Communicate! Locally or remotely
Omron's CP1 series can communicate in open standardised
networks such as Ethernet, DeviceNet and Profibus-DP.
The CIF41 plug-in module means a compact and cost effective
10/100Mbit Ethernet interface for the CP1L or CP1H. Systems
can be monitored using a standard web browser, either via a
local network or over an Internet connection from anywhere in
the world. There is full access to process data, uploading and
downloading of programs and monitoring and fault tracing.
This is useful for machinery monitoring, transfer of data to
supervisory computers, or for performing remote diagnostics
on equipment installed at sites where no local technical
support is available. For example, solar panel tracking
stations.
For distances up to 500 meters the CIF12 provides an
optional extra serial connection for any of the CP1 PLCs. This
is particulary useful to create a dedicated data connection
between two places, for instance to a PLC on the factory
floor from an office area, or to make a connection between
buildings.
