Connect Your Adapter to the PROFIBUS DP
Network
Overview
Read this chapter to install the input and output analog modules.
The DP Physical Layer
The PROFIBUS network media is a balanced transmission line corresponding to
the standard EIA RS-485, terminated at both ends. Both line A and line B types
are available, depending on your system requirements.
Specifications and guidelines for DP media:
• linear bus, terminated at both ends
• drop cables (preferably no longer than .30 m), no branches
• shielded twisted pair
• max. line length between 100 and 1200 m (depending on baudrate and
cable type)
•number of stations: 32
• DP baudrates: 9.6, 19.2, 93.75, 187.5, 500 Kbit/s, 1.5 Mbit/s, 12 MBd
Use the following table to determine what line type will best meet your needs.
