IO756: EtherNet/IP Adapter I/O Module 

Configurable EtherNet/IP Adapter I/O module and Simulink® driver blocks

The IO756 I/O module is an EtherNet/IP module to connect real-time target machines to external devices. 

The IO756 handles the complete data exchange between the connected EtherNet/IP Scanner and the real-time application. The data exchange is processed via a dual-port memory. The module acts as one EtherNet/IP Adapter exclusively. 

This I/O module is ideal for rapid control prototyping of devices in industrial automation plants such as motor controllers, sensors, I/O stations, and robots. Furthermmore, the IO756 can be used to perform hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulations for PLC testing, virtual commissioning, and factory acceptance tests using MATLAB® and Simulink®.

The IO756 I/O module is fully compatible with the Simulink® Real-Time™ workflow. The extensive Simulink® Real-Time™ driver blockset offers comprehensive functionality, and firmware updates are easily available, as the Setup driver block downloads microcontroller firmware each time a target application is initialized.

Key Features

  • 2x 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX isolated, auto-crossover function Ethernet connectors enable easy network integration
  • Cyclic data exchange of up to 504 bytes with Scanner devices via the EtherNet/IP protocol
  • Simulates EtherNet/IP Adapters from certain vendors
  • DMA enables fast data exchange on PCI bus
