1. Product description

1.1 Introduction

ProfiHub B2FO2+ is an advanced, flexible and robust network component for PROFIBUS DP installations, to
create fiber optic backbone structures and long multi-device star/tree segments.

PROFIBUS DP is a high speed communication bus that must comply with strict rules concerning spur lines,
because of possible reflections that could lead to communication disturbances. If spur lines or star segments
are required, costly investments in repeaters have to be done.

The innovative ProfiHub B2FO2+ is the perfect component for such applications. It is an economic solution to
realise reliable spur lines in high speed DP networks. They have the functionality of 2 galvanic isolated
transparent repeaters and an optical link module in one device. This allows network structures with extended
spur lines that individually can handle a maximum of 31 devices and a length equal to the main bus. The
ProfiHub B2FO2+ refreshes a received message on one Channel and transfers it to all the other Channels
(chicken foot topology).

Because the ProfiHub B2FO2+ creates isolated segments, the devices can now be removed and added during
operation. Also most electrical bus problems and EMC disturbances in a spur do not spread to the other
segments. The intelligent logic and isolation circuits of the ProfiHubs do not change the bit width. This means
the ProfiHubs do not have limitations in serial placement. The logic also detects the transmission speed
automatically.

To assist the installation work, termination is integrated and can be switched on/off. The grounding concept is
also selectable: direct or capacitive grounding. The ProfiHubs are powered by a 12 to 24 DC Voltage. For
troubleshooting, maintenance and commissioning the ProfiHubs are equipped with LEDs on the outside, which
indicate the status of each Channel (Data and Error).

1.5 Channel Structure

Each copper channel is electrically isolated and internally connected to the transparent intelligent backbone.
The termination is switchable and powered by the ProfiHub. The shielding of the PROFIBUS cable can be
directly grounded or indirectly grounded (see paragraph 1.6).

Fig. 5 - Channel structure

1.6 Grounding System

The ProfiHub B2FO2+ can be grounded by 3 methods:

1) Direct grounding on the Ground Rail

2) Indirect grounding (through a capacitor)

3) Combination of direct and indirect.

The power supply must be grounded directly on the Ground Rail. The shielding of the PROFIBUS cables can be
directly or indirectly grounded. If you do not want to ground all or some cables to the common ground, i.e.
compensating current, the cable shielding must be connected to pin ‘I’ which stands for Indirect grounding. A
capacitor with a parallel high value resistor will separate the 2 potentials (see Fig. 5), ensuring protection of
the signal against non-DC disturbances.

If by accident on 1 channel the Direct Grounding is connected with the Indirect Grounding, the connection to
the Direct Grounding bypasses the capacitor in the Indirect Ground connection. The current on the shield will
flow to Direct Ground.

1.12 The red Error LED

The red error LEDs will blink shortly if a corrupt message enters the ProfiHub. More specifically, this can be a
Parity error (the parity checksum of the byte is incorrect) or a Framing error (the FCS byte is different than the
real message). It is necessary to investigate further with an oscilloscope to find out what the problem is. This
can easily be done with ProfiTrace.

Another reason for the red error LED is a problem in the redundant cabling (if the ProfiHub is set to redundant).
If the redundant line is fixed, press the ‘Alarm Reset’ button.

It can also be that the baudrate is not locked (no PROFIBUS master on the bus) or the baudrate was set
manually and incorrectly with the rotary switch.

2. Installation Instructions ProfiHub B2FO2+

2.1 Location

The ProfiHub B2FO2+ can be installed everywhere in a non-hazardous area that complies with IP 20 (DIN 40

050) and the specified temperature range of -25 to +70o Celsius or -13 to +158° Fahrenheit.

2.2 Position

The ProfiHub B2FO2+ can be installed in every position, but it is recommended to install it with the cables
pointing down. In this position it is also easier to read the status LEDs.

2.3 Mounting

The ProfiHub B2FO2+ can be mounted on 35 mm DIN-rail with a minimum width of 130 mm. Mounting
brackets are available for mounting the B2FO2+ directly on a wall.

The supplied rubber studs need to be placed on the back of the housing of the ProfiHub B2FO2+ for extra
fixation. This is to prevent the product to potentially slide off the DIN-rail. See Fig. 9 for an example.

2.4 Power Supply

The two 2-pin screw type power connectors are located on the left of the ProfiHub B2FO2+ (Fig. 10).
1 = + (left)
2 = - (right)

Fig. 10 - Power connectors and LEDs

Both power connectors are linked 1-on-1 to the internal power supply of the B2FO2+. If one power supply fails,
the other takes over without delay time. When redundancy is not required, it is sufficient to use one power
connector. Please note that when using only one power supply, a voltage of max. 0.25 V will exist on the other
unconnected power connector, as shown in Fig. 11.

