Modules ease communication

March 20, 2006
PKM process coupling modules extend the communication possibilities between machine-vision systems and the process. Results from a system can be sent to all industrial bus systems with the module, allowing use of standard components that are independent of the particular bus system used.

PKM process coupling modules extend the communication possibilities between machine-vision systems and the process. Results from a system can be sent to all industrial bus systems with the module, allowing use of standard components that are independent of the particular bus system used. Interconnection of different modules in one device is possible. Control of the modules is via an Ethernet or RS-232 interface using the vicorem open-source remote-control protocol. Further hardware or software adjustment is unnecessary. The robust housing, DIN-rail mounting, and wide range of input voltages (9--36 Vdc), guarantee reliable installation in industrial surroundings.
