9 Commissioning Tools and Accessories
The AS-i circuit on the AS-i/PROFIBUS Gateway can be put into operation with the
comfortable Windows software "AS-i Control" Tools (art. no. 1203).
This software communicates with the AS-i/PROFIBUS gateway by means of a
PROFIBUS DP Mastersimulator DP V1 (art. no. 1257) or Serial PROFIBUS Ma-
ster (art. no 1258), which converts the RS 232-signals of the PC to PROFIBUS.
The AS-i master in IP65 needs an additional D-Sub data transmission cord for the
AS-i masters in IP65 (art. no. 1097).
