All the modules available in the categories
above are compatible with BEEP Technology
With the introduction of BEEP Technology: it allows a network of up to 33 devices (1 Master + 32 Slaves) or 480 bytes of
data to appear to the PLC as a single device on a single connection using a single IP
address. By reducing the number of connections the PLC sees, the user will be able
to create high density I/O networks and still utilize their low cost PLC.
This Technology is utilized by: making the first device in the line a BEEP master, which
can be done via the device webserver. The BEEP master can then scan the entire
network and create a new data map that includes all of the downstream devices,
with all device configuration options saved in the master.
BEEP Technology also supports: drop-in device replacement, reducing downtime and overall
expenses. If the network is setup using BEEP, a technician can simply replace a
slave device with a new device to keep the system online. The BEEP master will
automatically recognize the device, assign it an IP address, and download the
parameters to it.
Additionally, BEEP is compatible with all standard Ethernet components and does
not require special equipment
