INTRODUCTION
Profibus DP is an industrial fieldbus which allows to connect actuators and other devices (sensors,…)
to a Digital Control System (DCS). Many actuators and other devices can be connected on a single
fieldbus line provided they are all equipped with a compatible Profibus interface. The Profibus DP
interface described in this document has been specially designed for the Bernard actuators with
I, or controls.
As far as actuators with controls are concerned, please refer to the Profibus DPV1 for
instructions for start-up.
Control box with inside Profibus DP interface could be supplied to connect other equipment.
Redundant communication
The redundant version is specially interesting to ensure a communication continuity even if one line
disrupted or if one interface board is out of order for any reason.
In case of a redundant bus, the DCS must be able to manage 2 fieldbus lines.
In case of failure along the main line, the DCS can still communicate through the auxiliary line.
According to the fieldbus version required an INTEGRALBUS, single or redundant line, may equip
the actuator.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
- The PROFIBUS-DP slave board can be controlled by a master PROFIBUS-DP board : PLC, PC, DCS
and other interface boards…from various suppliers.
- Hardware communication standard : RS 485.
- Automatic speed selection : 9.6k … 1.5Mbauds.
- Actuators addresses from 1 to 99
- Maximum number of actuators by line : 31 (up to 99 with repeaters)
- 2 communication status leds and 1 power supply status Led.
- Approved by PNO (Profibus Nutzer Organisation).
- CE conformity.
- GSD file name : Single line LBVS 099.GSD
Redundant line LBVR 099.GSD
- Fieldbus is electrically totally isolated from the actuator circuitry. In case of a redundant version,
each input is electrically isolated from the actuator circuitry and are isolated from each other.
- A loss of the actuator power supply do not lead to a fieldbus disruption.
- Temperature working range is the same as the actuator one.
