Product Description:
From the FC Lightbus Card Series, it is a dual-channel Lightbus card in the form of Beckhoff FC2002.4 / FC 2002 PC-bus card. PCI Interface to Lightbus s appreciated. This card allows two and half Mbaud data transfer within twenty-five microsecond intervals of processing thirty-two bits of data, hence suitable for real time industrial automation applications. It has 4 standard optical fiber connector ports, Compatible with Z1000 plastic fiber and Z 1010 HCS Fiber. This guarantees communication over long distances in an industrial environment without interference or degradation.
The FC2002.4 provides total hardware monitoring, employing 3 LEDs in each channel, to indicate/detect the communication status for faster problem resolution. The card is also capable of initiating up to 2 PC hardware interrupts supporting card improvement for timely operations.
One of the most attractive features of the FC2002.4, on the other hand, is the effectiveness with which it can handle cycle times of more than or less than100 µsec when there is need for high speed synchronous communication. It is possible to run the card in free running and in synchronized modes which will depend on the requirements of the application. The use of powerful parameter and diagnostics interfaces (ADS) also contributes to the increased ease of use as accurate control and troubleshooting are performed. This card is fully supported by the TwinCAT I/O software that has configuration tools for different versions of Windows OS. This card can also be used in high level programming languages through DLLs and ActiveX which further eases the use of the card in applications written in Visual Basic. There are also applications with an OPC interface that can work with the card through an OPC server hence wider compatibility of the card with other automation systems.
