Uses
The DP/AS-interface link 20 implements a small, cost-effective link between
PROFIBUS and AS-interface. The DP/AS-interface link 20 requires no additional
power supply, the power is supplied on the AS-interface cable. The AS-interface
segment can be started up without PROFIBUS-DP being in operation.
The DP/AS-interface link 20 is a PROFIBUS-DP slave (complying with EN 50170)
and AS-interface master in one unit and provides a simple link between
PROFIBUS-DP and the AS-interface. The DP/AS-interface link 20 allows system
attachment of the following:
S PROFIBUS-DP master, for example CP 342-5 for S7-300, CP 443-5 extended
for S7-400, CP 5431 FMS/DP or IM 308C for SIMATIC S5, CP 5412 (A2) for
PC or CP 5611/CP 5511 for PCs with DP-SOFTNET software.
S Other systems with DP master functionality
