Irinos Measurement System
➔ Connector type: M12 4-pin female, D-coded
The Ethernet interface of the Irinos-System is a standard type, like it is for example available in standard PCs. Data rates of 10 Mbit/s and 100 Mbit/s are supported. Hence the Irinos-System can be connected to any typical network interface.
It has an integrated "crossover-detection". Therefore it does not matter, whether a standard cable or a crossed cable is used.

Connection cable
Connection cables are available from different manufacturers (e.g. PhönixContact, Lapp, Murr Elektronik). The connection cable must be of cat 5e or better. Cables from Phönix Contact are supporting the "SpeedConn"-locking for faster (un)plugging of the cable.

The ethernet interface is electrically identical to realtime interfaces like ProfiNet, EtherCat or Sercos. However, it does neither support the extensions of these nor the respective protocols. |
Ethernet-Status / LEDs
The ethernet status is signalled via the LED "Ethernet Link".
