Latest Anybus CompactCom enables automation devices to communicate on CC-Link IE field.

 

CompactCom is designed to be embedded into a host automation device to enable fast communication with
any industrial network. Designing in the Anybus CompactCom into an automation device is quick due to
the accompanying example driver code and configuration file (CSP+) provided by HMS.

 

Designed for slave communication on CC-Link IE Field networks, Anybus CompactCom can handle up to
1,536 bytes of process data in each direction making it suitable for most slave devices. The module supports
generic device profiles and comes with a dual port switch implemented in a network processor — Anybus NP40

CC-Link IE Field connectivity comes in two formats:
• Module format, which enables instant connectivity for existing CompactCom users by simply plugging in
the CC-Link IE Field module
• Brick format, ideal for users who have limited space or want to add their own choice of network connectors
