Network Module for DeviceNet

DeviceNet represents a cost-effective solution for the network integration of low-level terminal
equipment. Up to 64 devices including a master can be integrated in one network. For the data
exchange a cable with two shielded twisted-pair cables is used.

Network Module for CANopen

CANopen is an "open" implementation of the Controller Area Network (CAN), which is defined in
the EN50325-4 standard. CANopen offers cost effective network communications with
fault-resistant network structure where components of different manufacturers can be inte-
grated quickly and easily. CANopen networks are used for connecting sensors, actuators and
controllers in a variety of applications. The bus uses inexpensive twisted-pair cabling.

The DeviceNet slave module FX2N-64DNET can be used
to connect FX
lers to a DeviceNet network.
The FX2N-64DNET can communicate to the master by
the master/slave communication (using the master/slave
POW ER
I/O connection), and to other nodes supporting the UCMM
connection by client/server communication.
