FlexArmor PROFIBUS Adapter Module
Catalog Number 1798-APB
43231
The FlexArmor PROFIBUS communication adapter (Cat. No.
1798-APB) provides the electrical interface between the network and
the FlexArmor Baseplate. You must have a Field Termination Plug
(1798-PFTP1) installed to provide the cabling interface to your
network. The Field Termination Plug also provides converter
functionality to power all of the system side electronics for the
adapter itself and the I/O modules.
Package Contents
Your package contains:
• 1 FlexArmor PROFIBUS adapter module (1798-APB)
• installation instructions
(Note: Baseplates and other components are ordered and shipped
separately.)

Identifies information that is critical for
successful application and understanding of the
product.
Environment and Enclosure
This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution
Degree 2 industrial environment, in overvoltage
Category II applications (as defined in IEC
publication 60664-1), at altitudes up to 2000 meters
without derating.
This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A
industrial equipment according to IEC/CISPR
Publication 11. Without appropriate precautions,
there may be potential difficulties ensuring
electromagnetic compatibility in other
environments due to conducted as well as radiated
disturbance.
This equipment is supplied as "enclosed"
equipment. It should not require additional system
enclosure when used in locations consistent with
the enclosure type ratings stated in the
Specifications section of this publication.
Subsequent sections of this publication may
contain additional information regarding specific
enclosure type ratings, beyond what this product
provides, that are required to comply with certain
product safety certifications.
See NEMA Standards publication 250 and IEC
publication 60529, as applicable, for explanations
of the degrees of protection provided by different
types of enclosure. Also, see the appropriate
sections in this publication, as well as the
Allen-Bradley publication 1770-4.1 ("Industrial
Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines"),
for additional installation requirements pertaining
to this equipment.

• For software configuration information, refer to the FlexArmor
User Manual, publication no. 1798-UM002.
• For installation instructions for the 1798-PFTP1, see
publication no. 1798-IN005.
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge
This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic
discharge, which can cause internal damage and
affect normal operation. Follow these guidelines
when you handle this equipment:
• Touch a grounded object to discharge
potential static.
• Wear an approved grounding wriststrap.
• Do not touch connectors or pins on
component boards.
• Do not touch circuit components inside the
equipment.
• If available, use a static-safe workstation.
• When not in use, store the equipment in
appropriate static-safe packaging.
Set the Node Address on the PROFIBUS Adapter
To set the station address, adjust the switches on the back of
the adapter. The two switches are most significant digit (MSD)
and least significant digit (LSD). The switches can be set
between 00 and 99.
The rotary switches are read at adapter power-up only.
Example: Node
Address is set at 26

Install Your FlexArmor PROFIBUS Adapter Module
To install the PROFIBUS Adapter Module:
1. Hold the adapter at an angle and engage the top of the
adapter in the indention on the rear of the Baseplate.
The adapter module must be installed only in the
adapter slot, the second position from the left.
2. Press the module down flush with the panel until the locking
lever locks.
3. Screw down the module retaining screws to ensure IP67
compliance.
Torque the screws to 0.5-0.7 Nm. (4.43 - 6.2 inch
pounds).
I/O modules can be installed in any slot location
to the right of the adapter module. The adapter is
capable of addressing up to eight I/O modules.
Communicate with Your FlexArmor System
Use PROFIBUS software to configure your FlexArmor system.
