Process Automation Control Systems

Network Interface Modules

Network Interface Modules allow a VersaMax PLC to operate as a master or slave on a network.
Modules currently available support DeviceNet master or slave communications and PROFIBUS-DP
slave communications. An AS-i master communications is also available.
