ADDS PROFIBUS DP CONNECTIVITY TO THE DATA STATION

PROFIBUS DP SLAVE PROTOCOL

EASY INSTALLATION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Both the Modular Controller Master (enhanced models) and Data Station
Plus contain a proprietary expansion port which provides a high speed, parallel
architecture that extends the functionality and flexibility of the platform. This
approach allows these products to evolve concurrently with the latest advances
in communications and standards, without sacrificing performance. This high
bandwidth channel has significantly greater throughput when compared to the
traditional (external) serial gateway approach.
The XCPB option card adds PROFIBUS DP connectivity to the series. This
allows a high-speed exchange of blocks of data, at data rates up to 12MBaud,
between the hosting Modular Controller or Data Station and a Master PLC or
PC on a PROFIBUS network. The DP suffix refers to “Decentralized
Periphery”, which is used to describe distributed I/O devices connected via a
fast serial data link with a central controller.
The XCPB communication card is easily installed by removing the blank
expansion port cover of your Modular Controller or Data Station Plus, and
plugging the XCPB card into the expansion port. Configuration is simple using
Red Lion’s free Crimson 2.0 software.
SAFETY SUMMARY
All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in the
literature or on equipment must be observed to ensure personal safety and to
prevent damage to either the instrument or equipment connected to it. If
equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection
provided by the equipment may be impaired.
Do not use the controller to directly command motors, valves, or other
actuators not equipped with safeguards. To do so can be potentially harmful to
persons or equipment in the event of a fault to the controller.
