This page shows a few examples of how the KUNBUS Gateways can be used. These are the following:
Modular Gateway PROFINET IRT
Modular Gateway EtherCAT
Modular Gateway Ethernet/IP
Connect two PLC together with two KUNBUS Gateways and a RevolutionPi Revolution Pi main Module
You can use two gateways in conjunction with a RevolutionPi Revolution Pi Core to connect two PLCs.
The advantage of this configuration is:
The RevolutionPi Revolution Pi can analyse, process and edit the data before forward it - see RevolutionPi Gateway Tutorial
The PLCs can have different protocols
...
You can also do this with the RevolutionPi Revolution Pi Connect +/S. For this you can also use a CON module.

Use cases
Connectivity
Control a RevolutionPi Revolution Pi IO-Modules from an external device
You can read or write the inputs/outputs of a Revolution IO-Module via an external device. This can be done with the help of a KUNBUS Gateway module.
A RevolutionPi Revolution Pi Core or Connect is also required for this.
...
Additional Information
On each PiBridgePi Bridge, we support a maximum of 5 devices. Only one GW can be used per PiBridge Pi Bridge side, and the gateway must always be the last component.
No gateways or IO modules can be used on the ConBridge. There are special CON modules for this.
The RevolutionPi Revolution Pi Core SE and Connect SE do not have GW functionality. This means that no KUNBUS GW can be connected there.
