FieldConnex® PROFINET/PROFIBUS-PA Gateway
CFC Driver Library for Siemens PCS 7
This CFC driver library enables simple connection of the FieldConnex PROFINET Power Hub to the control system PCS7 via PROFINET. This function for the gateway module HD2-GTR-4PA.PN automatically maps process, status and diagnostic data of all PROFIBUS PA instruments into PCS 7.
Engineering is transparent utilizing standard function blocks from the Advanced Process Library (APL) while at the same time implementing the popular behavior of PROFIBUS PA diagnostic data in PCS 7. This custom library supports driver wizard functionality and properly maps diagnostic data into SIMATIC WinCC. The documentation included is in English language.
The PCS 7 driver blocks ensure consistency of engineering and thus eliminate manual configuration, saving valuable time and engineering resources. License cost is fixed per plant reducing financial risk. The library is supported by Siemens via the multi-vendor device integration program, which includes driver maintenance and support including hotline with a five-year support contract.
