Large Synchronized Network Layout
When building a large local EBC (Ethernet Based Connectivity) network an
SC5000 Controller should be used together with a PWR-480B power supply unit.
In this case the SC5000 unit acts as the system master and is connected to the
host through one of its interfaces.
•
The SC5000 can be connected to the Host in several different layouts
depending on the controller model.
•
The SC5000 Standard models provide both Ethernet connections (direct or
through a Hub/Switch) and point-to-point connections on the Main inter-
face using either RS232 or RS422 full-duplex;
•
Fieldbus models, additionally provide the model specific Fieldbus: Profibus,
Profinet IO, etc.
•
All scanners act as slaves and are connected to the SC5000 through the EBC
interface.
External devices such as a presence sensor and an encoder are all connected
either to the SC5000 through its M12 circular connectors, or to the CBX510 con-
nection box (connected to the Controller), wiring the signals through the CBX510
compression connectors.
SC5000: Basic Layout: Ethernet TCP/IP To Host
(*)If you prefer an alternative wiring connection, rather than the M12 connection
type, use the CBX510 accessory, as shown below.
