Profibus-DP Interface for Mentor II

MD24

Profibus-DP is a high speed communications network and protocol, that allows large amounts of data to be transferred quickly to and from network nodes. The Profibus interface will detect the network data rate, and automatically synchronise to it. The Profibus-DP interface for Mentor II is a slave node only. Profibus-DP networks are "centralized" systems, requiring a master controller (usually a PLC) which controls all communications with slave nodes on the network. The Profibus interface for Mentor is a slave node only. Easy fit add on card for Mentor II Supports data rates up to 1.5 Mbits/sec Automatically recognizes the network data rate Supports three 16 bit cyclic data channels Full cyclic data channel mapping allows any cyclic data channel to control or source from any drive parameter Default mappings - - Speed/frequency feedback - Torque feedback - Status word provides status bits about 15 drive functions, eg drive healthy, drive running, at   speed etc. - Speed/frequency reference - Torque feedback reference - Control word allows ENABLE, RUN and DIRECTION signals, plus reference selection and user   bit parameters to be transmitted in one cyclic data word Network Loss detection will trip the drive (if enabled) if the network connection is lost Network RS485 optically-isolated physical layer Data rates from 9600 bits/sec to 1.5 Mbits/sec Up to 200m network length at 1.5 Mbits/sec Up to 400m network length at 500 Kbits/sec Up to 31 slave nodes without network repeaters Up to 125 nodes with repeaters The following data formats are supported: 8 bytes with full consistency 4 words with full consistency 4 words with no consistency GSD file available from local drive centre Profibus-DP specification from local drive centre Environment Ambient Temperature: -5ºC to +50ºC Storage Temperature: -40ºC to +50ºC Weight: 71g Maximum Altitude: 4000 m Humidity: +5% to +95% at 50ºC non-condensing
