The bus coupler is designed for use as a slave only on a
SERCOS III network.
A switch is not required to set the SERCOS III address.
The bus coupler supports automatic address assignment of the
SERCOS address in accordance with SERCOS III. The address is
stored permanently. Factory setting: address (decimal) 55
The transfer rate is 100 Mbit/s full duplex.
The logic and valve control power supplies are monitored. If the
valve supply voltages fall below a set limit, a diagnostic signal
will be generated and reported via the diagnostic LED and the
diagnostic information.
The bus coupler has 32 valve outputs. This limits the maximum
number of controllable valve solenoids.
Either 16 double solenoid or 32 single solenoid valves can be
controlled in this manner. Valve combinations are also possible.
All SERCOS III standards and guidelines can be found in the
SERCOS International e. V. specifications.
The module supports SERCOS III V1.1.1.
