FPBA-01 PROFIBUS DP adapter module
The FPBA-01 PROFIBUS DP adapter module is an optional
device for ABB drives which enables the connection of the drive to
a PROFIBUS network. The drive is considered a slave on the
PROFIBUS network.
Through the adapter module you can:
•
give control commands to the drive (for example, Start, Stop,
Run enable)
•
feed a motor speed or torque reference to the drive
•
give a process actual value or a process reference to the PID
controller of the drive
•
read status information and actual values from the drive
•
change drive parameter values
•
reset a drive fault.
The PROFIBUS commands and services supported by the adapter
module are described in chapter Communication protocol . Refer to
the user documentation of the drive as to which commands are
supported by the drive.
The adapter module is mounted into an option slot on the motor
control board of the drive. See the drive manuals for module
placement options.
