1.6.1 Communication-capable low-voltage switching technology
This uniform range of communication-capable Siemens switching devices
represents an innovative concept for effective cubicle automation. Commu-
nication with the higher-level control system via open, PROFIBUS-DP, and
AS-Interface connections.
Actuator-sensor inter-
face (AS-Interface)
AS-Interface is a standardized, non-proprietary networking system
(IEC 62026-2) for simple and usually binary actuators and sensors. It is pos-
sible to connect it to SIMATIC programmable logic controllers via different
master modules. A DP/AS-Interface link also ensures direct integration in a
PROFIBUS-DP system or connection to other field buses via couplers. Up to
248 sensors and 186 actuators can be connected to an AS-Interface network
over a maximum of 500 m. Safety-related signals can now also be net-
worked with AS-Interface, thus dispensing with the wiring of emergency
stop signals that was needed previously.
PROFIBUS
PROFIBUS is a standardized, non-proprietary field bus system (IEC 61158)
to which most PLCs of leading manufacturers can be connected. Up to 125
nodes can be incorporated in one bus segment. Distances of up to 9.6 km
can be bridged with copper cables and up to 100 km with fiber-optic cables.