If only one power supply is used, the alarm contact is closed. If two power sources are connected, the contact
is open. As soon as one of the power supplies fails, the contact will close and the Power Indicator LED will blink.

Fig. 11 - Maximum voltage on unconnected Power Connector

The power supply must comply with the following specifications:

 Limited Power Source (LPS) or NEC Class 2 or CEC Class 2
 Voltage: 12 - 24 VDC
 Current: min 275 mA
 Wire diameter: < 2.5 mm2

Procedure

To connect the 24V supply to the 2-pin screw-type terminal, proceed as follows:

 Strip the insulation from the cable or the conductors for the 24V power supply.
 Add cable crimp terminals/wire ferrules to the conductors.
 Secure the crimp terminals in the screw-type terminal.

To connect the power supply, you need a 3 mm screwdriver.

ProfiHub B2FO2+ User Manual – v2.1.0 | 29 December 2016 | © PROCENTEC 14/38

Testing:

If the power is switched on it can be diagnosed by the following indicators:

 LEDs should be blinking in a circular animation for a short time.
 The POWER LED of the respective power connector (1, 2 or both) is ON.
 The READY LED is ON or Blinking, depending on baud rate lock.

2.5 Grounding of the power



It is recommended to use a power supply with a ground lead (3-wire). Connect the ground lead of the
power lead to the Ground Rail of the ProfiHub B2FO2+. Connect the Ground Rail to the common ground with a
separate ground lead. See Fig. 12 for an example.

Fig. 12 - Connection to Ground Rail

2.6 Alarm contact

The ProfiHub B2FO2+ features a potential-free relay contact. This alarm contact can be used to monitor the
power supplies. Example applications are: Connect a LED tower, alarm buzzer, SMS server or use it as a digital
signal for the PLC.

If only one power supply is used, the alarm contact is closed. If two power sources are connected, the contact
is open. As soon as one of the power supplies fails, the contact will close and the Power Indicator LED will blink.

In the case of an interrupted power supply you can reset the contact by pressing the ‘Reset’ button. The
contact will open and the LEDs will stop blinking.

The maximum power to be connected to the alarm contact is 24 VDC. The maximum switching current is 500
mA.

2.7 Fiber optic backbone

Use the FO channels to create a fiber optic backbone to other ProfiHubs with FO channels or to ComBricks.
Connect the DP copper cable from the master or DCS to one of the two copper channels (Fig. 13).

Fig. 13 - PROFIBUS DP backbone connection

Pin layout of the screw terminals:

Pin “A”: Green wire
Pin “B”: Red wire
Pin “I”: Indirect cable shielding

Note: Connecting the Indirect cable shielding is not required when the ground clips are used.

Testing

If a channel recognizes valid PROFIBUS messages from one or more connected devices, the RXOK LED of the
corresponding channel should be blinking.

2.8 Calculating the delay time

Fiber optic applications require a delay time calculation to adjust the MinTSDR and Slottime (Tslot)
busparameters in the configuration of the master(s). The B2FO2+ complies with the following formulas:

Connectors

Channel

Connectors

Example: 1.5 Mbps, 3 km FO cable, 2 FO modules

FO cable delay =(5 ∗ 10

)

× FO cable length × Baudrate

FO cable delay = 0.000005 × 3 × 1500000 = 22.5 TBit

The delay of the module itself is 1.8. This results in the following formula for Tdelay:
Tdelay = (FO cable delay +(2 × Module delay time))× 2
Tdelay = (22.5 +(2 × 1.8)) × 2 = 𝟓𝟐. 𝟐 Tbit

This is the delay between 2 fiber optic interfaces.

Outcome: Make sure the MinTSDR is at least 52.2 bittimes. Change the Max TSDR and Tslot to
appropriate numbers accordingly.

2.9 Spur Segments

Connect the spur segments to the connectors of Channel 1 and 2 (Fig. 14). The second method is to place a
PROFIBUS standardized plug on the DB9 connector of the specific Channel.

Fig. 14 - PROFIBUS DP spur connectors

Pin layout of the screw terminals:

Pin “A”: Green wire
Pin “B”: Red wire
Pin “I”: Indirect cable shielding, for reducing EMC and noise in demanding areas

Note: Connecting the Indirect cable shielding is not required when the ground clips are used.

