What is it?
The Allen-Bradley 20-COMM-M Communication Adapter Series A is essentially a translator that allows different industrial devices to communicate with each other. Specifically, it connects Allen-Bradley drives to standard Ethernet networks using the Modbus TCP protocol.
How does it work?
- DPI Interface: It plugs into the Drive Peripheral Interface (DPI) port on your Allen-Bradley drive. This is the drive’s way of connecting to external devices.
- Modbus TCP: On the other end, it provides a standard Ethernet connection using the Modbus TCP protocol. This is a widely understood language for industrial devices, making it easy to integrate with other systems.
Why is it useful?
- Data Access: It lets you access drive data from a computer or other devices on your network.
- Remote Monitoring: You can monitor and control your drives from a distance.
- Integration: It allows seamless integration of your drive system with other industrial automation components.
- Flexibility: It offers flexibility in how you configure and use your drive system.
