Overview

Anybus X-gateway PROFINET IRT (2.32) is a multi purpose communication solution offering in-
dustrial protocol support as well as web and email capabilities. It acts as a PROFINET device
(slave), which means it can be accessed by a PROFINET controller (master), but it will not ini-
tiate communication by itself.
The PROFINET IRT network interface exchanges data via two memory buffers that can be ac-
cessed via a built in webserver or via industrial network protocols such as PROFINET IO.
