Communication through PROFIBUS:
PROFIBUS stands for Process Field Bus. PROFIBUS is a multi-vendor standard for the
networking of field devices (e.g. PLCs, drives, actuators, or sensors) in compliance with the
European process and fieldbus standard (PROFIBUS standard EN 50170, Volume 2, -
PROFIBUS). It specifies the functional, electrical and mechanical characteristics of a bit-
serial fieldbus system.
PROFIBUS is a bus system that networks PROFIBUS-compatible automation systems and
field devices at the cell and field level. PROFIBUS is available with the DP (= Distributed
Peripherals), FMS (= Fieldbus Message Specification), PA (= Process Automation), or
TF (= Technological Functions) protocol.
PROFIBUS DP is a bus system with the DP (distributed I/O) protocol. The main task of
PROFIBUS DP is to manage the fast, cyclic data exchange between the central DP devices
and the I/O devices.
PROFIBUS DPV1 is the extension of the DP protocol. It enables acyclic data exchange of
parameter, diagnostic, receive and test data.
SIMOCODE pro C, pro S and pro V support, among others:
● Baud rates up to 1.5 Mbit / s or 12 Mbit / s
● Automatic baud rate detection
● Communication with one master (class 1) and up to two masters (class 2)
● Time stamp with high timing precision (SIMATIC S7) for SIMOCODE pro V
● Cyclic services (DPV0) and acyclic services (DPV1)
● DPV1 communication downstream from the Y-Link.
