12. scanCONTROL Gateway
scanCONTROL Gateway allows for scanCONTROL SMART sensors to be integrated
into various fieldbus systems:
- Profinet
- Ethernet IP
- EtherCat
All measurement results obtained from the profile evaluation carried out of a
scanCONTROL SMART sensor can be transmitted to a PLC via one of these fieldbus
systems. Furthermore, all scanCONTROL sensor settings can be set via scanCON-
TROL Gateway (e. g. Laser on/off or switch User Mode).

The scanCONTROL Gateway can connect up to four scanCONTROL SMART sensors
to the fieldbus. The transmission rate of measurement values is up to 500 Hz.
