Product Description
2.1
Use and Application
The VLX-F231-B6 interface module serves as an interface between SmartRunner (from now
on referred to as the sensor) and the PROFIBUS DP input card of the control panel. Data is
transferred between the sensor or sensors and the VLX-F231-B6 interface module via the RS-
485 interface and from the VLX-F231-B6 interface module to the control panel via the
PROFIBUS DP protocol.
You can connect up to four sensors. If you connect several sensors, they must have different
addresses. The VLX-F231-B6 interface module constantly queries the position values of the
sensors and always has the current sensor data.
