The GW PL ETH/BASIC-BUS head station provides an efficient data exchange and
communicates on an Ethernet network. Up to five fieldbus-specific expansion modules can
be connected, and the field device data can be accessed using FDT/DTM, HART IP, and
Modbus TCP. The GW PL ETH/UNI-BUS head station also adds PROFINET
communication. The head station features an embedded web server for configuring the
device, as well as a CommDTM for use with an FDT Frame application, such as PACTware.
