AS-i 3.0 PROFIBUS Gateway in Stainless Steel
Appendix: Example for startup on a Siemens S7
12. Appendix: Example for startup on a Siemens S7
This example shows you how to start up the AS-i 3.0 PROFIBUS Gateway in
Stainless Steel VBG-PB-K30-D-S on a Siemens S7-300 programmable logic con-
troller.
12.1 Hardware configuration
12.1.1 Electrical connection for AS-i
To supply the AS-i circuit, connect the output on the AS-i Power Extender or an
AS-i power supply to the VBG-PB-K30-D-S. Observe correct polarity of the termi-
nals AS-i(+) and AS-i(-).
In the following the desired AS-i slaves are connected to the AS-i circuit. The AS-
i slaves have their device address set to 0 by default. This must be changed to
the desired AS-i slave address.
You can set the AS-i slave address using the function "AS-i SLAVE ADDR" func-
tion from the submenu "SETUP" on the VBG-PB-K30-D-S. For more detailed in-
formation, refer to chapter "Operating in advanced Display Mode".
