MODEL XCPB - PROFIBUS OPTION CARD FOR DATA STATION PLUS AND

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Both the Modular Controller Master (enhanced models) and Data Station

Plus contain a proprietary expansion port which provides a high speed, parallel

architecture that extends the functionality and flexibility of the platform. This

approach allows these products to evolve concurrently with the latest advances

in communications and standards, without sacrificing performance. This high

bandwidth channel has significantly greater throughput when compared to the

traditional (external) serial gateway approach.

The XCPB option card adds PROFIBUS DP connectivity to the series. This

allows a high-speed exchange of blocks of data, at data rates up to 12MBaud,

between the hosting Modular Controller or Data Station and a Master PLC or

PC on a PROFIBUS network. The DP suffix refers to "Decentralized

Periphery", which is used to describe distributed I/O devices connected via a

fast serial data link with a central controller.

The XCPB communication card is easily installed by removing the blank

expansion port cover of your Modular Controller or Data Station Plus, and

plugging the XCPB card into the expansion port. Configuration is simple using

Red Lion's free Crimson 2.0 software.

SAFETY SUMMARY

All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in the

literature or on equipment must be observed to ensure personal safety and to

prevent damage to either the instrument or equipment connected to it. If

equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection

provided by the equipment may be impaired.

Do not use the controller to directly command motors, valves, or other

actuators not equipped with safeguards. To do so can be potentially harmful to

persons or equipment in the event of a fault to the controller.

Read complete instructions prior to

installation and operation of the unit.
