PROFIBUS DP Slave
PTQ-PDPS
The PROFIBUS DP Slave module is a powerful communication interface for Unity and Quantum platform processors that allows you to interface easily with a PROFIBUS DP Master device. Developed under license from Schneider Electric, the module incorporates proprietary backplane technology that enables powerful data exchange with Unity and Quantum processors.
Features and Benefits
The PROFIBUS DP Slave protocol driver supports the PROFIBUS V0 Slave implementation, providing powerful data transfer capability between the module and Scneider Electric Quantum and Unity processors. User configurable data mapping and DP port operation make the interface an easy to use and powerful data transfer tool.
The PTQ module Configuration/Debug Serial port connects a PC to the module for configuration, status, monitoring, and troubleshooting (Serial cable is included with product shipment). After editing on a PC, a configuration file is downloaded and stored on the PTQ module.
The PROFIBUS DP Slave gives access to the unit's input and output images with up to 244 bytes of Input and Output data, for a maximum of 400 bytes total. These Input and Output data blocks are mapped by the user within the inRAx module's data memory allowing maximum flexibility and data transfer with other protocols.
General Specifications
- Single Slot -Quantum backplane compatible
- The module is recognized as an Options module and has access to PLC memory for data transfer
- Configuration data is stored in non-volatile memory in the ProTalk module
- Up to six modules can be placed in a rack
- Local rack - The module must be placed in the same rack as processor.
- Compatible with common Quantum / Unity programming tools.
- Quantum data types supported: 3x, 4x
- High speed data transfer across backplane provides quick data update times.
- Sample ladder file available.
Applications
With the growing usage of the PROFIBUS DPV1 protocol in the industrial marketplace, this product has a wide variety of application uses. Industries that use this technology include:
- Power and distribution applications
- Petrochemical
- Water and Gas Applications
- SCADA and DCS applications
