  • Page 6: Preface

    This manual describes the installation, operation, and diagnostics of the ProSoft ILX56-PBS PROFIBUS DPV0/DPV1 Slave module. The ILX56-PBS slots into a 1756 ControlLogix backplane and allows the user to interface PROFIBUS DP to a ControlLogix controller via the ControlLogix backplane.

  • Page 7: Features

    PROFIBUS Slave (ILX56-PBS) The ILX56-PBS can also be configured to emulate up to 10 PROFIBUS slave devices. Each slave device emulated by the ILX56-PBS can be configured to provide DPV0 data exchange with a PROFIBUS Master on the network.

  • Page 8: Installation

    Installation Module Layout The ILX56-PBS has one RS485 PROFIBUS DP port at the front of the module. NOTE: All required power for the module is derived from the ControlLogix backplane. The module provides 3 diagnostic LEDs and a 4-character alpha-numeric LED display that provides the mode and status of the module.
