■ 3 decimal rotary coding switches

■ Protection class IP67

■ LEDs for display of supply voltage, group

and bus errors

■ Multiprotocol interface between the BL67

system and the Ethernet protocols Modbus

TCP, EtherNet/IP and PROFINET

■ PROFINET supports Fast Startup (FSU)

■ EtherNet/IP supports QuickConnect (QC)

■ Integrated switch 10/100 Mbps

■ Two 4-pin D-coded M12 female connectors

for fieldbus connection (from VN 03-00)

■ One 5-pin 7/8″ male connector for power

supply

Functional principle

BL67 gateways are the head component of

a BL67 station. They are designed to connect the modular fieldbus nodes to the higher-level fieldbus (PROFIBUS-DP, DeviceNet,

CANopen, Ethernet Modbus TCP, PROFINET

or EtherNet/IP).

All BL67 electronic modules communicate

over the internal module bus, the data of

which is transferred to the fieldbus via the

gateway. All I/O modules can thus be configured independently of the bus system.
