What is the PROFIBUS Adapter

Chapter
1

General

PROFIBUS Adapter Overview

This chapter describes the purpose of the POINT I/O PROFIBUS adapter, and what tasks have to be performed after installing the adapter.
For more information about: See page:
PROFIBUS Adapter Overview 1-1
Startup Procedure 1-2
Chapter Summary and What’s Next 1-4
The POINT I/O 1734-APB adapter resides on the PROFIBUS network and the POINT I/O backplane (PointBus) simultaneously. From this position, the adapter interfaces between the PROFIBUS network and the POINT I/O modules. The illustration below shows the adapter on the PROFIBUS network and the PointBus.
The adapter functions are:
PROFIBUS - adapter serves as a slave that exchanges I/O data
with a PROFIBUS master.
PointBus - the adapter serves as a master that communicates
with up to 63 POINT I/O modules
1 Publication 1734-UM005B-EN-P - June 2001
1-2 What is the PROFIBUS Adapter

Communicating through the Adapter

Output data is sent from the master across the PROFIBUS network to the 1734-APB adapter. The adapter automatically transfers the data across the PointBus backplane to the output modules.
Inputs from the input modules are collected by the PROFIBUS adapter via the backplane and sent across the PROFIBUS network to the master.

I/O Module Removal and Insertion Under Power

I/O modules can be removed under power from their positions in the backplane without interfering with the communication with the other modules. When reinserting the removed module, communication is automatically started up again if the following criteria is fulfilled:
1. The inserted module is the same type as the one removed.

Startup Procedure

2. If more than one module is removed, communication will not be
regained until all modules are inserted in their correct positions again.
Starting the adapter module consists of:
Installing the adapter in the system
setting the adapter node address
configuring the adapter for PROFIBUS communication
configuring the I/O modules for PointBus communication

Set the Adapter Node Address

Set the node address using the 2-position thumbwheel switch. Valid
settings range from 01 to 99. Use a pen to press either the + or – buttons to change the number.
Publication 1734-UM005B-EN-P - June 2001

What is the PROFIBUS Adapter 1-3

Configure the Adapter for PROFIBUS Communication

Install the GSD file you received into your configuration tool
add the adapter to your configuration
select the node address and baud rate
add I/O modules to the configuration
For more information, refer to Chapter 3 - Configuring the POINT I/O System.

Configure the I/O Modules for PointBus Communication

You must configure each I/O module to establish its actions on the PointBus. Each module has a set of parameters that can be set (i.e. Idle value, Fault value, etc.).
For more information, refer to Chapter 3 - Configuring the POINT I/O System.

1-4 What is the PROFIBUS Adapter

Diagnostic Indicators

Diagnostic indicators are located on the front panel of the adapter module. They show both normal operation and error conditions in your POINT I/O system. The indicators are:
Adapter status
PROFIBUS status
PointBus status
System power
Field power
Upon power-up, the adapter goes to an initialization state and performs a self-test (memory check, data memory clear, firmware integrity). The indicators also go through a self-test sequence. If a failure occurs, the adapter transitions to a faulted state and waits for reset (cycle power). Otherwise, the adapter begins monitoring the network (run state) for messages. Chapter 6 describes the diagnostic indicators and how to use them for troubleshooting.

Network Connector

Use the 9-pin D-shell connector (shown below) to connect your adapter to the PROFIBUS network.
Connections are provided for connecting the required 24V dc power to the front of the module.
Refer to Chapter 2 or the Installation Instructions (pub. no. 1734-IN014) you received with your adapter to learn how to install and wire the adapter.
This chapter provided a brief overview of the 1734-APB PROFIBUS adapter. Go to chapter 2 to learn how to install and wire your adapter.

Installing the PROFIBUS Adapter

Chapter

General

This chapter describes how to install and wire your adapter.
For information about: See page:

Wiring the PROFIBUS Adapter 2-6
Chapter Summary and What’s Next 2-9
When properly installed, POINT I/O is grounded through the DIN rail to chassis ground. Use zinc plated, yellow chromated steel DIN rail to assure proper grounding.
Other DIN rail material (such as aluminum, plastic, etc.) can corrode or oxidize and are poor conductors that may result in improper or intermittent platform grounding.
If you choose not to use zinc plated, yellow chromated steel DIN rail for your POINT I/O, periodically clean the DIN rail to prevent or lessen the effects of oxidation and corrosion.

2-2 Installing the PROFIBUS Adapter

Installing the PROFIBUS Adapter

To install the adapter on the DIN rail prior to installing other base units, proceed as follows.

1. Position the adapter vertically above the DIN rail.

2. Press down firmly to install the adapter on the DIN rail. (The
locking mechanism will lock the adapter to the DIN rail.)

ATTENTION
!
Do not discard the safety end cap. Use this end cap to cover the exposed interconnections on the last mounting base on the DIN rail. Failure to do so could result in equipment damage or injury from electric shock.

Installing a Replacement PROFIBUS Adapter to an Existing System

1. Remove the existing adapter from the DIN rail as follows:

A. Pull up on the removable terminal base (RTB) removal
handle (7) to remove the terminal block.

B. Loosen the screws holding the PROFIBUS network plug and
pull up to remove.

D. Use a small bladed screwdriver to rotate the DIN rail locking
screw (5) to a vertical position. This releases the locking mechanism.

E. Pull straight out to remove.

2. Set the desired node address on the replacement adapter.

3. Slide the safety end cap up and remove it from the replacement
adapter. This exposes the backplane and power connections.

4. Position the replacement adapter vertically above the DIN rail.
(Make certain the DIN rail lock is in the horizontal position.) Slide the adapter down, allowing the interlocking side pieces to engage the adjacent module.
Align the interlocking side pieces and slide adapter into place on the DIN rail.

5. Press firmly to seat the adapter (1) on the DIN rail. The adapter
locking mechanism will snap into place.
6. Insert the PROFIBUS network plug and tighten the holding
screws.
7. Insert the end opposite the handle into the base unit. This end
has a curved section that engages with the wiring base.
8. Rotate the terminal block into the wiring base until it locks itself
in place.

9. Replace the adjacent module in its base.

Module Power
The adapter supplies 5V logic power to POINT I/O modules by converting the applied 12/24V dc field power to PointBus 5V power.
You can connect up to 63 I/O modules to each adapter, and you can power up to 14 I/O modules from the adapter (with a maximum of 10A of field power). Add up the current requirements of the modules you want to use, and determine that they do not exceed the amperage limit of the 1734-APB. (Note: Total expansion up to 63 modules - 14 modules (with 75mA current draw) maximum with 1734-APB - add 1734-EP24DC modules for additional 14 modules (or less based on current requirements), up to 63 module maximum)
Installing the PROFIBUS Adapter 2-7
After the 14th (or last) module, you must insert an expansion power supply (cat. no. 1734-EP24DC) to power additional I/O modules.
Refer to the table below for various POINT I/O modules current requirements.

Chapter Summary and What’s Next 3-14
Since the POINT I/O adapter is compatible with any master system, you can use any configuration tool available on the market. Just import the GSD file included on the diskette you received with your shipment of the adapter into your configuration tool. The configuration tool uses the GSD file to help you set up the system. The file is in raw ASCII format and you can view it with any text editor.
Throughout this chapter, we use the Sycon configuration software from HMS Industrial Networks as an example of how to configure the adapter. For information on how to configure your system, refer to the documentation associated with your master and configuration tool.
You must follow these steps during configuration:

1. Install the GSD file

2. Add the adapter to your PROFIBUS network

3. Add I/O modules to the adapter

4. Configure the modules

5. Download to master system
