Digital Ouputs
IMPORTANT – Add Protection With Inductive Loads: Outputs already
include internal reverse-bias shunt diodes to help protect the output switch
from damage due to the high reverse-bias voltages generated when
switching inductive loads. You should add external protection near the
inductive load to prevent these transients from being sent along the
connection wires. Place a diode (1N4006 or equivalent) across an inductive

TROUBLE- The module routinely performs internal diagnostics following power-up

or reset. During this period, the green “Run” LED will flash for a moment. If
SHOOTING the diagnostics complete OK, the “Run” LED will stop flashing after a few
seconds and remain ON. This indicates the unit is operating normally.
Once the unit has passed through the initialization, parameterization, and
configuration states, and is in data exchange mode, the yellow BUS LED will
be ON. If the BUS LED is OFF and the unit is connected to the network,
then this is indicative of an initialization problem.
Tips For Building • Follow the ProfiBus installation guidelines.

ProfiBus Networks • Use the recommended cable and connectors of the standard.
• Verify that none of the wires are broken or shorted.
• Don’t mix the A & B lines. Use green wire for A and red wire for B.
• Do not exceed the recommended segment length for the baud rate.
• Make sure that there are no more than 32 RS-485 devices per
segment (including the master device and the repeater).
• Check for proper termination of all copper-wire network segments
(an RS-485 segment must have a termination resistor at both ends
of the segment only).
• All activated terminations must be powered all the time. If this is not
possible, then consider using an active-termination box.
• Check whether the station address is set to the correct value.
• If your network connects between buildings or runs through
hazardous environments, consider the use of fiber-optics.
• Avoid drop lines and keep their length within the specified maximum.
For T-drops, consider using repeaters and active-bus terminations.

In general, these devices can be used to check the network wiring

before devices are connected to the bus and are often used to indicate:
• Whether the A and B lines have been switched.

• Whether a short exists between the A & B lines and shield.
• The occurrence of a wire-break in the A or B line, or shield line.
• Improper termination.
These devices can also be used to check the RS-485 interface of

ProfiBus devices after they have been connected. They may include the
following functions:
• Create a list of all stations connected to a network (useful for

identifying missing or “offline” devices).
• Test individual stations and help identify duplicate addresses.
• Measure the distance along a network segment to verify whether it
complies with Profibus requirements for distance and data rate.
• Detect signal reflections along the network, useful for locating bus
line interruptions and discontinuities.
Acromag strongly suggests the use of these tools for building and
maintaining ProfiBus networks.
Note that Profichip also offers a Profibus connector (PA003100) that

includes 4 network diagnostic LED’s that may be helpful in trouble-shooting
your network (see table below).

most of these connectors, when the termination resistors are switched ON,
the outgoing portion of the connector is disconnected. As such, you can
selectively disable segments of the network until you find the branch that is
causing the problem. For example, if your handheld unit is connected to the
beginning of a network and indicates a wire break, you can selectively switch
off portions of the network and recheck your handheld unit to help pin point
the portion of the network that is causing the problem. Below are some

HOW IT WORKS These digital I/O modules will interface with any mix of up to twelve
digital input and/or output signals according to the model, and provide an
isolated RS485/ProfiBus interface for configuration, monitoring, and control
of the I/O. Outputs of these models are the open-drains of n-channel
mosfets (982PB & 983PB). Input buffers are connected in tandem with the
drain circuits via series 100KΩ resistors, and over-voltage clamps to +5V are
connected to the buffer inputs (981PB & 983PB). I/O terminals also include
transient suppression. Sockets are installed for installation of optional input
or output drain pull-up resistors, and 5.6K SIP resistors are installed from the
factory. These resistors are pulled up to an external supply connected to the
EXC and RTN terminals. These modules implement the ProfiBus protocol
via an industry-standard SPC3 ASIC from Siemens. This ASIC acts like a
RAM or UART chip to the internal microcontroller and completely handles
the requirements of the protocol standard. The ASIC communicates with the
network via an optically isolated RS485 transceiver. It transfers network
data to the microcontroller and automatically provides the response to the
bus. The microcontroller completes the information transfer according to its
I/O type and embedded program. I/O lines of the microcontroller switch
outputs ON/OFF and sample the digital inputs. Embedded configuration
parameters are stored in non-volatile memory integrated within the micro-
controller. A wide input switching regulator (isolated flyback) provides
isolated power to the I/O circuit and the RS485 port. Refer to the simplified
schematic shown below to gain a better understanding of the circuit.

