Productivity Bus Couplers

New!

The P1-UX Universal Bus Coupler transforms Productivity1000 I/O into flexible, controller-agnostic field I/O. It enables any PLC or control system that supports standard industrial Ethernet protocols to seamlessly communicate with and control P1000 I/O modules. By decoupling I/O from a specific PLC platform, the P1-UX gives engineers the freedom to standardize on high-value Productivity1000 I/O across multiple control architectures—whether using Productivity controllers, third-party PLCs, or mixed systems.

• Converts Productivity1000 I/O into universal remote I/O
• Enables integration with non-Productivity controllers
• Maximizes reuse of proven, low-cost I/O hardware
• Simplifies system design across diverse automation platforms

Communication Capabilities
The P1-UX is designed for broad compatibility with modern industrial networks by supporting:

• Modbus TCP (Server/Slave)
  • Open, widely adopted Ethernet protocol
  • Ideal for integration with SCADA systems, HMIs, and
    PLCs
  • Simple implementation with broad cross-vendor
    compatibility
  • Enables cost-effective networking for a wide range of
    applications
• EtherNet/IP (Adapter)
  • Industry-standard protocol for industrial automation
    (ODVA-based)
  • Seamless integration with popular PLC platforms (Allen-
    Bradley and others)
  • High-performance implicit messaging for real-time
    control
  • Simplifies data exchange in plant-wide Ethernet architectures

Built-In Webserver Configuration
The P1-UX simplifies setup and operation with a fully integrated on-board webserver, eliminating the need for dedicated configuration software or complex installation tools.

• Faster Setup, Less Complexity - 
  Forget installing and maintaining proprietary software. The web-based interface allows technicians and engineers to:
  
  • Configure network settings and I/O mapping directly from a browser
  • Commission systems quickly with minimal setup time
  • Reduce IT overhead and compatibility concerns
• Anywhere Access for Modern Workflows - 
  Because configuration is browser-based, the P1-UX supports more
  flexible and mobile workflows:
  • Access from laptops, tablets, or remote maintenance stations
  • No need to install software on every engineering workstation
  • Simplifies support in distributed or remote applications
• Built-In Diagnostics = Faster Troubleshooting - 
  The webserver isn’t just for setup—it also provides visibility into
  system operation:
  
  • View real-time status of connected I/O
  • Quickly identify communication or configuration issues
  • Reduce downtime with faster root-cause analysis
