ASi/ASi Couplers – For easy and flexible data exchange between two controllers

ASi/ASi couplers from Bihl+Wiedemann are the ideal solution for exchanging ASi data between two controllers , for example to report operating conditions. Depending on the requirement between 4 and 248 bits can be sent bi-directionally. Transmission over the robust ASi network means taking advantage of all the AS-Interface benefits.

Data exchange using slip rings

ASi by definition requires no shielding and is therefore ideal combined with the ASi/ASi coupler for data exchange between different controllers using slip rings.
