PROFIBUSDP field bus

PROFIBUS is the bus system for communication in small cell networks and with field device. PROFIBUS is based on the European standard EN 50170 and is implement ed worldwide in the field envi ronment. By meeting the requirements of EN 50170, PROFIBUS ensures that it is open to the linking of components from other manufacturers which comply with the standard. Siemens supports the con nection of further field devices to PROFIBUS by marketing ASICs and submodules as well as providing technical advice for manufacturers of PROFIBUS components. Three protocol profiles are available for the various re quirements and applications in the field and cell areas: PROFIBUSDP (distributed I/Os) S PROFIBUSFMS (field bus message specification) S PROFIBUSP A (process automation)

Distributed I/Os

Application

PROFIBUSDP PROFIBUSDP complies with EN 50170. PROFIBUSDP is character ized by fast cyclic commu nication with small data quan tities. Data transfer rates up to 12 Mbit/s are possible. PROFIBUSDP allows distrib uted ET 200 I/O stations, hu manmachineinterfaces and field devices to communicate with the programmable con trollers. In addition with SIMATIC S7/M7, it is possible to program, startup, test and diagnose the complete au tomation system via the field bus.

PROFIBUSFMS PROFIBUSFMS complies with the PROFIBUS standard EN 50170 and is designed for communication with more complex field devices with an FMS interface and for smaller cell networks (10 to 15 stations). Data transfer rates up to 1.5 Mbit/s are possible. PROFIBUSFMS and DP All protocols are based on the same bus components and can be operated together on one line (combination master). PROFIBUSP A A is the protocol PROFIBUSP profile for process automa tion, especially for the intrinsi callysafe area. PROFIBUS provides solutions ranging from the field area to the cell area.

The following stations can be connected to PROFIBUS: Active stations (master) S S5115U/H, S5135U, S5155U/H programmable controllers, each with IM 308C (as DP master up to 12 Mbit/s) or CP 5431 (as combination master with FMS and DP), S595U with integrated interface (max. 1.5 Mbit/s) S S7300, S7400, M7300, M7400 programmable con trollers with integrated PROFIBUSDP interface, CP 3425 (combination mas ter) or CP 4435 (combination mas ter); max. 12 Mbit/s.

Electrical network The electrical network uses a shielded, twisted, twocore cable. The RS 485 interface operates using voltage differ ences. It is therefore less sen sitive to interference than a voltage or current interface. With PROFIBUS, the stations are connected to the bus via a bus terminal or bus connector (max. 32 stations per seg ment). The individual segments are linked via repeaters.

The ASInterface can be con nected to PROFIBUS directly to SIMATIC S5/S7 via the CP 3422 (available soon), CP 2433 or CP 2430 master modules or directly to a PC via CP 2413 and S via a DP/ASInterface link

The data transfer rate is se lectable in stages from 9.6 to 1.5 Mbit/s. For extremely timecritical distributed I/O applications, data transfer rates of 3, 6 and 12 Mbit/s are additionally possible. The maximum segment length depends on the data transfer rate. Optical network The fiber optic version of PROFIBUS is immune to elec tromagnetic interferences. It is suitable for long distances and offers a choice of plastic or glass fiber optic cables. The stations are connected to the optical network via an op tical bus terminal or optical link module (OLM). OLMs enable the creation of an optical network with a linear, ring or star structure.

The maximum distance be tween two OLMs is 15 km (9.3 m). The data transfer rate is selectable in stages from 9.6 to 1.5 Mbit/s. The maximum segment length for the optical version of PROFIBUS is independent of the data transfer rate. Mixed networks Mixed structures based on electrical and optical net works are possible. The transition between the two media is provided by the OLM. For communication between stations on the bus, there is no difference between the twowire and fiberoptic sys tems. Up to 127 stations can be connected to a PROFIBUS network.

The PROFIBUS access meth od uses the principle of token passing with subordinate master/slave as specified in EN 50170. A distinction is made between active and passive network stations. Only active stations receive the token, i.e. the transmis sion authorization which is passed from one active sta tion to the next within a speci fied time. The system automatically de tects whether a station has dropped out or whether a new one has joined the network. The COM ET 200 parameter ization software allows simple menudriven parameterization of the PROFIBUSDP field bus with a SIMATIC S5 master with IM 308C interface mod ule as well as with the S595U/DP master program mable controller. For further information on configuration with COM ET 200, see Section 7. Passive stations do not re ceive the transmission autho rization. They are directly ad dressed by the master module to which they are as signed. All stations in the network must be set to the same data transfer rate. ET 200 handheld unit The ET 200 handheld unit is a small handheld programming device for startup and diag nostics of distributed I/O sta tions. As no communications proc essor is required it is espe cially economical. For further information on the ET 200 handheld unit, see page 6/38.
