Description
The Emerson Hilscher netTAP NT 100 Protocol Converter is the protocol converter for sophisticated conversions and supports 2- port Real-Time Ethernet to serial, Fieldbus to Fieldbus, Real-Time Ethernet to Fieldbus and Real-Time Ethernet to Ethernet automation protocols. It supports slave and master functionality in any combination. Master functionality is unrestricted when licensed.
A memory card slot allows the user to save firmware and configuration data on a removable card. In case of failure all that is necessary to bring the plant back on line within I/O protocol gateway for demanding conversions seconds is to move the memory card from the old netTAP 100 onto a spare unit.
Apart from standard protocols, netTAP 100 supports the creation of serial protocols with the Lua-based scripting language netSCRIPT. A full featured development environment is included within the delivery. It allows the comfortable and rapid programming of any proprietary serial protocol as well as the I/O data pre-processing during the conversion into the other field protocol.
