ET-7251

Daisy-Chain Ethernet Cabling

The ET-7200/PET-7200 Series has a built-in two-port Ethernet switch to implement daisy-chain topology. The cabling is much easier and total costs of cable and switch are significantly reduced.

LAN Bypass

LAN Bypass feature guarantees the Ethernet communication. It will automatically active to continue the network traffic when the ET-7200/PET-7200 looses its power.

Communication Security

Account and password are needed when logging into the web server. An IP address filter is also included, which can be used to allow or deny connections with specific IP addresses.

Support for both Modbus TCP and Modbus UDP Protocols

The Modbus TCP, Modbus UDP slave function on the Ethernet port can be used to provide data to remote SCADA software.

Built-in I/O

Various I/O components are mixed with multiple channels in a single I/O module, which provides the most cost effective I/O usage and enhances performance of the I/O operations.

Dual Watchdog

The Dual Watchdog is consists of a Module Watchdog and a Communication Watchdog. The action of AO,DO are also associated to the Dual Watchdog.
Module Watchdog is a built-in hardware circuit to monitor the operation of the module and will reset the CPU if a failure occurs in the hardware or the software. Then the Power-on Value of AO,DO will be loaded.
Communication Watchdog is a software function to monitor the communication between the host and the I/O module. The timeout of the communication Watchdog is proprgrammable, when the I/O doesn't receive commands from the host for a while, the watchdog forces the AO,DO to pre-programmed Safe Value to prevent unpredicatable damage of the connected devices.

Power-on Value and Safe Value

Besides setting by the set AO,DO commands, the AO,DO can be set under two other conditions.
Power-on Value: The Power-on Value is loaded into the AO,DO under 3 conditions: Power-on, reset by Module Watchdog, reset by reset command.
Safe Value: When the Communication Watchdog is enabled and a Communication Watchdog timeout occurs, the “safe value” is loaded into the AO,DO.
