN Bus Baud Rates (10k, 20k, 50k, 125k, 250k, 500k, 800k, 1M)

• Dual Ethernet ports which support Device-Level-Ring (DLR).

• Network Time Protocol (NTP) supported for external time synchronization.

• Small form factor – DIN rail mounted

• The Slate Configuration Utility software is used for configuration and troubleshooting

of the router. The stand-alone

configuration utility allows users to define the setup and configuration of the router

and its connections with controllers and devices.
