AS-i 3.0 PROFIBUS Gateway in Stainless Steel
General
4.3 New Generation of AS-i Gateways with ethernet diagnostics interface
The plus points of the new Gateway generation at a glance:
• Gateways now programmable in C
• Ethernet diagnostics interface for remote diagnostics
• Integrated web server: diagnostics for the Gateways and the AS-i circuits
over Ethernet possible with no additional software
• GSD configuration files already stored in the web server
• Earth fault monitor distinguishes between AS-i cable and sensor cable
• Current from both AS-i circuits in the "1 Gateway, 1 power supply for 2 AS-i
circuits" version can now be read directly on the unit
• Self-resetting fuses in the "1 Gateway, 1 power supply for 2 AS-i circuits" ver-
sion
• Device temperature display
• AS-i Power24V capable
• Interfaces for virtually every bus system and Ethernet solution
4.4 AS-i specification 3.0
The AS-i 3.0 devices already fulfil the AS-i specification 3.0.
The previous specifications (2.1 and 2.0) are supported as well.
Advanced Diagnostics
Diagnostics, which go far beyond the standard diagnostics facilitate the simple
detection of the occasionally occurring configuration errors and further irritations
towards the AS-i communication. So in case of an error the down time of ma-
chines can be minimized or you can initiate preventive maintenance.
Commissioning and monitoring
Commissioning, debugging and setting up of the AS-i parameters can also be ac-
complished with the use of push-buttons on the frontside of the gateway, the dis-
play and the LEDs. It is also possible to do the configuration with the software
"AS-i Control Tools".
