ibaBM-DPM-S-64
As a member of the bus monitor family ("ibaBM-.."), the ibaBM-DPM-S-64 device is
used by the iba measured value acquisition or control systems as an interface for ex-
changing data on the Profibus DP ("..DPM.."). It belongs to a new generation of devices
("..-S") with a modular construction.
The device is designed for measuring a maximum number of 64 analog and digital sig-
nals.
Overview of the most important features:
Profibus connectors for the connection of two DP lines or for looping through to one
line
Both lines can be terminated separately
Bidirectional data transfer
Profibus interface with up to 12 Mbit/s
A total of 2 DP slaves with 32 analog and 32 digital signals each
Logs up to 64 analog signals and 64 digital signals in 1 ms
Slot for CompactFlash
®
cards for configuration data
USB and Ethernet interfaces for configuring the device from your PC
Windows CE
®
operating system
Note
The device supports Profibus DP-V0 (cyclical data traffic).
DP-V1 und DP-V2 are not supported.
The device can be integrated into an existing DP network without any significant physi-
cal changes to the network. Due to its size and mounting fixture, the ibaBM-DPM-S-64
device is easy to insert directly near the DP master between the master and the rest of
the network. Due to the ibaNet fiber optic connection, data from the Profibus can be
transmitted without disruption over long distances and through areas with strong elec-
tro magnetic fields.
Note
The device is not intended for the use of "Request" functions (S7-Request,
FM-Request, TDC-Request).
