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 ¡V only 1.0¡¨h x 6.3¡¨w
x 5.1¡¨d. Two mounting brackets enable these modules to be mounted
almost anywhere
¡V on a wall, ceiling, table top or under a counter. This enables
it to be used in a variety of applications ¡V on a production line,
in
a restaurant¡¦s kitchen system, etc. ¡V despite severe space constraints.
