The Kinco GK2070HE ships with Ethernet and one isolated RS-485 port. If that does not cover your fieldbus, plug one of the two GK20 communication modules into an expansion slot and you have the right interface — no gateway, no second device.
🌐 The two modules
GK20-CAN: CAN 2.0B with CANopen master function. Connect CANopen slaves such as drives, valve islands or remote I/O straight to the built-in PLC. Slot EXP1.
GK20-COM: 1 x RS-485 and 1 x RS-232 in one module, with Modbus RTU as master and slave plus free-protocol communication for devices with their own ASCII syntax — scales, printers, barcode readers, instruments. Slot EXP0.
🏭 Typical applications
Drives over CANopen: run several axes on one bus instead of wiring each one with analog signals.
A second serial line: the built-in RS-485 already serves a third-party device and your sensors need their own bus. GK20-COM provides the second line.
RS-232 devices: older printers, scales and instruments do not speak RS-485. GK20-COM connects them directly, without a level converter.
🔧 Slots: two per device
EXP0: analog (IV), thermocouple (TC), RTD (RD), digital inputs (DI), digital outputs (DO) and the COM communication module.
EXP1: the same I/O modules plus the CAN communication module.
💡 That means a maximum of two modules at a time — and only one CAN and one COM module, because those two are tied to their respective slot.
🔗 Compatibility
Both modules are designed for the Kinco GK series and fit the GK2070HE-42DTP. Communication is configured in KincoBuilder Pro within the base unit's application program.
🏷️ Manufacturer and reliability
Kinco Automation is an established manufacturer with years of experience in HMI, PLC and drive technology for the global industrial market. The GK20 modules are original accessories and are powered directly through the GK expansion slots — no separate power supply, no external wiring.
