Networks
 


Communication is the key

From simple stand alone systems and basic AS-Interface networks to Ethernet based networks and even Global networks based on Remote Telemetry Technology, Mitsubishi has the answers.

  • Simple installation and fast data exchange
  • Selection of a variety of communi- cations media
  • Uncompromising implementation of the CIM philosophy
  • Support for open systems such as MAP, Profibus and AS Interface in addition to Mitsubishi networks
  • Centralised programming and process data logging via ETHERNET TCP/IP and MELSECNET
  • Redundant transmission media (MELSECNET, MELSECNET/10/H)
  • Realisation of decentralized structures
  • Decentralized solutions for the control and I/O level (CC-Link, DeviceNet, PROFIBUS/DP and AS-Interface)
  • Sensor/actor connections by AS-Interface
  • Manufacturer independent (PROFIBUS FMS/DP, AS Interface, CC-Link)
  • Programming and setting with MELSOFT

Here is an overview of some of the networks Mitsubishi provides:

  • Ethernet
  • CC-Link
  • Profibus
  • DeviceNet
  • AS-Interface
  • MELSECNET/H
  • MODBUS
  • CANopen
  • SSCNET
