BIS Z-GW-001-PBS
Subnet16™ Profibus Gateway
INSTALLATION GUIDE
This document provides instructions and information designed
to assist users in the hardware setup of the Subnet16™
Profibus Gateway. For configuration details see the Gateway
Series Reference Manual.
The BIS Z-GW-001-PBS is designed to connect RFID
applications to a Profibus network. The Gateway is a Profibus
Slave node which connects to a Profibus Master (Host PC or
PLC) through a Profibus-compatible network cable.
It supports Subnet16™ Multidrop bus architecture, a
subnetwork of up to sixteen Processor stations, through an
RS485 interface connection.
A USB port is used for establishing a direct serial connection
with a host computer for the purpose of configuring the
Gateway through the Dashboard Configuration Tool program.

HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS
The following components are required for a complete Subnet16™
RFID system:
•
One Subnet16™ Profibus Gateway Interface Module
•
One Profibus-capable host; Programmable Logic Processor
(PLC) or PC
•
One to 16 processors (BIS M-41x, BIS M-62x or BIS U-62x-
Series Processors - RS485 models)
•
Adequate length cabling, connectors and terminators
•
A suitable power supply capable of providing sufficient power
to the Gateway and its Processor’s via Subnet16™ network
cabling
•
Balluff RFID data carrier or labels: BIS M-1xx or BIS U-1xx
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
•
Do not route cables near unshielded cables or near wiring carrying
high voltage or high current. Cross cables at perpendicular
intersections and avoid routing cables near motors and solenoids.
•
Review the power requirements of your RFID network and provide
a suitable power supply.
•
Avoid mounting the processor near sources of EMI (electro-
magnetic interference) or near devices that generate high ESD
(electro-static discharge) levels. Always use adequate ESD
prevention measures to dissipate potentially high voltages.
•
If electrical interference is encountered (as indicated by a
significant reduction in read/write performance), relocate the
processor to an area free from potential sources of interference.
•
Perform a test phase by constructing a small scale, independent
network that includes only the essential devices required to test
your RFID application (use Balluff approved Subnet16™ cables
and accessories).
INSTALLATION
The numbered steps in the following procedure are also indicated in
the Subnet16™ network example layout shown in the figure.
1. Preliminary Notes: Read this document in its entirety and note
the Installation Guidelines above.
2. Mounting: Mount the Gateway to your chosen location using two
M5 (#10) screws, lock washers and nuts. The Gateway may be
mounted in any orientation, but should be aligned in such a
manner that the LED indicators can be seen during operation.
3. Gateway Connection: Attach one end of a 5-pin, male-to-male,
M12, ThinNet drop cable (P/N: BCC0ET4) to the 5-pin, female,
M12 connector on the Gateway. Connect the other end of this 5-
pin, male-to-male, M12, ThinNet drop cable to the 5-pin, female,
M12 connector on a ThinNet to ThinNet Drop-T Connector (as
per your network and RFID application requirements).
4. Trunk Wiring: Attach one end of a male-to-female trunk cable to
each mating connector on the Drop-T Connector. Continue
connecting trunk cables and Drop-T connectors as needed.
Note: trunk length should not exceed 300 m for ThickNet and 20 m
for ThinNet.
5. Termination Resistors: For ThinNet Networks: Connect a
Terminating Resistor (P/N: BCC9MR, male) to the first and last
Drop-T Connector on the trunk line.
