Certified Programmable Designed & manufactured in Germany ETHERNET TCP/IP INTEGRATE WITH LITTLE DEVELOPMENT EFFORT Protocol Converter Embedded Solutions

Ready-to-install UNIGATE® IC – Integrate without much development effort The UNIGATE® IC is a ready to install fieldbus- respectively industrial Ethernet node in DIL 32 design. The enormous reduction of the development effort up to 70-80% holds a significant advantage in time-to-market. The hardware development is reduced to the integration of the IC-socket and bus specific connectors. Covering an area of only 45 x 25 mm, the module includes all necessary components such as microcontroller, Flash, RAM, Ethernet switches or fieldbus ASIC as well as octocoupler and bus driver. It can be connected to...

I del Deutschmann your ticket to all buses Use The Deutschmann UNIGATE® IC is extremely well suited for the use with terminal devices out of the automation technology. It does not matter whether it is a complex control or a simple actuator or sensor. Even control components - outside the classical automation technology - can be connected to the fieldbus world or Ethernet based buses with the UNIGATE® IC. Fieldbus Connector Application example Script Programming with Protocol Developer Example of a customized board. This board can be fitted for different field-buses. Features The Deutschmann UNIGATE®...

Hardware overview Stand-alone operation The connection to terminal devices without a processor can be done via the clocked shift-register interface (synchronous serial interface / SPI). It allows the extension of the IC for digital and analog inputs and outputs through the port of shift registers, DA- or AD-converters. This way LEDs can be accessed, switch positions queried or analog signals read-in or read-out. The maximum input and output register width is each 256 bits. Processor-connection For the use in systems with its own microprocessor, the UNIGATE® IC is connected via a UART interface...

UNIGATE® IC2 New series UNIGATE® IC2 UNIGATE® IC2 Cortex-M4-Controller Script execution time reduced by a factor of 50 to 80 UNIGATE® IC2 - The fast one The new embedded series UNIGATE® IC2 is equipped with a Cortex-M4 controller and achieves much higher transfer rates for communication via SPI or UART. The script execution time decreases by a factor of 50-80, depending on the commands used. As a result, the UNIGATE® IC2 are able to process even large scripts very quickly. With simple scripts, execution times in the microsecond range are possible. The SPI bus achieves a transfer rate of 12 Mbit/s...

Protocol Developer Deutschmann Script language The heart of the Deutschmann UNIGATE® / Gateway series  Flexible solutions are needed. With the usual configuration tools for protocol converters and gateways, the user has to work with the specifications of the manufacturer. To change this unfortunate condition Deutschmann developed its own script language as early as in 1999.  The user only needs to process the data of the bus and barely has to look after the special characteristics of the fieldbus.  The Protocol Developer supports a variety of functions to fit the received or to send data into...

The amount of tasks which can be handled with a script is infinite. Scripts are imaginable which ▼ automatically determine a participants data at the serial interface, edit this data and then outline it in the bus ▼ only carry out action if the bus data is altered ▼ carry out timed actions ▼ share communication states ▼ exchange the data between 2 serial participants (RS485) and present the state in the bus Picture one shows you an example script in the editor surface and the tree view of all available commands (Command-Tree). It is the tool for easy script generating for our script gateways,...

Protocol Developer Compile Before a script can be loaded into a UNIGATE®, it has to be compiled. The resulting code is very storage efficient. So even extensive a script fits comfortably in the internal memory of the UNIGATE®. The loading of a script into the device can be done directly from the Protocol Developer. For serial programming a script-download tool is available. Debuggen All UNIGATE® devices have a built-in debugging interface. A special debug software is not needed. To test even extensive scripts quickly you’ll find many functions for comfortable debugging, such as ^ Breakpoints...

Support The Protocol Developer contains a context-sensitive help function, in which a detailed description of all script commands is included. Templates for different tasks and bus variants can be transferred directly and adapted to your own needs.

kal Deutschmann your ticket to all buses The developer board was developed to ensure the quick implementation of the Deutschmann All-In-One bus node UNIGATE® IC into your own electronics. The unified interface supports all UNIGATE® IC models. The required operating voltage (depending on the IC design either 5 volts or 3.3 volts) is adjustable. For the connection to a PC (with the DEBUG interface) there is both, an RS232 port and a USB port available. The application can be connected either via RS232, RS485, RS422, or USB. To test the respective bus side, bus connections according the norm or...
