M2M-Ethernet

Machine-to-machine, or M2M for short, involves direct communication between two or more modules. With our BS-WEU series, this communication can be
be carried out via Ethernet. Analog or digital data can be sent channel by channel from a source module via Ethernet to channels of one or more target modules.
Up to 8 M2M jobs can be set.
Please note that the source module must have the M2M function, but all DEDITEC Ethernet modules can receive data from an M2M module.
M2M configuration settings can be made in the ICT tool.

M2M-Destination

You can set the network settings of the target module here.
The following settings can be made:

  • Name of the target module

M2M – Jobs

Here you can set which operations are to be carried out on the target module.
The following settings can be made:

  • Type of task (digital, analog)
  • Which target module should be used
  • The interval with which the operations are to be performed
  • Start Channel number of the source module
  • Number of channels to be transmitted
  • Start Channel number of the target module

In the image on the right, DI data is sent every 100ms from channel 3(CH Start) to channel 8 ((CH Start) + (CH Count)) to channels 0-5 of the target module