These DIN-rail mount, ProfiBus DP slave, digital I/O modules include twelve SPECIFICATIONS
digital inputs (981PB), twelve digital outputs (982PB), or twelve combination
digital input/output channels (983PB), and provide an isolated
RS485/ProfiBus network interface. Units are DC-powered and include
reverse polarity protection. Outputs are open-drain, low-side switches.
Inputs are active-low. Channel I/O, network, and power are isolated.
Outputs have high voltage and current capacity for discrete on/off control of
external devices. Non-inverting, buffered inputs provide support for digital
level sensing, or for simply reading back the tandem output (983PB). I/O
channels share common. Pull-up resistors to the port EXC supply (every
four channels) are installed in sockets on the board. Non-volatile
reprogrammable memory in the module stores configuration information.

Digital Outputs Note (983PB): The 100KΩ series input buffer resistors in combination
(982PB & 983PB Only) with the +5V voltage clamps at the input buffers will tend to increase the
off-state drain current with increased drain voltage (up to 0.3mA at
35V). This is due to the fact that the input buffer circuitry and output
mosfet drain circuitry are connected in tandem to the same I/O pin for
the Model 983PB.

Output Response Time: 220us typical measured from output trigger at the
ASIC to corresponding input transition at the ASIC. Actual switch time
will vary with output load and interrupts.
Note: Per UL, when the outputs are used to control interposing relays
for switching AC and DC devices of higher voltage/current, the coil
ratings for the interposing relay shall not exceed 24VDC, 100mA.
General Specifications I/O Pullups & Socket: I/O channels include sockets for installation of
optional SIP resistor networks to act as pull-ups for the channel. These
resistors are located on the plug-in I/O board (cover removal required).
A SIP socket is included for each group of four channels (port) and a
5.6KΩ resistor SIP is installed from the factory. The even-numbered
pins of these sockets (common leads) connect to the port EXC+
terminal. An external excitation supply is typically connected between
the EXC+ and RTN terminals of the port. The recommended SIP
resistor is a four isolated resistor type (8 pins) and may be obtained
from Acromag or another vendor. These SIP resistors typically come
rated for 0.2W, 0.3W, or 0.4W per element. For example, refer to
Bourns 4308R-102, 4308M-102, or 4308H-102 parts. You may also
refer to Dale CSC08C03, MSP08C03, or MSM08C-03 parts. The
5.6KΩ SIP provided is a high-power type from Bourns (part number
4308H-102-562) and is rated at 0.4W per resistor up to 70°C. See I/O
Pullup Resistor Installation section for more information.
IMPORTANT: When selecting a SIP resistor, be sure to limit the
individual resistor power dissipation to less than the rated power per
element. This is 0.4W for the 5.6KΩ SIP resistor installed from the
factory. Further, do not exceed 500mA of drain current per output, or
2A total per RTN terminal.
Excitation (External): External voltage is applied between the port EXC
and RTN terminals and must be limited to 35V or less. The EXC
terminal is tied to the even-numbered pins of the resistor SIP socket
provided for each port or group of 4 channels.

