4.1.5.3
PROFIBUS DP
PROFIBUS is an open fieldbus standard. Communication is defined in IEC 61158 and IEC
61784. Further provisions have been defined in specifications published by the PROFIBUS
User Group. These specifications are available from PROFIBUS International.
On a certain unit type, the PROFIBUS DP interface is available together with a CANopen
interface on a 9-pin female D-Sub connector (X51).
Properties:
}
The PROFIBUS is configured using the CD command: Slave address, address range,
see "PMCprimo Programming Manual".
}
PROFIBUS DP with CODESYS
– Ignores configuration with CD command
– 1000 16 Bit signed variables available
they start from address 1000
}
A total of up to 108 bus variables can be read and written in command language (see
"PMCprimo Programming Manual"):
– Address space of bus variables: $B1 to $Bx108 (can be set using the CD command).
– Data width: 16 Bit including sign
– Value range: -32768 to 32767 (Hex: 0x0000 bis 0x7FFF).

INFORMATION
Please also refer to the installation guidelines published by the PROFIBUS
User Group.
4.1.5.4
Ethernet
The Gigabit Ethernet interface (X43) connects the PMCprimo MC to a programming device
for configuration, programming and commissioning. The interface can also be used to con-
nect a visualisation device.
The Gigabit Ethernet interface is compatible with 1000Base-T (Standard Gigabit Ethernet).
Data exchange is possible via Modbus/TCP.
4.1.5.5
EtherCAT
EtherCAT uses the Ethernet Standard (IEEE 802.3) without modifications.
The PMCprimo MC does not require a setting (CD command) to use the EtherCAT master
as a drive bus.
To do this, however, a CODESYS V3 project must be active (Boot project), where all the
EtherCAT devices are configured.
