  • Page 39: Profinet Communication

    This chapter describes the use of the External Module option on the 5024G weighing termi- nal, which with a on RS485 externally connected communications module (2070 PROFINET) from Eilersen Electric can communicate with external controller/PLC using PROFINET. With the later stated software version installed in the external module the external commu- nication module can transfer 14 input bytes from the 5024G terminal to the PROFINET mas- ter, and transfer 14 output bytes from PROFINET master to the 5024G terminal.
