Security switch
Even with sophisticated security measures, human error is still the main cause of security breaches. To simplify security, we added a physical
security switch on the Communicator. It locks your configuration and prevents any access to the web-based configuration interface. Just flip
it when your configuration is done and watch the padlock LED on the product light up.
Security chip and secure boot
To meet current and future security challenges, the Communicator is equipped with the latest Anybus security chip. Secure boot ensures the
firmware has not been tampered with.
Ethernet configuration port
With a dedicated Ethernet configuration port you don’t need any special configuration cable. In addition, it is easy to connect to the gateway
to monitor network traffic.
Optimized for DIN-rail mounting
The slim form factor, front facing network connectors, screw in serial cable connector and the neat cable tie ensure it is fast and simple to
install and connect the Communicator.
Diagnostics
When opening the Communicator web interface you immediately see the status of the PROFINET connection and serial connection. You can
even see the status of individual serial nodes. It’s also equipped with a serial log and an event log for further analysis.
Support
Sometimes you run into a problem where you need help. That’s why we have included a support page in the user interface with contact
information. There is even a button to generate a support package to simplify troubleshooting.
