SICK AFS/AFM60 EtherNet/IP absolute encoder with integrated web server
SICK has integrated a web server into the AFS/AFM60 EtherNet/IP absolute encoder. With the embedded programming tool, the absolute encoder is ready for operation immediately without the need for additional software, enabling it to be used either with a browser-enabled device combined with a controller or without a controller.
As well as opening the door to sensor data — such as precise angle, speed and position detection — visualised communication via web server provides insights into the application by virtually mirroring plant conditions and requirements. With a range of integrated diagnostic functions (minimum and maximum values for position, speed, temperature, operating hours counter, motion counter, display of flags, alarm and warning messages), downtime can be reduced and material costs cut.
Visualising all encoder features and diagnostic functions on one screen enables the user to modify parameters quickly and easily, to output data values to the controller and to display diagnostic data in graphic format.
Websites are displayed in cleartext with decimal values and diagnostic data is displayed in graphs.
Users can choose one of three ways to use the encoder. It can be operated in the conventional way via the controller, with the web server being used exclusively as and when required for monitoring and diagnostic purposes. The web server or the integrated programming tool can be used solely to configure the encoder in advance, prior to its implementation in the plant. Or the controller and the web server can be used at the same time.
