Figure 1.2 BD525 EtherNet/IP communication board
The BD525 EtherNet/IP board supports 1 channel of EtherNet/IP scanner, which is equivalent to the existing fieldbus master, and 1 channel of EtherNet/IP, which is equivalent to the existing fieldbus slave.
In case of EtherNet/IP scanners, network configuration requires separate configuration software, SYCON.net. SYCON.net and the BD535 board are to be connected through USB.
In case of EtherNet/IP adapters, separate software is not needed. IP address and size of input and output data, for example, can be set using a teach pendant.
When required, some parts of the EtherNet/IP scanner or of the EtherNet/IP adapter may not be assembled during the production process.