Parity: Even parity. Communication
Stop Bits: One. Interface
Communication Distance: Up to 1200 meters without a repeater.
Address: Set via two rotary hexadecimal switches adjacent to the power
terminals, or alternately via the Set Slave Address command. Valid
setting is 0-125 (7 bits). Address 126 (7EH) is a default factory address
reserved for commissioning purposes only. Address 127 (7FH) is
reserved by the software as a global address for broadcast messages.
If the address switches are set to 126 upon power-up (or 126 to 254),
then the unit will retrieve its address from its internal EEPROM rather
than the switches. The internal EEPROM setting is modified via the Set
Slave Address command. Powering up with switches set to 255 (FFH)
will cause the internal EEPROM setting to revert back to 126 (7EH),
which may be used to re-commission the module. If both the internal
EEPROM address and the switches are set to 126 upon power-up (this
is the initial state from the factory), the module will await the Set Slave
Address command before completing initialization and assuming the
data exchange mode.
IMPORTANT (Address Setting): The internal EEPROM address
setting and external switch setting is 126 from the factory. As such, the
module will await the Set Slave Address command following power-up
and will not proceed to exchange data, unless the external switches are
instead set to an address from 0-125, or the internal setting is changed
to an address from 0-125 via the Set Slave Address command.
Maximum Message Size: Up to 32 bytes recommended, extendable up to
244 bytes of data/node/message, plus 11 bytes of overhead (frame).
ProfiBus Character: 11 bits (1 start bit + 8 data bits + 1 even parity bit + 1
stop bit). Applies to all bytes, including frame bytes.
Bus Idle State: “1” (a start bit causes line to go to “0”). An idle state of at
least 33 Tbits (sync-time) must be provided between messages.
Note: 1Tbit at 12Mbaud = 1/12000000bit/sec = 83nsec.
Ident_Number: 06F3 Hex (981PB-2012), 06F2 Hex (982PB-2012), 06F1
Hex (983PB-2012).
GSD File: ACRO06F3.GSD (981PB-2012), ACRO06F2.GSD (982PB-
2012), ACRO06F1.GSD (983PB-2012).
Network Capacity: Multi-drop up to 31 modules, plus a host, without a
repeater. Up to 125 modules plus a host if four repeaters are used (one
for every 31 nodes).
Network Termination: Use 220Ω “A” to “B”, plus 390Ω “A” to GND, and
390Ω “B” to +5V. Use ±2%, 0.25W resistors.
LED Indicators: Controls & Indicators

Run (Green) - Constant ON if power is on and unit is OK. Flashing
ON/OFF indicates unit is performing diagnostics (first few seconds
after power-up), or has failed diagnostics (after a few seconds).
Bus (Yellow) – ON indicates unit has completed its initialization
sequence and is in the data exchange mode on the network.
Output (Yellow, One Per Output) – ON if output relay is ON (closed).

Module-Specific This model includes three user parameterization bytes (User_Prm_Data)

defined as follows:
Parameters
Byte Description Default
0 Do Not Use - Reserved for SPC3 ASIC. NA
1 (982/983PB Only) Action taken in Clear Mode or upon 00H
watchdog timeout.
00H = Clear outputs (set all outputs to zero).
01H = Do not change (maintain last output states).
02H = Set outputs according to user definition in bytes
1 and 2 defined below.
2 (982/983PB Only) Output Data lower byte (bits 0-7 for 00H
digital outputs 0-7).
Bit position determines output channel. 0 = Output
OFF, 1 = Output ON.
3 (982/983PB Only) Output Data upper byte (bits 8-11 for 00H
digital outputs 8-11, bits 12-15 are not used and set to
0). Bit position determines output channel. 0 = Output
OFF, 1 = Output ON.
This model does not include any user defined diagnostic data
(Ext_Diag_Data).
Data Types I/O values of Acromag 9xxPB modules are represented by the following
simple data types for temperature, percentage, and discrete on/off. Note
that when transferring words, data bytes are transmitted using “Big Endian”
format (MSB first, LSB second).
Data Types Description

Percentage A 16-bit signed integer value with resolution of
0.005%/lsb. ±20000 is used to represent ±100%. For
example, -100%, 0% and +100% are represented by
decimal values –20000, 0, and 20000, respectively. The
full range is –163.84% (-32768 decimal) to +163.835%
(+32767 decimal).
Temperature A 16-bit signed integer value with resolution of 0.1°C/lsb.
For example, a value of 12059 is equivalent to 1205.9°C,
a value of –187 equals –18.7°C. The maximum possible
temperature range is –3276.8°C to +3276.7°C.
Discrete A discrete value is generally indicated by a single bit of an
(This Model) 8-bit byte. The bit number/position typically corresponds
to the discrete channel number. Unless otherwise
defined for outputs, a 1 bit means the corresponding
output is closed or ON, a 0 bit means the output is open
or OFF. For active-high inputs, a value of 1 typically
means the input is in its high state (usually >> 0V), while
a value of 0 specifies the input is in its low state (near
0V). I/O channels of this model are active-low. For
active low inputs, a value of 1 means the input is ON
(Active low near 0V), while a value of 0 specifies the input
is OFF or in its high state (usually >> 0V).
