Introduction
General Information
The Anybus Communicator Ethernet-USS Gateway functions as a gateway between the Universal Serial
Interface Protocol (from now on referred to as 'USS') and PROFINET IO. Acting as a slave with Real
Time capabilities on the PROFINET side, and as a master on the USS network, it controls up to 31 USS
slaves.
The gateway can be configured solely via the PROFINET configuration tool, i.e. no proprietary config-
uration utilities are required.
The built-in web server allows monitoration of data through an easy to use web-based user interface.
Additionally, a built-in email client can issue email-messages as the status of the slaves on the USS net-
work changes.
