ABB PS5613-EIP-S-e: EIP Scanner license eCo, AC500-eCo V3 Ethernet/IP Scanner onboard, single activation key

Why Choose the ABB PS5613-EIP-S-e AC500-eCo V3 EtherNet/IP Scanner Runtime Licence?

The ABB PS5613-EIP-S-e is an EtherNet/IP scanner runtime licence for ABB AC500-eCo V3 PLCs. It enables a compatible AC500-eCo processor to operate as an EtherNet/IP scanner using its onboard Ethernet interface, allowing the PLC to establish communications and exchange application data with compatible EtherNet/IP adapter devices.

Designed specifically for the compact AC500-eCo V3 platform, PS5613-EIP-S-e supports the PM5032, PM5052, PM5072, PM5082 and PM5092 processor modules. This software-licensed approach provides EtherNet/IP scanner functionality without requiring a separate PLC-side EtherNet/IP communication module in supported applications.

Licence activation and management are handled through ABB Automation Builder. One runtime licence is required for each CPU using the EtherNet/IP scanner functionality, with activation possible through a direct Automation Builder connection or a memory card prepared by Automation Builder. ABB also permits runtime licences to be transferred between compatible AC500 CPUs.

EtherNet/IP Scanner Connectivity for AC500-eCo V3

EtherNet/IP uses the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) over standard Ethernet networking and employs a scanner-adapter relationship for industrial data exchange. With PS5613-EIP-S-e activated, a compatible AC500-eCo V3 processor can perform the scanner role, establishing and managing communications with EtherNet/IP adapter devices while continuing to execute its PLC control application.

Using onboard Ethernet helps simplify the control architecture and makes the licence particularly suitable for compact machinery and distributed automation. Compatible EtherNet/IP adapters can include remote I/O systems, drives and other industrial devices, allowing their process data to be incorporated into an AC500-eCo control application through a common industrial Ethernet network.

Typical Applications

• Industrial EtherNet/IP networks.
• Compact machine automation.
• Remote I/O integration.
• Industrial drive communications.
• Packaging and processing equipment.
• Material handling systems.
• Factory automation networks.
• OEM machinery and production equipment.
• Distributed automation systems.
• Integration of EtherNet/IP adapter devices with AC500-eCo V3 PLCs.
