HTC Gateway
The HTC Gateway provides a migration path to for legacy Hitachi IO and Drives into a Rockwell Logix platform (e.g. ControlLogix or CompactLogix) with minimal effort.
- Hitachi IO Master
- Hitachi IO Slave
- Hitachi Drive Module
- Scope Trace of Hitachi signal
- Supports Digital In, Digital Out, Analog In, and Analog Out
- Supports up to 127 slots
Overview
The HTC Gateway provides intelligent data routing between EtherNet/IP and legacy Hitachi IO and Drive (RIW/ROW) systems.
This allows the user to integrate legacy Hitachi IO and Drives into a Rockwell Logix platform (e.g. ControlLogix or CompactLogix) with minimal effort.
The module can be configured to act as either a legacy Hitachi IO Master (RIOH Master), legacy Hitachi IO Slave (RIOH Slave), or legacy Hitachi Drive module. Data can easily be accessed in the Logix input and output assemblies.
The HTC Gateway is configured using the Aparian Slate application. This program can be downloaded from www.aparian.com free of charge.
The module also provides a range of statistics to help fault find any problems. The Hitachi interface port uses a terminal block for convenient installation.
A built-in webserver provides detailed diagnostics of system configuration and operation, including the display of Hitachi interface operation and communication statistics, without the need for any additional software.
Application
Examples of a typical network setup:
HTC Gateway configured as IO Master to exchange data between legacy Hitachi IO and a ControlLogix controller
HTC Gateways to exchange data between legacy Hitachi drive and a ControlLogix controller
HTC Gateway configured as IO Slave to exchange data between legacy Hitachi IO and a ControlLogix controller
