Commissioning - Honeywell BCU 460 Technical Information

BCM 400

16 .4 Commissioning

BCM . .B1
Fieldbus communication can be configured using the
engineering tool of the automation system.
All the device-specific parameters for the BCM..B1 are
saved in a device master data file (GSD)/electronic data
sheet (EDS): download from www.docuthek.com.
The BCM..B1 will automatically identify the baud rate –
max. 1.5 Mbit/s. The max. range per segment depends
on the baud rate:
Baud rate [kbit/s]
93.75 187.5
Range [m (ft)]
1200 1000
(3937) (3280)
The ranges can be increased by using repeaters. No
more than three repeaters should be connected in
series.
BCM . .B2/B3
Depending on the bus module version (BCM..B2 or
BCM..B3), fieldbus communication can be configured
using the engineering tool of the automation system or
using BCSoft. BCM..S1 can only be commissioned us-
ing BCSoft.
Check the code switch settings (001 to 125) on the
BCM for PROFIBUS communication between BCSoft
and the control unit.

Each code switch setting combination may only exist
once within the fieldbus system.
Each device name/network name may only be allocat-
ed once within the fieldbus system.
