I'm looking to control a servo-drive slave using an NI compactRIO-9082 as a master. The problem is that the drive only uses interbus, which is not supported by NI. I've been looking for a gateway that could act as an interbus master, however none seem available (i've contacted AnyBus, Beckhoff, and Phoenix Contact). Is there a particular hardware/software reason such a product doesn't exist i.e. is it even possible?

thanks.
