Features
The ILX56-PBS will allow the user to interface PROFIBUS DPV0/DPV1 to a ControlLogix
controller via the 1756 ControlLogix backplane. The ILX56-PBS also supports an onboard
non-volatile event log for improved fault finding.
PROFIBUS Slave (ILX56-PBS)
The ILX56-PBS can also be configured to emulate up to 10 PROFIBUS slave devices. Each
slave device emulated by the ILX56-PBS can be configured to provide DPV0 data exchange
with a PROFIBUS Master on the network.
The data will be formatted into the engineering units for use in a ControlLogix platform by
using the automatically-generated mapping imports for Logix User Defined Data Types
(UDTs).
Each emulated slave can also be configured to exchange DPV1 Class 1 data by mapping
Logix tags for the relevant DPV1 data exchange. Each emulated slave will also be able to
provide DPV1 alarming for the PROFIBUS Master.
