What does this module do within an automation system?
This unit is a gateway module for the Flexi Soft range, designed to provide DeviceNet communication within a control architecture. It is used where a Flexi Soft system needs to exchange data over a DeviceNet network.
Which network does this gateway communicate over?
The module communicates via DeviceNet. It is intended for applications where DeviceNet is the required industrial network interface.
Is this module intended for use with the Flexi Soft platform?
Yes. This model belongs to the Flexi Soft family and is designed as a gateway option for that platform. In practice, 1044077 is selected when DeviceNet connectivity is needed as part of a Flexi Soft arrangement.
How is the module powered?
The module is powered via FLEXBUS+, so it does not require a separate external power feed for its own operation in the way a standalone unit might.
What is the data transmission rate?
The stated data transmission rate is up to 500 kbit/s. Actual network performance can depend on the overall installation and cable length.
What type of network connection does the module use?
It uses one 5-pole female open-style connector for the DeviceNet connection.
What are the electrical characteristics of this gateway?
The module has protection class III in accordance with EN 61140, and its internal power consumption is specified as up to 1.6 W.
What are the physical dimensions and weight of the unit?
The housing measures 22.5 mm x 96.5 mm x 131 mm and the weight is approximately 150 g, with a stated tolerance of ±10%.
What environmental conditions is the module designed for?
The unit has an IP20 protection rating in accordance with EN 60529. Its operating ambient temperature range is -25 °C to +55 °C, storage temperature range is -25 °C to +70 °C, and permissible air humidity is up to 95% non-condensing.
