Performance features of the PAC PROFIBUS DP expansion module
You can use the PAC PROFIBUS DP expansion module to access the SENTRON PAC
Power Monitoring Devices during operation.
Overview
Features include:
●
Communication based on the PROFIBUS DP master-slave principle:
The PAC PROFIBUS DP expansion module provides the PROFIBUS DP master with
measured values of the SENTRON PAC Power Monitoring Device. It receives
information, e.g. commands, from the PROFIBUS DP master, and forwards this
information to the SENTRON PAC Power Monitoring Device.
●
Function: PROFIBUS DP slave
●
Communication with the class 1 master and the class 2 masters
●
Cyclic data transfer
●
Acyclic data transfer
●
Specific GSD file for every Power Monitoring Device type. This allows correct integration
into the controller.
●
Automatic detection of the baud rate
●
Clock synchronization depending on the device type
●
Setting the PROFIBUS address:
–
At the device
–
With parameterization software
–
Per PROFIBUS
●
Generation of diagnostic interrupts and process interrupts
●
Diagnostics also via the local display
●
Status display via LED
●
To ensure galvanic isolation between the SENTRON PAC Power Monitoring Device and
the PROFIBUS.