Testing

If a Channel recognizes valid PROFIBUS messages from one or more connected devices, the RXOK LED of the
Channel should be blinking.

2.10 Termination

The termination of the Channels have been set to ON by default, because it is assumed that the new segment is
started at the ProfiHub (Fig. 15).



When the DB9 connector is used and the cable starts at the ProfiHub, it is recommended to use the
termination on the DB9 plug and NOT the ProfiHub. This way, the connector can be removed while maintaining
termination on the bus.

2.11 Baudrate switch

The ProfiHub B2FO2+ recognizes the transmission speed by default. If it is required that the ProfiHub B2FO2+ is
locked to a certain transmission speed, the baudrate switch should be set to the required value (Fig. 16).

To set the rotary switch, use a 3 mm screwdriver.

ProfiHub B2FO2+ User Manual – v2.1.0 | 29 December 2016 | © PROCENTEC 18/38

Fig. 16 - Baudrate speed switch

Switch values:

0 = Normal repeating, Auto detect (default)
1 = 9.6 kbps
2 = 19.2 kbps
3 = 45.45 kbps
4 = 93.75 kbps
5 = 187.5 kbps
6 = 500 kbps
7 = 1500 kbps
8 = 3000 kbps
9 = 6000 kbps
A = 12000 kbps
B = Robust repeating, Auto detect
C = Robust repeating, redundancy on copper channel 1 and 2
D .. F = Reserved for future use

Please note that the position of the rotary switch is only sampled during start-up. Changing the position of the
switch will not have effect during operation.

The auto baudrate detect feature will search for the correct baud rate within 10 seconds of receiving the first
telegram. This baud rate lock will be lost after 50 seconds of incorrect or no message reception.

2.12 Robust Repeating mode

The B2FO2+ has two repeating modes: normal (default) and Robust Repeating (rotary switch setting B or C). In
normal mode the bits are transferred directly on the other channel with a minimal delay (see Delay Times in
the Technical Data chapter). In Robust mode, the first byte is checked to verify if the following bits are a real
PROFIBUS message. If the byte is illegal, the message will not be transferred to the other channel. This helps
network stability in EMC sensitive environments.

ATTENTION:

Using the ProfiHub B2FO2+ in Robust Repeating mode causes a delay in processing the telegrams. It is required
to increase the default MinTSDR in the PLC busparameters slightly. Recommended is to increase the MinTSDR
with a value according to the Delay Time table, column ‘Robust Mode’, described in the Technical Data chapter.
Generally a MinTSDR of 25 is sufficient. If long fiber optic cables or many optical link modules (OLMs) are used,
check paragraph 2.8 for an example of the MinTSDR calculation.

2.13 Channel Redundancy

To use the Redundancy option of the B2FO2+, set the rotary switch to the ‘C’ position. This enables the two
copper channels (1 and 2) to be one redundant path to another B2FO2+, a B2+, to a redundant ComBricks, or
to any other supporting product. See Fig. 17 for an example.

COMbricks

ProfiHub B2+FO2

Fig. 17 - Redundant path between multiple ProfiHubs

The telegrams are transferred onto both redundant channels. The logic inside the ProfiHub determines which
telegram is used to be transferred onto the other channels. A message received by a redundant channel is
repeated on all other channels, except the other redundant channel. A message received by a normal channel
is repeated on all other channels.

When one redundant cable breaks, the other cable ensures safe delivery of the telegram. In this event the
built-in alarm contact will close. The red ‘ERROR’ LED will blink with an interval of 100ms. When the redundant
path is fixed, press the ‘ALARM RESET’ pushbutton to reset the alarm.

ATTENTION:
Using the ProfiHub B2FO2+ in Redundancy mode causes a delay in processing the telegrams. It is required to
increase the default MinTSDR in the PLC busparameters slightly. Recommended is to increase the MinTSDR

with a value according to the Delay Time table, column ‘Robust Mode’, described in the Technical Data chapter.

Generally a MinTSDR of 25 is sufficient. If long fiber optic cables or many optical link modules (OLMs) are used,
check paragraph 2.8 for an example of the MinTSDR calculation.

ProfiHub B2FO2+ User Manual – v2.1.0 | 29 December 2016 | © PROCENTEC 29/38

Address

Unique number of a device connected to the network. With PROFIBUS this can
be 0 to 126. 127 is a broadcast address.

Analyzer

Software tool to observe the protocol traffic. Combi-Analyzers can also inspect
the signal quality.
Other term: Bus Monitor.
Example: ProfiTrace.

