The Anybus X-gateway consists of two Anybus fieldbus or Ethernet network interface modules and an intelligent gateway platform which transfers data between the two networks. The X-gateway can be configured via a USB port using a Windows-based application, Anybus Configuration Manager. The on-board network interfaces are normally configured from the re- spective networks, using third-party configuration tools.
The terminology and definitions used for different types of data vary between different network types. Most networks distinguish between fast, cyclical I/O data, and less time-critical acyclic data. In the Anybus X-gateway these types of data are generally referred to respectively as I/O Data and Parameter Data.
Runtime status and diagnostic information can be provided through the Status Word, which (if enabled) takes up the first two bytes of the output area (data to the network). The Status Word is disabled by default and must be enabled for each network separately through Anybus Configuration Manager. (MSB) (LSB)

The list is assembled by the master interface and forwarded to the other network each gateway cycle. The Live List functionality is disabled by default and must be enabled for the master interface through Anybus Configuration Manager. Offset bit 0...
See the Network Guide for the respective interface for more information. Error Handling If a network goes offline the X-gateway can either freeze (keep the current value) or clear (set to zero) the data from the network that has gone offline. Which action to take can be selected via Anybus Configuration Manager.
Data Mapping Examples Usage of the Control Word, Status Word and Live List affect how data is mapped to the network interfaces in the Anybus X-gateway. The following generic examples describe typical configurations. The actual representation of data on the network is highly network-specific and is described in the Network Guide for the re- spective interface.

Some parameters in the gateway may however need to be adjusted to suit specific networks and applications. The gateway settings are accessed via the USB port of the X-gateway using the Windows- based application Anybus Configuration Manager.
