The S100 Profibus-DP Communication Module is designed to connect an LSLV-S100 inverter to a Profibus network, enabling control and monitoring of the inverter via a PLC sequence program or a Profibus Master Module. This integration aims to reduce installation costs by allowing multiple inverters to be managed through a single communication line, simplifying wiring, and improving maintenance efficiency. It also facilitates factory automation by enabling mixed-use development of auxiliary devices with PLCs and other control systems like PCs for inverter control.

Safety Precautions:

The manual emphasizes strict adherence to safety instructions to prevent accidents and hazards. Safety precautions are categorized as "WARNING" and "CAUTION." A "WARNING" indicates that improper operation may lead to serious personal injury or death, while a "CAUTION" signifies that improper operation may result in slight to medium personal injury or property damage. Illustrations on the product and in the manual, such as an exclamation mark in a triangle, indicate potential danger, urging users to read messages and follow instructions carefully. A specific illustration, an exclamation mark with a lightning bolt, highlights the danger of electric shock. Users are advised to keep the operating instructions handy for quick reference and to read them thoroughly to understand the S100 series functions for proper use.

Installation and Handling:

When handling the communication module, caution is advised due to its CMOS components, as static electricity can cause product malfunction. It is crucial to turn off the inverter power before changing the communication cable to prevent damage to the module or communication errors. The communication module connector must be inserted precisely into the inverter to avoid damage or communication errors. Before setting up parameters, the parameter unit should be checked to prevent communication errors.

For installation, it is critical to connect the communication network only after the power supply is off. If the Profibus-DP communication module is removed or installed while the power is powered, the S100 inverter could be severely damaged. The module should only be handled after the power supply is completely discharged. The installation process involves unfastening the front cover fixing bolt, removing the front cover and I/O cover (1, 2) from a dedicated inverter, removing the keypad (3), unfastening a screw from the I/O board, fastening the prepared brass bar (4), mounting the Profibus-DP communication module, fastening the removed screw (6) and the included screw (7), installing the keypad (8) and the communication module cover (9) in order, and finally, installing the front cover (10).

Technical Specifications:

The Profibus-DP Communication Module operates as a Profibus DP Slave. It supports Auto Baud rate Detect, Synchronization Mode, and Freeze Mode. It has a maximum input length of 8 words and a maximum output length of 8 words. The module supports a wide range of baud rates: 9.6K, 19.2K, 93.75K, 187.5K, 500K, 1.5M, 3M, 6M, and 12M. It is a modular station, supporting 2 modules. The maximum number of connectable nodes is 32 without a repeater, including the master module. The module features 3 LEDs (ONLINE, ERR, and CPU) for status indication and uses a 9Pin D-sub for its communication connector.

Profibus Connector Specifications:

The Profibus connector is a 9-pin D-sub type. The pins and their signals/descriptions are as follows:

Status Diagnosis and LED Indication:

The Profibus DP Module uses three LEDs (CPU, ERROR, ONLINE) for troubleshooting and diagnostics.

• CPU LED (Green): Turns "On" when the communication module is installed and powered. If "OFF," it indicates a failure in power supply, potentially due to an unplugged power supply, contact failure between the inverter and Profibus-DP module, or inverter malfunction. Troubleshooting involves checking the power supply, inverter, and connections. If "Blinking every second," it indicates normal operation.
• ERR LED (Red): Turns "On" if there is something wrong with the Profibus-DP communication module. If "Blinking every second (with CPU LED together)," it indicates that communication is interrupted or not available between the inverter and the communication module. Troubleshooting involves checking the inverter's malfunction and the connection between the Profibus-DP module and the inverter connector.
• ONLINE LED (Green): Always turns "On" when the Profibus-DP communication module is in an on-line status. If "OFF" (Off-Line), it can indicate several issues:
  • CONFIG ERROR (Blinking every second, contrary to CPU LED): Master's configuration data differs from the Profibus-DP module's configuration. Troubleshooting requires checking configuration data on the Master and the internal configuration data at the inverter.
  • Master doesn't work for communication in the network: Start communication from the Master.
  • The connection of connector has a problem: Check the connection between the pin number of the connector and the termination resistor.
  • There is no master in the network: It's possible there is no designated master or the master has a problem.
  • Wrong setting of station ID: Check if the station ID set in the designated Profibus communication module is the same as the station ID set from the inverter's keypad in the Configuration tool, and ensure the station ID is unique in the network.
  • Network Configuration Fault: Check if the length limit of the segment is exceeded, if connections with the segment are over 32 stations (including a repeater), or if connections with the network are over 126 stations (including a repeater).
• When all Network, Station, Parameterization, and Configuration are normal, the ONLINE LED will be "ON" (On-Line).

Inverter Parameters:

The module uses several parameters for configuration and status:

• CM-06 (FBus S/W Ver): Indicates the version of the Profibus-DP communication module.
• CM-07 (FBus ID): Sets the station ID of the Profibus-DP module (range 1-125). This ID must be unique in the network and cannot be duplicated.
• CM-09 (FBus Led): Shows the ON/OFF data of the LEDs on the Profibus-DP communication module.
• CM-30 (ParaStatus Num): Sets the number of status parameters to be used (range 0-8).
• CM-31 to CM-38 (Para Status 1-8): Set the address of status information (0x0000 to 0xFFFF) that will be sent to the Master. These are set in the form of inverter addresses, including common inverter area and keypad parameters. Keypad parameter addresses are saved as 0x1000 + ('Group number' x 0x100) + ('Code number'). For example, DI Status No. 90 in 'In Group' (Group 5) would be 0x1000 + 0x05 x 0x100 + 0x5A (Dec 90) = 0x155A.
• CM-50 (Para Ctrl Num): Sets the number of control parameters to be used (range 0-8).
• CM-51 to CM-58 (Para Control 1-8): Set the control address (0x0000 to 0xFFFF) controlled by the Profibus DP Master. Similar to Para Status, these are set in the form of inverter addresses. For example, Acc Time No. 3 in 'dr Group' (Group 1) would be 0x01 x 0x1000 + 0x01 x 0x100 + 0x03 (Dec 3) = 0x1103.
• CM-94 (Comm Update): Used to update keypad parameters related to communication. Setting this to '1' applies changes to Station ID, the number of Para Status, and the number of Para Control to the Profibus-DP Communication module.

GSD File:

The GSD file contains information about the Profibus-DP communication module and is required by Profibus configuration software. This file can be downloaded from the technical support section of the LSIS website (http://www.lsis.com).

Warranty:

The warranty period is 12 months after installation or 18 months after manufacturing if the installation date is unidentified. The guarantee term may vary based on sales terms.
