cess their complete protocol by software. The script itself can be generated by the company
Deutschmann Automation or with the software Protocol Developer by yourself. For a detailed

Basic line of proceeding

In theory it is enough to replace the RS232-driver that is included in your application by the UNI-
GATE® IC.

Your device, which on the whole is supposed to be assembled as shown above, will now be mod-
ified in a way that the DeviceNet is available at the 5-pol. socket. However, a hardware redesign
is necessary in order to keep the assignment in standard form.
After the RS232-driver has been replaced by the UNIGATE® IC, the DeviceNet is available at the
5-pol. screw-plug connector.
Deutschmann Automation is also offering an appropriate adapter board. With it existing devices
can be adapted without re-design; see chapter 13 on page 33.
