A free firmware update makes Turck's TBEN-L and TBEN-S modules fit for CC-Link IE Field Basic
Ethernet Multiprotocol Now Also with CC-Link
10/24 – Turck is extending the multiprotocol capabilities of its TBEN-S and TBEN-L block I/O module series with the addition of CC-Link IE Field Basic, thus combining the world's most important Ethernet protocols in a single solution
Turck's multiprotocol Ethernet technology now also supports CC-Link IE Field Basic. Devices with this standard operate in networks with Profinet, Ethernet/IP, Modbus TCP or CC-Link IE Field Basic without the need for manual adaption. The extension can be activated through a simple firmware update and is initially available for the TBEN-S and TBEN-L IP67 block I/O series.
The update now also allows users in Asia to benefit from the flexibility of the Turck multiprotocol technology. In Japan in particular, but also in China, India, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand, CC-Link has a market share of up to 40 percent. Globally active machine builders and OEMs no longer need to stock separate I/O modules for CC-Link, thus reducing the complexity of procurement and logistics and therefore also costs.
