The BridgeWay  PROFIBUS to DeviceNet Gateway (p/n AB7605) provides connectivity between a PROFIBUS-DP network and a DeviceNet network. This compact, DIN rail-mountable device solves a mission critical problem: connecting existing DeviceNet™ networks to Profibus DP-based PLCs and scanners. It’s the proven choice to monitor and control devices on a DeviceNet network from any Profibus-DP Master.

The gateway appears as a slave to a PROFIBUS-DP Master, allowing the PROFIBUS-DP Master to read or write data from up to 63 DeviceNet Slave devices. The DeviceNet side of the gateway is a full DeviceNet Master and I/O Scanner complete with the Automatic Device Replacement (ADR) feature. ADR allows the gateway to automatically restore configuration data to a device, once a failed device has been replaced on the DeviceNet network. As a result, it can eliminate the additional cost of PLC-based DeviceNet scanners, while adding the benefit of connectivity to your DeviceNet networks throughout the plant.

Configuration of the gateway is simple using Rockwell Software’s RSNetWorx™ for DeviceNet or NetTool-DN-D (NetTool is available from Pyramid Solutions). Configuration consists of defining the devices on your DeviceNet network and the resulting input/output data that will be mapped into  PROFIBUS-DP I/O data.
