Cost Effective
Logic NetR modules can replace costly PC workstations, network hubs
and network software. To add more stations, simply increase the number
of LS3000 module connected to one LM3000 control modules. No special
interface cards or additional hardware is required between the LS3000
I/O stations and a multitude of peripheral devices.
Reliable and Rugged
The LM3000 control module was designed to meet the most demanding requirements
of an industrial network. There are no disk drives, fans or mechanical
parts that can easily fail. The enclosure is a heavy-duty zinc die cast
case for extra ruggedness. Every module uses snap-to-lock connectors
for secure connections. The LM3000 communicates with LS3000 I/O stations
using communications protocols and topologies with proven reliability.
It features high common-mode noise rejection network wiring. The poll/select
protocol functionality avoids data collision, and the cyclic redundant
checks virtually eliminate all communication errors. A zero single-point-of-failure
configuration is also supported. LM3000 connections provide for a redundant
data path to prevent network interruption due to a line breakage. The
LM3000 has low power consumption that results in low internal temperature
rise for higher mean time between failure. In addition, the units are
tamper proof, with no on/off or selection switches and no adjustable
devices.
Ultra Compact
The LM3000 has a very compact form factor – only 1.0”h x 6.3”w x
5.1”d. Two mounting brackets enable these modules to be mounted
almost anywhere
– on a wall, ceiling, table top or under a counter. This enables it
to be used in a variety of applications – on a production line,
in a
restaurant’s kitchen system, etc. – despite severe space constraints.
