UNIGATE® CX The flexible solution to connect incompatible networks The intelligent Gateway for: THE RESULT MUST AGREE – BUS-TECHNOLOGY MADE BY DEUTSCHMANN!

The intelligent Gateway for the connection of industrial networks - UNIGATE® CX The flexible solution to connect incompatible networks In the field of automatic control many different Fieldbuses and Industrial Ethernet became established worldwide. Again and again the task of interconnecting these incompatible networks comes up. The UNIGATE® CX-series was created exactly for that task. The series contains Fieldbus-Slave as well as Industrial Ethernet versions. The UNIGATE® CX is designed as DIN-rail module and contains the selected Fieldbuses or Ethernet in the mechanical variant carried...

Application example UNIGATE® CX connects different networks among each other, e. g. Ethernet/IP to ProfibusDP UNIGATE® CX design

UNIGATE® CANopen®(Master)-ProfibusDP(Slave) The UNIGATE® CANopen®-ProfibusDP module serves as a coupling between a CANopen® bus system and ProfibusDP to EN 50 170. In this application, it functions as a gateway and on the ProfibusDP-side it operates as slave and on the CANopen®-side it operates as master or slave. The data exchange between the Profibus and the CANopen® will be fixed with the Mapping which is configured via "WINGATE®". Mapping means the illustration of data of one fieldbus to any other fieldbus. As data all data can be used which are made available from the corresponding...

Configuration tool WINGATE The UNIGATE® CX-series can be configured with the comfortable configuration tool WINGATE. All models have the standard protocols 3964R and 3964, Modbus ASCII and Modbus RTU (Master- and Slave-operation possible) as well as a Universal 232-protocol for transparent data exchange available. The selection and configuration of the protocols is carried out via the WINGATE-software.

Following please find the explanation of some command groups on theleft side of the adjacent example window: Declarations Variable declaration FlowControl Subfunction calls, jumps, branches Math Mathematical functions, data conversions Communication Send and receive data Device control Set and read parameters. Exemplary the baud rate for the serial interface is mentioned here. Bus specific Here commands are placed that enter busspecific values. The amount of tasks, that can be processed with a Script is virtually unlimited. Scripts, that are conceivable: • automatically acquire data from...

Debugging The Debugger enables the control of a UNIGATE® Gateway that is in the Debug-mode. For convenient Debugging further functions, such as • Break point • Single-Step • Display of the variables and their values • Error indication are made available. That way also extensive Scripts can be checked quickly. Picture 4: Debug window with variables and their contents Support The PROTOCOL DEVELOPER has a context-sensitive help function, that provides an extensive description of each Script command. Templates for different tasks and bus versions can directly be taken over and adjusted to your...
