X5PROFI01 Profibus Communication Option Boardvacon 3
Installing the X5PROFI01
Communication Option Board
Introduction
The X5 frequency converters can be connected to Profibus DP using an option board, the X5PROFI01. The converter
can then be controlled, monitored, and programmed from the host system.
Profibus is an vendor-independent, open fieldbus standard for a wide range of applications in manufacturing,
process and building automation. Vendor independence and openness are guaranteed by the Profibus standard EN
50 170. With Profibus, devices made by different manufacturers can communicate without special interface
adjustments. Profibus is useful for both high-speed, time-critical data transmission, and for extensive complex
communication tasks. The Profibus family consists of three compatible versions:
Profibus DP
Optimized for high-speed and inexpensive connection, the Profibus DP version is designed especially for
communication between automation control systems and distributed I/O at the device level. Profibus DP can be used
to replace parallel signal transmission with 24 V or 0 to 20 mA. Profibus DP is the version of Profibus used in the X5
drive units.
Profibus PA
Profibus PA is designed especially for process automation. It permits sensors and actuators to be connected on one
common bus line even in intrinsically safe areas. Profibus PA permits data communication and power over the bus
using a two-wire technology according to international standard IEC 1158-2.
Profibus FMS
Profibus FMS is the general-purpose solution for communication tasks at the cell level. Power FMS services open
up a wide range of applications and provide great flexibility. Profibus FMS can also be used for extensive and
complex communication tasks.
Profibus specifies the technical and functional characteristics of a serial fieldbus system with which decentralized
digital controllers can be networked together from the field level to the cell level. Profibus distinguishes between
master and slave devices.
Master devices determine the data communication on the bus. A master can send messages without an external
request when it holds the bus access rights (the token). Masters are also called “active stations” in the Profibus
protocol.
Slave devices are peripheral devices. Typical slave devices include input/output devices, valves, drives, and
measuring transmitteres. They do not have bus access rights and they can only acknowledge received messages or
send messages to the master when requested to do so. Slaves are also called “passive stations.”
Profiles
The Profibus protocol defines how user data is to be transmitted between the stations over the bus. User data is not
evaluated by the Profibus transmission protocol. The meaning is specified in the profiles. In addition, the profiles
specify how Profibus is to be used in the application area.

NOTE: This network communication interface included with the X5 option is warranted
to meet the core specifications for Profibus. Many existing software applications are
custom-engineered and may contain “brand-specific” communication that will not be
supported by the X5 without modification. No guarantee of compatibility with any
specific system is made. The user is responsible for any interface software and
hardware needed to make an application function.

Installation Procedures
!
WARNING
SENSITIVE EQUIPMENT
This assembly contains static-sensitive components. It should be handled only by a static-safe installer,
using a grounded wrist strap.
Failure to observe this precaution may cause premature equipment failure.
!
DANGER
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE
• Disconnect all power before servicing a drive unit or its components. WAIT 5 MINUTES until the DC
bus capacitors discharge.
• Ensure that any other power sources that may feed control logic have been disconnected.
• DO NOT short across DC bus capacitors or touch unshielded components or terminal strip screw
connections with voltage present.
• Install all covers before applying power or starting and stopping the drive.
• The user is responsible for conforming to all applicable code requirements with respect to grounding
all equipment.
• Many parts in a drive, including printed circuit boards, operate at line voltage. DO NOT TOUCH. Use
only electrically-insulated tools.
Before servicing any drive.
• Disconnect all power.
• Place a “DO NOT TURN ON” label on the drive disconnect.
• Lock the disconnect in the open position.
Failure to observe these precautions will cause shock or burn, resulting in severe personal injury
or death.

The option board is installed just above the control board in all configurations (a Size 1 unit is shown in Figure 3 for
reference). The screws labeled “A” must be removed from the X5; those labeled “B” need only to be loosened to
accept the board slot.

Next, install the flexible circuit to finish the interface to the control board. (Refer to Figure 4.) To install the flexible
ci rcuit, fi rst remove t he keypad frame (necessary in this size unit). The frame is attached with t wo screws in opposite
corners; the screws thread into fasteners in the plastic assembly. After the flexible circuit is installed, replace these
screws, limiting the installation torque to 12 in-lbs..

The option kit includes five 115 VAC inputs, two additional programmable relays, and an encoder interface. The
details of the terminals on the board related to the 115 VAC interface and the encoder are shown in Table 1 on
