2.1 Use and Application
The WCS-PNG210 interface module acts as an interface between the WCS reader and the
PROFIN T IO controller. The device has two PROFIN T ports. The second port can be used,
for example, as an outgoing PROFIN T port. The data between the WCS reader and WCS-
PNG210 is transmitted via an RS-485 interface. The data from the WCS-PNG210 to the
controller is transmitted via the PROFIN T protocol.
You can connect a maximum of four WCS readers of type LS221 (and/or LS121) to one WCS-
PNG210 interface module. If you connect several WCS readers, they must have different
addresses. The number of connected WCS readers is configured in the hardware project
settings.
