Ethernet IP Adapter to PROFINET Controller Gateway / epGate PN

Integration of PROFINET I/O Devices through mapping into Ethernet IP Control systems


The epGate PN implements a gateway between an EtherNet/IP scanner (e.g. a Rockwell PLC) and up to 32 PROFINET devices. While the gateway's upper RJ45 socket connects to the EtherNet/IP network as a so-called Adapter (slave), the gateway acts as a PROFINET controller (master) through its lower RJ45 socket. This allows for integration of PROFINET devices and subsystems into EtherNet/IP applications. The Communication Configuration Tool that comes with epGate PN assists in defining the PROFINET configuration and provides ready to use symbolic mapping information for the EtheNet/IP PLC's engineering software. This way the user is relieved from the error-prone task of defining data for both sides of the gateway individually.
