F500 FIELDBUS ADAPTER.
INTRODUCTION
This version of the F500 Elite Fieldbus adapter had been designed to work as a Watchdog
Elite communications gateway and has been designed specifically to allow up to 7
Watchdog NTC control units to be networked together through their own built in
communications system. The network data can then be passed through the Fieldbus
adapter to a Profibus DP network. The communications control unit is housed in a self-
contained wall-mounting enclosure, and will operate from 100-240v AC or from 24v DC.
