A translator between an industrial device and the CC-Link IE Field Network The Anybus-S CC-Link IE Field Module is a slave module for the CC-Link IE Field fieldbus system. It contains the functionality needed to turn an industrial device into a CC-Link IE Field intelligent device station, and it can be customized to appear as a vendor-specific CC-link IE implementation rather than a generic Anybus-S module. The CC-Link IE Field Network, is used for collecting manufacturing information, maintaining data, and for diagnostic data. The Anybus-S CC-Link IE module supports the CC-Link IE Field Network. CC-Link IE enables seamless data communication from the plant-level enterprise network to the production floor network. This integrated industrial network philosophy also provides cost reduction for the total system engineering task from system start-up, operation, and maintenance. In addition to control data transmission, it enables information processing for maintenance and diagnostics to provide improved collaboration and productivity.
