ABB PS5613-EIP-S: EthernetIP Scanner license, AC500 V3 runtime license for onboard ETH, single activation key

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

The ABB PS5613-EIP-S is an EtherNet/IP scanner runtime licence for ABB AC500 V3 and compatible AC500-eCo V3 PLCs. It enables a supported processor to use its onboard Ethernet interface as an EtherNet/IP scanner, allowing the PLC to establish communications with compatible EtherNet/IP adapter devices across an industrial Ethernet network.

PS5613-EIP-S is suitable for PM5032, PM5052, PM5072, PM5082, PM5092 and PM56xx processors, providing a software-licensed approach to EtherNet/IP integration without requiring a separate PLC-side EtherNet/IP communication module. The PM5012 is not supported.

The runtime licence is managed through ABB Automation Builder. One licence is required for each CPU using the licensed functionality, and ABB runtime licences can be transferred between compatible AC500 CPUs when required. This makes PS5613-EIP-S a flexible solution for machine builders and system integrators connecting distributed EtherNet/IP equipment to an ABB AC500 control system.

EtherNet/IP Scanner Connectivity for ABB AC500

EtherNet/IP is an industrial Ethernet protocol based on the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP). Within an EtherNet/IP network, the scanner establishes and manages communications with adapter devices. PS5613-EIP-S enables a compatible ABB AC500 controller to perform this scanner role while simultaneously executing its PLC control application.

Using onboard Ethernet simplifies the system architecture and provides a convenient way to integrate EtherNet/IP equipment into an AC500-based machine or automation system. Typical connected equipment can include compatible remote I/O, drives, valve systems and other EtherNet/IP adapter devices, allowing process data to be exchanged with the PLC through the industrial Ethernet network.

Typical Applications

• Industrial EtherNet/IP networks.
• Machine automation systems.
• Remote I/O integration.
• Industrial drive communications.
• Packaging and processing machinery.
• Material handling systems.
• Factory automation networks.
• OEM machinery and production equipment.
• Distributed industrial control systems.
• Integration of EtherNet/IP adapter devices with ABB AC500 PLCs.
