Process data traffic overview


The Communicator enables communication, between a N/A and a U3000 host computer.

The Communicator main task is to translate between U3000 host commands on the serial network and explicit messages on the EtherNet/IP network.

This makes it possible to replace an N/A with a N/A, while keeping the Ultra 3000 host computer.
