for seamless automation solutions

Optimising industrial networking

Advanced Industrial Automation

DeviceNet is an innovative industrial network system that enables a wide range of devices to be

easily networked and managed remotely. Everything - from PLCs and remote I/O,

to fibre optic sensors, vision systems controllers, servos and inverters - can be seamlessly

integrated into DeviceNet, making it one of the best industrial field busses around.

And the trend is for DeviceNet to become even more popular with end-users

and OEMs who look for a simple yet effective solution to controlling their automation

processes, no matter how complex.

Industrial network for total solutions

As a founding member of DeviceNet, Omron is one of the few companies

that integrates DeviceNet interfaces into its many core products.

Omron is also the first company to introduce wireless communications

to the DeviceNet system. And Omron has developed a user-friendly

software package that helps you configure all DeviceNet products

for optimum performance. With such an unrivalled product portfolio

and DeviceNet enhancing capability, Omron is the logical choice

for anyone wishing to optimise their automation system.

Remote I/O

Omron’s latest remote I/Os have automatic baud rate recognition, which is
unique in DeviceNet. They can be used asplug & play slaves, or fully configured
to suit the application. Omron’s DRT2 series feature integrated preventive
maintenance functions. These smart slavesmonitor and log the power supply,
operating time, the number of I/O operations, output-to-input delay times, and
can signal when maintenance isdue.

PLC masters and slaves

When it comes to PLCs, Omron’s reputation for
quality, reliability and advanced technology is
unsurpassed. Omron’s CJ1 offers the best
size/performance ratio in the industry. Like all
current Omron PLCs, CJ1 has a DeviceNet interface.
It can be used as master, slave, or both atthe same
time. Omron’s CPM2C micro PLC with integrated
DeviceNet slave interface allows truly seamless
distributed control. Even PLCprogramming and
monitoring can be done through DeviceNet.

DeviceNet and Omron – the benefits

Traditional industrial automation systems require a matrix of multi-core cables,

cable supports, junction boxes, control cabinets and data cables. A DeviceNet

network simplifies wiring by using just a dual twisted pair cable to provide both

power and data. This saves on wiring costs and the time needed for materials

installation. What’s more, Omron can supply every product you’ll ever need on

DeviceNet to optimise your industrial automation system.
