ED6011 | EtherCAT Terminal, 1-channel communication interface, serial, RS232/RS422/RS485, push-in
The ED6011 EtherCAT Terminal enables the connection of serially communicating devices to the automation system. Extensive parameterization options allow flexible adaptation to different communication requirements. The following parameters, among others, can be set via the control or TwinCAT: communication standard (RS232, RS422, or RS485), electrical termination/fail-safe, handshake, baud rate, data format (e.g., 8N1), half-duplex or full-duplex operation, and other options.
The channel provides a 5 V DC supply for the connected remote station. In connection with the TwinCAT 3 Virtual Serial COM Driver (TF6360), the terminal can be used as a Windows COM interface, or alternatively with the TwinCAT 3 Modbus RTU Library as a Modbus RTU interface.
The ED6011 has one serial channel.
Special features:
- powerful driver for high numbers of devices and long lines
- wide baud rate range
- comprehensive parameterization options
- send and receive with distributed clock timestamp
- integrated remote station supply
The ED-series EtherCAT Terminals have push-in connection technology which makes wiring easy and tool-free.
