Molex SST-PB3-REM Remote PLC Module Guia De Especificação
The SST
™
PB3 Remote Module is a unique and powerful solution to provide
PROFIBUS connectivity for Rockwell Automation Logix controllers; Rockwell
users in factory-automation and process-control applications can benefit from
flexible installation designs, reduced commissioning time and lower cabling costs
The SST
™
PB3 Remote Module for PROFIBUS is a linking device with on-board
PROFIBUS and Ethernet communication ports that provides a fast and easy solution for
adding PROFIBUS Master and Slave connectivity to any Rockwell Logix controllers. This
unique remote module concept offers the same features of an in-chassis module but can
reduce expensive PROFIBUS cabling costs when used in environments where controller
and field devices are away from each other, sometimes needing to be long distances apart.

unique remote module concept offers the same features of an in-chassis module but can
reduce expensive PROFIBUS cabling costs when used in environments where controller
and field devices are away from each other, sometimes needing to be long distances apart.
The PB3 module fits both factory-automation and process-control applications. Fully
integrated into Rockwell architecture through user-friendly features such as Add-on-
Instructions, integrated Ethernet switch and direct access from RSLogix 5000 to I/O data
without the need to write any ladder logic, the module also has complete access to
PROFIBUS DP-V1 services and device diagnostics.

The PB3 Remote Module software for PC includes an engineering console with Rockwell
look-and-feel. The console can configure PROFIBUS Master and Slaves, export
PROFIBUS process variables in RSLogix 5000 (L5X) format, perform automatic DP
Slaves detection and display on-line diagnostics. A CommDTM driver is included in the
software package to enable FrameDTM applications, including AssetCentre, PACTware
and Fieldcare for asset management.
