Benderlink Ethernet Module
Contents |
About
The module connects any bender or measuring center devices through your Ethernet network to a bender that normally connects using only standard RS-232 signals. It gives your bender or measuring center access to a virtual COM port anywhere on the network in your building. Distance limitations are gone with this protocol. We have WiFi (wireless) and WIRED TCP/IP models.
The module can even be equipped with Eaton Leonard current loop boards (our own model) to allow for 100% compatible Eaton Leonard legacy protocol through the network!
Any serial or current-loop bender can benefit from this technology.

Why Don't Other Benders Need This Module?
Many benders now have network capability built-in to the control. For example, the Advanced Tubular CNC Bender software recognizes and uses the SVNET protocol, which is a network protocol that does not need serial ports.
