PROFIBUS is a vendor independent, open fieldbus standard for a wide range of applications in manufacturing, process and
building automation. Vendor independence and openness are guaranteed by the PROFIBUS standard EN50170. With
PROFIBUS, devices from different manufacturers can inter-communicate. Suitable interfaces exist for PLCs, which include
the Siemens, Mitsubishi and Allen Bradley range.

The 2400
f
controllers support the PROFIBUS-DP variant of the PROFIBUS protocol which is designed especially for
communication between automatic control systems and distributed I/O at the device level. It is most often used to allow a
central Programmable Logic Controller or PC based control system to use external ‘slave’ devices for I/O or specialised
functions. The principal advantage is that these devices may be distributed around a machine, thereby saving on the cost of
point to point wiring. The ‘open’ nature of the network also permits equipment from different manufacturers to be mixed on
the same bus. Additionally, the off-loading of complex and specialised tasks such as PID temperature control lessens the
processing load on the central PLC so that its other functions may be carried out more efficiently and require less CPU
memory.

PROFIBUS-DP is described in DIN 19245 Part 3, and forms part of EN 50170 with P-Net and WorldFIP. However it is
important to note that P-Net and WorldFIP are wholly incompatible with PROFIBUS, using different wiring and transmission
technologies.

The PROFIBUS-DP network uses a high speed version of the RS485 standard, permitting baud rates of up to 12Mbaud. Note
