IT in Manufacturing
The eWON 2101CD and 4101CD have been designed for system integrators in utilities/infrastructure projects, machine builders and other OEMs. They offer full Internet access to remote PLCs or automation devices through a serial or Ethernet port. Seamlessly integrated with many PLC programming environments, the routers are the perfect platform to collect data into internal tags, generate alarm notifications and buffer data into files. They also feature tunnelling functions for regular or permanent Internet connection.
The eWON 2101CD and 4101CD have a built-in Web server for configuration/HMI purposes and FTP functionalities for remote download/upload of data and configuration files. They are Talk2M ready. Machine builders and OEMs, like system integrators, will use Talk2M to take full advantage of broadband or mobile Internet to connect remotely to machines and installations around the world. As simple as a mouse click, this web connectivity service is secured by VPN and provides reliable communication at a reasonable cost.
