Profile
GILOGIK II is a high performance distributed I/0 system.
It is arranged into modules that plugin to a dedicated back-plane.
The heart of the system is made up of modular gateways or nodes, which are designed to on the one hand control the installed I/O modules through theback-plane, while on the other hand to communicate with the command and control centre.
The modern architecture, based on a 200Mhz ARM processor and parallel back-plane, give excellent performance to the system equipped with GDnet, the specific TCP/IP Ethernet network developed by Gefran: I/O system data is refreshed in 100 us, is synchronised and specific with virtually 0 (zero) jitter.
The creation of dedicated Ethernet Switches allows consistent uniform performance, even with multiple nodes, up to a maximum of 16 nodes with 256I/O per node.
The features and performance of the gateways dedicated to the most common field busses such as CAN, CANopen, DeviceNet and Profibus, are them selves top notch.
The back-planes are available in 4, 8, 12 and 18 slot versions, permitting the user to stream line his system in terms of both efficiency and cost.
The organisation of the back-planes is of geographical type, where each module may be inserted into any slot, not necessarily adjoining the last one.
The system can there fore be set up leaving open slots for potential later expansion, or simply for better organisation of the system with out affecting its operation.
The unit may be easily installed on either a standard 35mm omega bar or directly on to a base plate.
The modules are connected to the back-plane by click connectors without the need for screws, thus automatically making the electrical connections required for the operation of the unit.
GILOGIK II is equipped with digital and analogue I/O modules, temperature control modules and counter modules, thus enabling the creation of most automation and control applications.
The remote ness of the modules from the field makes them absolutely immune from disturbances, there by endowing the entire system with a high level of reliability.
GILOGIK II modules are entirely programmable via software, thus eliminating possible errors during there placement or maintenance of system parts.
The user connections are achieved using removable female connectors with spring clips.
This allows for quick, simple replacement of the modules without having to touch the cabling.
The absence of screws is another simplification in the management of the cabling, improving the reliability of the whole unit.
The entire GILOGIK II system runs on24Vdc, max 3A, fed directly from the gateway module.
The user interfaces for eseen for the GILOGIK II system are the GT-C and GT-O+GF-BOX.
