3.2 Communication Overview

3.2 Communication Overview
Each NXGPro+ Control System has two communication connectors that enable network
communication through a variety of communication protocols. The system supports up to two
networks.
Connectivity for network protocols is possible with optional controller cards, called Anybus™
modules, which plug into the field bus communication card.
Anybus™ modules are available from Siemens and support the following protocols:
• Modbus™ Communication
• Modbus™ Ethernet
• Ethernet /IP
• Profibus™
• DeviceNet™ (Profile 12)
• ControlNet™
Note
Display the type of Anybus™ modules installed in the system using parameter 'Network Module
Type' (9955).
This information may be needed to verify you have the correct module for the network interface
to be implemented.
The following figure shows the NXGPro+ Control and includes the locations of the connectors for
the Anybus™ modules (network 1 and 2).
