Core functions

High speed data processing: Using high-performance processors, it can achieve sub millisecond packet processing latency, ensuring fast transmission and processing of real-time data.

Multi protocol conversion: Supports running multiple industrial protocols simultaneously, enabling seamless conversion between different protocols, such as converting Modbus TCP to Profinet IO.

Redundant communication: Supports network redundancy protocols (such as MRP, PRP, HSR) to ensure high availability of communication links. When the main link fails, the backup link can quickly take over communication.

Network security protection: Built in firewall function, supports access control list (ACL), can effectively prevent illegal network access, and protect industrial network security.

Remote management: supports remote configuration and monitoring through web interface, SNMP or dedicated management software, facilitating system maintenance and troubleshooting.

Working principle

The INNP012 module achieves network connection between devices through a built-in multi port switch. The processor parses the received data packets and performs data conversion and forwarding according to the configured protocol rules. The module adopts a microkernel architecture, which separates the protocol stack from the operating system, improving the stability and reliability of the system. In redundant communication mode, the module will monitor the network status in real time. When a main link fault is detected, it will automatically switch to the backup link to ensure uninterrupted communication.

Key advantages

High reliability: Industrial grade design, suitable for harsh environments, with an average time between failures (MTBF) of ≥ 50000 hours.

Excellent performance: High performance processors and optimized software architecture ensure low latency and high throughput for data processing.

Flexible configuration: Supports multiple protocol and interface combinations, and can be customized according to actual application needs.

Security guarantee: A multi-level network security protection mechanism effectively resists network attacks and ensures the security of industrial systems.

Easy to integrate: Provides rich APIs and development tools for easy integration with third-party systems.

 Precautions

Installation environment: The installation location should ensure good ventilation, avoid direct sunlight and strong electromagnetic field interference.

Power requirements: A power supply that meets the specifications must be used, and it is recommended to use redundant power supplies to improve reliability.

Network configuration: When configuring network parameters, it is necessary to ensure that the IP address, subnet mask, and other information are compatible with the existing network.

Firmware upgrade: Before upgrading the firmware, it is necessary to backup the configuration data and perform it during non production hours to avoid affecting normal production.

Heat dissipation maintenance: Regularly check whether the module's heat dissipation holes are blocked to ensure good heat dissipation.
