2. Applications
The CIM 500 Ethernet module enables data
transmission between an Industrial Ethernet network
and a Grundfos product.
The module supports various Industrial Ethernet
protocols. See section
3.3 Selection of Industrial
Ethernet
protocol.
The module is fitted in the product to be
communicated with, in a CIU 500 or in an E-box 500.
Retrofitting of the module is described in the
installation and operating instructions of the
Grundfos product.
Configuration is done via the built-in webserver,
using a standard web browser on a PC.
You can download the specific functional profile for
the product in question from Grundfos Product
Center.
