Fieldbus Communications Gateway Module
Module Description
The Communications Gateway Module (CGM) provides
a control link between the PCF system and a selected
fieldbus. This provides the means for remote monitoring
and control by external automation systems.
See Automation Control (Normal Operation), page
41, for details on controlling the PCF system through the
Gateway module.
Data Exchange
Data is available by block transfer, cyclic transfer,
change of state triggered, and explicit access to individ-
ual attributes as defined by the fieldbus specification.
Refer to Appendix C - Communications Gateway
Module (CGM) Connection Details, page 120, for
details about PCF/fieldbus data map.
NOTE: The following system network configuration
files are available at www.graco.com
EDS file: DeviceNet or EtherNet/IP fieldbus net-
works
GSD file: PROFIBUS fieldbus networks
SDML: PROFINET fieldbus networks

Description
Installation
NOTE: The following installation instructions
assume the person implementing the PCF fieldbus
connection fully comprehends the fieldbus being
used. Ensure the installer understands the automa-
tion controller communication architecture and the
fieldbus being used.
1. Install interface cables between the PCF system
and the automation controller per the fieldbus stan-
dards. Refer to Appendix C - Communications
Gateway Module (CGM) Connection Details,
page 111, for details.
2. Turn on system power. Navigate to the Gateway
setup screens and ensure the data map name is:
PCF standard. Refer to Appendix A - Advanced
Display Module (ADM), page 89, for details about
the data map.
3. Set the PCF Gateway configuration values as
required to interface with automation controller.
Refer to Appendix A - Advanced Display Module
(ADM), page 89, for details about the configuration
settings.
4. Retrieve the appropriate fieldbus configuration file
for the fieldbus being used from www.graco.com.
5. Install the configuration file on the automation con-
troller (fieldbus master). Configure it for communica-
tion with the PCF Gateway (fieldbus slave).
6. Establish communication between the automation
controller and the PCF Gateway to confirm the suc-
cessful configuration of the hardware and data.
NOTE: Use the ADM screens for troubleshooting
fieldbus data communication problems. Refer to
Appendix A - Advanced Display Module (ADM), page
89, for details. Also, use the LED status indicators
on the PCF Gateway module for fieldbus status
information. Refer to Appendix C - Communications
Gateway Module (CGM) Connection Details, page
111, for details.
