PROFIBUS Adapter Overview1-1
Startup Procedure1-2
Chapter Summary and What’s Next1-4
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
1Publication 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.

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.

Chapter Summary and What’s Next2-9
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.

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.
For more information on the Expansion Power Supply, cat. no.

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
