Hilscher Launches Real-Time Ethernet IO-Link Device 'netFIELD'
Published2020.12.15 13:35Configure and diagnose IO-Link sensors with built-in OPC-UA server
On the 15th, Hilscher launched its "netFIELD devices," which provide device connectivity and IO-Link-level integration in harsh environments. Customers can choose from ready-to-use IP67 devices, including chipsets or pre-loaded modules for their own designs, optimized for brand labeling.
NetFIELD devices, featuring a built-in OPC-UA server, connect IO-Link sensors to demanding real-time Ethernet networks, either wired or wirelessly, and use IO-Link-supported profiles for configuration and diagnostics. The server handles functions such as firmware downloads, authentication, and IO-Link port configuration.
Hilscher has integrated the 'netIOL chip', an intelligent IO-Link transceiver with additional diagnostic functions for equipment fault detection such as voltage and current of each IO-Link pin, on-chip temperature, supply voltage, etc., into its existing 'netX90 technology platform'. For digital inputs, input filters are available that can be incrementally adjusted to 3, 15, or 20 ms.
Customers leveraging the netFIELD device technology platform have access to the full Hillshire ecosystem, including regular updates to pre-validated firmware, pre-certified protocol stacks, and optional workshop and software modification capabilities.
