About This Product
PROFIBUS is an open digital communication system supporting a wide range of fast, time-
critical applications.
PROFIBUS-DP (Decentral Periphery) is one of the three PROFIBUS variants. DP is
dedicated to fast data communication between systems and peripherals at a field level. This
PROFIBUS-DP Option connects a drive to a field network using the PROFIBUS-DP
protocol.
PROFIBUS-DP is included into the European Fieldbus Standard EN 50170.
The network is primarily used in process and factory automation.
By installing the PROFIBUS-DP Option to a drive, it is possible to do the followings from a
PROFIBUS-DP master device:
• operate the drive
• monitor the operation status of the drive
• change parameter settings
