Intended use

The expansion module PNOZ mc4p is used for communication between the configurable
safety system and DeviceNet.
DeviceNet is designed for fast data exchange at field level. The expansion module PNOZ
mc4p is a passive DeviceNet subscriber (Slave). The basic communication functions with
DeviceNet meet the requirements of the DeviceNet specification, Release 2.0. The central
controller (master) reads input information from the slaves and writes output information to
the slaves as part of each cycle. As well as the cyclical transfer of usable data, the expan-
sion module PNOZ mc4p can also be used for diagnostic and commissioning functions.
Data traffic is monitored on the Master/Slave side.
The expansion module may only be connected to a base unit from the configurable system
PNOZmulti (please refer to the document "PNOZmulti System Expansion" for details of the
base units that can be connected).
The configurable system PNOZmulti is used for the safety-related interruption of safety cir-
cuits and is designed for use in:
Emergency stop equipment
