SINAMICS in the automation environment
Depending on the application, the appropriate converter can be selected and incorporated in
the automation concept. With this in mind, the converters are clearly subdivided into their
different applications. A wide range of communication options (depending on the drive type)
are available for establishing a communication link to the automation system:
● PROFINET
● EtherNet/IP
● PROFIBUS
● AS-interface
● USS
● CANopen
● Modbus RTU
● BacNet MS/TP
