Product Short Description
Product Name: SST 5136‑PFB‑PCI Profibus‑DP Master Development Card
Product Introduction: A WOODHEAD‑produced Profibus‑DP interface card for the PCI bus, designed for Profibus‑DP fieldbus development and configuration. It operates as a Profibus‑DP master to build and control a Profibus‑DP network.
Technical Specifications:
-
Bus Interface: PCI
Description
-
Network Role: Profibus‑DP Master
-
Transmission Rates: Supports all standard Profibus transmission rates, including 45.45 kbps
-
Slave Management: Can attach multiple slaves and configure each slave’s I/O buffer size
Functional Features:
-
Full Profibus‑DP master capability
-
Companion software displays discovered slave addresses, allowing configuration of each slave and its input/output buffer allocation
-
Multiple slaves can be configured to form a complete Profibus‑DP network
Application Scenarios: Profibus‑DP network master in PC‑based development environments, interface development for intelligent controllers acting as DP slaves, and industrial control systems bridging to Profibus‑DP field devices.
Working Principle: The card initiates cyclic data exchange with configured DP slaves; the companion configuration software downloads the network topology and slave parameters to the card.
Installation Requirements: Install into a PCI slot; connect the Profibus network via the onboard DB‑9 (or equivalent) Profibus connector; use the vendor configuration utility to scan and set slave parameters.
Usage Notes: Ensure proper Profibus bus termination at both ends; select the correct baud rate supported by all connected slaves.
