9.2.8.5 Notes on the exchange of an ibaBM-SiLink bus monitor
A bus monitor ibaBM-SiLink can be replaced in a SINAMICS Link by ibaBM-PN in a
function-compatible way. The following conditions apply:
The installation location within the SINAMICS Link is not relevant. The TAP inter-
face must always be integrated in a linear structure.
The combination of SINAMICS Link cables with PROFINET cables is not permitted
for technical reasons.
The "Sniffer SiLink" modules in the ibaBM-PN device module must be newly configured
in ibaPDA. Proceed as follows:
Configuration in ibaPDA
1. Add a "Sniffer SiLink" module for each controller to be acquired.
2. Copy the device number from the “General” tab of the ibaBM SiLink module to the
“General” tab of the “Sniffer SiLink” module of ibaBM-PN.

3. In the "Analog" tab, multiply the address from the ibaBM-SiLink device module by 2
and enter the address into the "Analog" tab of the “Sniffer SiLink” module.
