Panasonic Industrial Devices Sales Company of America
The IO-Link technology makes it possible to continuously collect and process data and to control the HG-C1000L. This allows users to implement predictive maintenance and to monitor the operation in machines and assembly lines. Processing the multitude of data requires users to invest know-how and time. To reduce the workload for the customers, Panasonic has developed a self-diagnosis function specifically for this sensor. This function sends sensor data via IO-Link to a higher-level fieldbus, thus informing about the state of the sensor directly. This way, the amount of production data and the work needed to analyze the data is reduced.

DAQ Modules
Q.series X DAQ Modules for Ethernet, CAN and ProfiNet
-
All Q.series X DAQ systems possess the same measurement capabilities and performance, regardless of form factor. The main differentiating quality between the XL and XE versions of Q.series X is the Fieldbus communication protocol (Localbus or EtherCAT), which can be interchanged on Q.series X modules using a simple firmware update.
