Beckhoff Automation ej6002

The EJ6002 EtherCAT plug-in module enables the connection of devices with two RS232, RS485 or RS422 interfaces. Apart from the convenient selection of the communication standard (RS232, RS485 or RS422) using the TwinCAT software, various operation modes can be set for the termination of connection cables. The devices connected to the module communicate with the automation device via the coupler. The active communication channel operates independently of the higher-level EtherCAT system in full duplex mode with 300?baud up to 256?kbaud. The serial interfaces guarantee high immunity to interference through electrically isolated signals. In conjunction with the TwinCAT Virtual Serial COM Driver, the EJ6002 can be used as a normal Windows COM interface.
