DETAILED DESCRIPTION

EtherNet/IP

TB20 ToolBox can be used to easily configure the system and the various module parameters and transfer the corresponding settings to the coupler.
A functioning TB20 configuration will always require a bus coupler and at least one peripheral module. The bus coupler supports hot-swapping for replacing modules during operation.

• Modules can be replaced during operation (hot-swapping)
• 24 V DC power supply 
• Integrated power supply unit for powering peripheral modules (2.5 A) 
• Supplies the system’s I/O voltage (24 VDC) 
• USB device port for online diagnostics, configuring parameters, setup, and firmware updates with "TB20 ToolBox"
• TB20 ToolBox simulation for commissioning the I/O system without a higher-level controller in order to test the functionality (I/O check)
• Concealed "factory reset" switch for restoring the module to its factory settings
• Supports unicast and multicast 
• CIP connections
• 511 bytes of input assembly data, 511 bytes of output assembly data
• TB20 ToolBox can be used for easy access to assembly sizes and to the structure of the memory image within the assemblies
• Up to 64 peripheral modules
• Implicit messaging (transport class 1)
• Explicit messaging (transport class 3)
• TCP watchdog
• IP address can be set relative to a base IP address by using a DIP switch that can be covered
• DHCP (can be selected using DIP switch)
• Integrated 2-port switch with 2 x RJ45 connectors
• Module process data is automatically assigned to the EtherNet/IP mapping
