Configuration
This chapter describes a sample configuration of an ET 200pro with RF170C.
Structure
The ET 200pro is installed on a rack and consists basically of the following:
•
an interface module that transfers data to the DP master or IO controller,
•
or a CPU,
•
up to 9 RF170C modules,
•
Connection modules for an interface module in various designs for
–
Interface modules (PROFIBUS DP, PROFINET IO, power supply)
–
Communications modules
This allows you create the setup precisely the meet your local requirements.
The simple handling of the ET 200pro ensures fast commissioning and easy maintenance.
Note
Configuring the ET 200pro
The maximum electrical setup can be checked with the TIA Selection Tool. We recommend
use of the tool because the maximum setup cannot be achieved with all reader
configurations.
