Description
A S7 adaptor for the direct access via USB
The ACCON-MPI-Adapter USB allows connecting a PC to the MPI interface of a S7 PLC via USB.
Perfect fields of application
- As programming adapter to create and change the PLC program.
- As communication adapter for visualizations
- As communication adapter for accessing the PLC’s data
Varied ranges of application
- Programming S7 PLCs with STEP 7
- Connecting visualizations with S7 PLCs
- Logging S7 data (e.g. with ACCON-S7-EasyLog)
Convincing and varied
The ACCON-MPI-Adapter USB uses the same communication protocol like the PC Adapter. Thus, the ACCON-MPI-Adapter USB can used with any software supporting the PC Adapter.
A software creating a virtual serial interface is included in delivery of the ACCON-MPI-Adapter USB. Any software supporting serial connections to the S7 PLC can therefore use the ACCON-MPI-Adapter USB.
Technical highlights
- Low-cost solution for programming and visualizing via USB
- MPI speed up to 187.5 Kbps
- Voltage supply via USB
- Virtual serial interface for flexible applications
