AS-Interface Master/Gateways

By using the ASi Gateways from Bihl+Wiedemann, you can transmit digital and analog data, that has been read remotely through ASi slaves, to the host controller, and send the output signals from the host controller to the actuators over the respective bus system.

In general, our Gateways communicate according to the ASi-3 standard, and therefore ensure optimal data exchange. The Gateways are easily and quickly installed and commissioned.The user benefits from a variety of included diagnostic functions such as duplicate address detection, ground protection, and EMC monitoring, as well as the functionality of an optional PLC.

 

Double Masters in one gateway are an especially cost-efficient approach. They allow controlling two ASi networks with a single Gateway. Additionally, the “1 Gateway, 1 power supply for 2 ASi networks” version requires only one power supply for both ASi networks.

In addition to the Gateways with Fieldbus and Ethernet interfaces as well as devices with USB ports, Bihl+Wiedemann also offers solutions providing all the common hardware and software interfaces for PC-assisted automation. We have the right ASi Master for each task.
