Figure 1.2 BD525 communication board

 

 

The BD525 PROFIBUS-DP communication boards supports one channel for master and one channel for salve. However, depending on necessities, the board can be delivered only with a master channel or a slave channel assembled.

 

In case of PROFIBUS-DP Master, SYCON.net, which is separate software for setting the network, is needed. SYCON.net and BD525 is connected through the USB. 

 

In case of PROFIBUS-DP Slave, there is no need for separate software. It is possible to set the station numbers as well as the input and output data size through a teaching pendant.
