Panasonic Ethernet
|
All relevant factory automation products communicate with each other via Ethernet. Main focus is the connection to the IT-world and the use of its advantages:
- uses existing networks, saves wiring
- reaches almost every point of the world via Internet
- standard software tools already existing on your PC
- remote control, monitoring and programming
The FP Web-Server brings together all the FP series controllers with Ethernet an all the possibilities of this new technology. In addition, for the FP2 / FP2SH series controllers, Panasonic provides high-end ET-LAN modules for particularly fast communication on the Ethernet network.
