Interface modules for various fieldbuses and networks are available to
facilitate application of VariMotion in an array of system topologies.
All interface modules impress with a combination of high throughput
and fast response times, factors of particular significance at high
clock rates. To satisfy the demands associated with this criterion
an ARM-based netX processor is used with Industrial Internet.
In addition, VariMotion can also be controlled in non-real-time networks by the TCP/IP protocol.

This is particularly interesting for connecting VariMotion
directly to a PC or a computer, since they have an Ethernet Connection
with TCP/IP is standard. Since VariMotion has an integrated
control, time-critical tasks can be realized.
With Profinet it is also possible to transmit TCP/IP in addition
to the process data. This means that the access to variables, the
transfer of process data and the programming run via a single connection.
