EtherNet/IP to CC-Link Local & Intelligent Station

5209-DFNT-CCLINK

Product Description

The ProSoft Technology EtherNet/IP to CC-Link communication gateway allows Rockwell Automation control platform users to integrate CC-Link Master compatible products with existing EtherNet/IP control networks.

The CC-Link protocol driver acts as a Local or Intelligent Station, which enables easy connection to the CC-Link Master-controlled network for data transfer. Configuration options allow the gateway to occupy up to four (4) stations on the CC-Link network. Transient Messaging capability increases overall I/O data transfer capacity by more than 8,000 words. When configured as a Local Station, the gateway allows read-only viewing of the entire CC-Link Master cyclic database from all configured slave on the CC-Link network.

Functional Specifications

Internal Database

The ProLinx module contains an internal database that consists of areas for application data, status information, and configuration information.

The internal database is shared between all ports on the module and is used as a conduit to pass information from a device on one network to one or more devices on another network.

Application Data Area

The data area is used to store and retrieve data by the protocol drivers and for data exchange between protocols. The database is used as a source for write commands to remote devices and holds data collected from the remote devices. Commands defined in the configuration file (stored in the configuration data area) control how the data is to be handled in the database.

Status Data Area

This area is used to store error codes, counters, and port status information for each port.

Configuration File

This file contains module configuration information such as port configuration, network information, and command configuration. This configuration file is downloaded to, or uploaded from, the module.

EtherNet/IP Protocol Specifications

The EtherNet/IP protocol is one of the primary connectivity tools to the different Rockwell Automation platforms. The Explicit Messaging aspect of the protocol (only) has been implemented in the ProLinx units to provide the data transfer link between the ProLinx units and the Rockwell Automation hardware. (Implicit Messaging (I/O communications) is not supported)

CC-Link Protocol Specifications

CC-Link (Control & Communication Link) is an open-standard-based communication protocol that enables easy connection to Mitsubishi and other Master PLCs.

  • CC-Link is one of the dominant protocols used in Asia and is rapidly gaining acceptance worldwide.
  • The ProLinx CC-Link interface is a slave (Local Station or Intelligent Device), which can be connected to a CC-Link Master that controls data transfer.
  • The gateway is a stand-alone, DIN-rail-mounted solution that provides one CC-Link network port with TE-CON7 4P connector and an Ethernet port with RJ45 connector

CC-Link Functional Specifications

CC-Link technology is based on an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) designed and provided by Mitsubishi Electric Automation.
