Anybus Instructions
Anybus Gen IV Controller
From the main menu, select Controller.
Select Communication Interfaces. Select Anybus.
DeviceNet
DeviceNet is one of three open network standards (DeviceNet, ControlNet and
EtherNet/ IP), all of which use a common application layer, the “Common
Industrial Protocol” (CIP).
DeviceNet covers the main part of the applications where small to medium
amount of data with short to medium cycle times (1ms to 500ms) can be
exchanged in the network.
Node Address: Configures the Anybus node address for controller.
CC-Link CC-Link is a Fieldbus network that processes both cyclic I/O data
and acyclic parameter data at high speed.
CC-Link was developed by Mitsubishi and today, it is managed by the CC-Link
Partner Association (CLPA). CC-Link is a very popular network in Asia.
CC-Link is a Fieldbus for high-speed communication between controllers and
intelligent field devices like I/Os, sensors and actuators. In networks with
up to 65 stations.
Station Number: Configures the station number for the controller. Valid
entries are 1 – 64.
Baud: Configures the controllers baud rate. Configure it to match the CC-
Link network baud. Valid values are 156kbps, 625kbps, 2.5Mbps, 5Mbps, and
10Mbps.
CC-Link Version: Configures the controllers CC-Link version. Configure it
to match the attached network. Valid values are 1.0 or 2.0.
AcraDyne Gen IV Controller: Anybus Instructions
Profibus
PROFIBUS is the leading industrial communication system for manufacturing
automation in Europe with strong growth in many other markets. PROFIBUS is
supported by Siemens and is promoted by the PROFIBUS User Organization.
Profibus products are certified by the PROFIBUS User Organization (PNO),
guaranteeing worldwide compatibility.
The AcraDyne controller supports Profibus on the generic Anybus module. The
controller can accept messages from a Profibus Client and return responses to
the Client.
Node Address: Configures the Anybus node address for controller.
Profibus DP
Supported Features: The Anybus module supports the Profibus DP-V1
protocol. The DP-V1 is a communication protocol for acyclic data exchange and
alarm handling.
Profibus DP defines a network as masters and spindles based on their
functionality. The ACRADYNE controller is considered a spindle device with
inputs and outputs.
The Profibus Inputs and Outputs are addressed as:
- Input 1 byte – 8 bits
- Input 1 word – 16 bits
- Input 2 words – 32 bits
- Input 4 words – 64 bits (Currently not used)
- Output 1 byte – 8 bits
- Output 1 word – 16 bits
- Output 2 words – 32 bits
- Output 4 words – 64 bits (Currently not used)
Profinet
PROFINET is the innovative open standard for Industrial
Ethernet, development by Siemens and the Profibus User Organization (PNO).
PROFINET is based on Ethernet and uses TCP/ IP and IT standards and
complements them with specific protocols and mechanisms to archive a good
real-time performance. Device Name: Configures the device name of the
controller.
CC-Link IE Field
CC-Link IE Field network is the first gigabit industrial Ethernet network
extended down to the field device level. It combines the best of existing
technologies and applies them in a highly reliable architecture that provides
exceptional data bandwidth and transaction rates. The new network uses
commercially available Cat5E cable and RJ45
connectors.
Station Number: Configures the station number for the controller. Valid
entries are 1 – 64.
Network Number : Configures the network number the controller is on.
Valid entries are 0 – 239.
AcraDyne Gen IV Controller: Anybus Instructions
4.5.2.3 Anybus
These types of communication are useful for data communication between
controller and PLCs. It is an effective, quick way for the data transfer of
short data packages. Example of the Anybus Input screen with five Inputs set
up.
Click on to change an individual Element or return to Input Configuration
screen.
Will delete individual Elements.
Element Type: Choose from Byte, Int16, Int32, or ASCII.
Element: Shows element # being configured
Bit (not shown): Enter Bit #.
Bits: # of bits the assignment will read.
Start at: Starting bit location.
Polarity (not shown): Select Normally Open (N.O.) or Normally Closed Outputs
(N.C.).
Length (not shown, available in ASCII ID function): Number of characters
desired to send.
Torque (not shown, available in Click Wrench function): Torque value to
be reported when using Click Wrench input. Value input is what will be sent
from controller when Input Signal is received from a Click Wrench. Value is
NOT calculated by the controller rather it is solely what the Click Wrench is
calibrated to by outside means.
Torque Units (not shown, available with Click Wrench function): Choose from
Nm, Kgm, Kgcm, Ftlb, and Inlb.
Function: See the Gen IV Controller User Manual for more details. Select
desired Input Function(s).
Click on after appropriate selections are made.

4.5.2.4 Anybus Outputs
Example of the Anybus Output screen with five Outputs set up.
Click on to change an individual Element or return to Input Configuration
screen.
Will delete individual Elements.
Element Type: Choose from Byte, Int16, Int32, or ASCII.
Element: Shows element # being configured
Bit: Enter Bit #.
Bits (not shown): # of bits the assignment will read.
Start at: Starting bit location.
Polarity: Select Normally Open or Normally Closed Outputs.
Mode:
- Normal: Output signal sent.
- Timed Signal Sent: Time entered in seconds
- Flash Signal Sent: Time entered in seconds
Function: See the Gen IV Controller User Manual for more details. Select
desired Input Function(s).
Click on after appropriate selections are made.
