PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS DP-V1
A PROFIBUS DP/DP-V1segment, capable of providing up to 32 nodes, can be
directly connected to a PROFIBUS DP Interface unit type CI851/TP851, or a
PROFIBUS DP-V1 Interface unit, type CI854/TP854. This segment can be further
extended using repeater units.
PROFIBUS PA can be connected to PROFIBUS DP/DP-V1 via a gateway. For
further details refer to PROFIBUS documentation, available at the PROFIBUS
Internet site.
It is possible to connect the following I/O systems to the PROFIBUS DP and
PROFIBUS DP-V1:
• S800 I/O and/or S800L I/O via FCI – refer to S800 I/O documentation
(see Related Documentation on page 17).
• S200 I/O and/or S200L I/O via Fieldbus Adapter 200-APB12 – refer to S200
I/O documentation (see Related Documentation on page 17).
• Other I/O systems can also be connected to PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS
DP-V1. Refer to the relevant manufacturer’s documentation.
For further information on the various I/O systems, see Related Documentation on
page 17.
Note that the total number of I/O units to be configured within a controller may be
restricted, depending on the unit range parameter of your license.
