• Pluto Gateways For Network Connection. The gateways are devices for transfer of data in both directions between the Pluto bus and other fieldbuses. They are made in these versions; GATE-P1 for Profibus-DP ( ; 733-4836 733-4836 ), GATE-D1 for DeviceNet ( ; 733-4849 733-4849 ), GATE-C1 for CANopen ( ; 733-4830 733-4830 ), GATE-E1 for Ethernet using Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP (EIP) or PROFINET ( ; 733-4842 733-4842 ). A second usage for GATE-D1 and GATE-C1 is as a CAN-bridge (repeater) which transfers CAN telegrams between two CAN-buses. This can be useful when long cables are needed. With CANbridge the usage is not limited to any special protocol such as the Pluto CAN bus system, but it can be used for most CAN bus systems. All gateways from ABB are mounted on a 35 mm DIN rail 24 Vdc operating voltage The CAN bus and PROFIBUS are galvanic isolated from each other and from the 24 Vdc supply The bus connectors have terminals for connection of a cable shield