Backbone

The primary bus cable. Most of the time only the control systems, ProfiHubs and
fiber optic couplers are connected to this cable. The field devices are connected
behind the ProfiHubs and fiber optic couplers.

Bit Time (Tbit)

The bit time Tbit is the time, which elapses during the transmission of one bit. It
depends on the baudrate and is calculated as follows Tbit = 1 (bit) / baudrate
(bps).
Examples:
12 Mbps --> Tbit = 83 ns

1.5 Mbps --> Tbit = 667 ns

Busparameters

Settings that define the timing behaviour on the bus. They are defined in the
master. Examples: Tslot, MaxTSDR.

C

Capacitance.

DGND

Digital Ground.

DIN

German Institute for Standardization (www.din.de).

DP-V0

DP-V0 is the basic stage of the PROFIBUS DP communication protocol. DP-V0
devices (master and slaves) perform the following basic functionalities:

- Cyclic exchange of I/O data between controlling and slave devices

- Device, Identifier (module) and Channel related Diagnosis

- Parameterization of DP-slaves

- Configuration of DP-slaves

DP-V1

DP-V1 is the first stage of extension of PROFIBUS DP after DP-V0. DP-V1 devices
shall comply with the following features:

- Device related diagnosis is replaced by status and alarms.

- The first three octets of the user parameterization data are now standardized

- Optionally these devices may support:

- Acyclic communication (MS1, MS2)

- If alarms are used, MS1 shall be supported

6. Glossary

ProfiHub B2FO2+ User Manual – v2.1.0 | 29 December 2016 | © PROCENTEC 30/38

DP-V2

DP-V2 is the second stage of extension of PROFIBUS DP after DP-V1. DP-V2
devices shall comply with the following features:

- Data Exchange Broadcast (DxB) for slave to slave communication
(publisher/subscriber principle).

- Isochronous Mode (time tick synchronized operating slaves, e.g. drives)

- Up- and/or download of Load Region Data (domains)

- Clock Control (synchronization within slaves) and Time Stamping

- Redundancy.

Electromagnetic
Compatibility

See EMC.

EMC

The extent to which an electric or electronic device will tolerate electrical
interference from other equipment (immunity), and will interfere with other
equipment. Within the European Community as well as in other countries it is
regulated by law that electric and electronic components and equipment comply
with basic standards such as IEC 61000-6-2 or IEC 61326 or corresponding
individual product standards.

Hub

A Hub refreshes a signal and passes the information on to all nodes which are
connected to the Hub. Data frames which were received on one port are
transferred to all the other ports (chicken foot topology).

MPI

Multiple Protocol Interface. Protocol defined by Siemens which uses the layer 1
and 2 of PROFIBUS (FDL).

PCB

Printed Circuit Board.

PROFIBUS DP

Acronym for "PROFIBUS for Decentralized Peripherals". Specification of an open
fieldbus system with the following characteristics:

- Polling master-slave-system (cyclic communications, MS0)

- Flying masters with robin round token passing coordination (MM)

- Connection based (MS1) and connectionless (MS2, MS3) acyclic communication
between masters and slaves
Options (e.g.):

- Data exchange broadcast (DXB), i.e. slave to slaves communication

- Isochronous mode of slaves

- Clock synchronization

- Redundancy
PROFIBUS DP is standardized within IEC 61158 and IEC 61784, communication
profile families 3/1 and 3/2
The term "PROFIBUS DP" also is a synonym for the RS485 based deployments
within factory automation.

Repeater

Active physical layer device that receives and retransmits all signals over a
different port to increase the distance and number of devices for which signals
can be correctly transferred for a given medium.

Spur line

A cable attached to a bus segment with a T-connection . Spurs are not
recommended with PROFIBUS DP. They are prohibited with 12 Mbps and
PROFIsafe operations. German term is "Stichleitung".

Stub line

See Spur line.

ProfiHub B2FO2+ User Manual – v2.1.0 | 29 December 2016 | © PROCENTEC 31/38

Tbit

See Bit Time.

Termination

A (powered) resistor network at both ends of a segment to prevent reflections
(with PROFIBUS DP the termination must be powered).

Topology

In a communications network, the pattern of interconnection between network
nodes; e.g. bus, ring, star configuration.

PI

PROFIBUS International.
The International PROFIBUS Organization based in Karlsruhe.

PNO

PROFIBUS Nutzer Organization.
The German PROFIBUS Organization based in Karlsruhe.

Drop cable

See Spur line.

Reflection

Part of the original signal that is transmitted back along the cable. It corrupts the
original signal.
