BACnet/IP Client to PROFIBUS DPV0 Slave Gateway

5205-BACNET-PDPS

Product Description

The ProLinx BACnet/IP Client to PROFIBUS DPV0 Slave Gateway creates a powerful connection between a PROFIBUS Master and BACnet/IP devices. This stand-alone DIN-rail mounted protocol gateway provides a PROFIBUS Slave port and a single Ethernet port.

The ProLinx BACnet/IP (Building Automation and Control networking) protocol version is designed specifically to meet the communication needs of building automation and control systems for applications such as heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning control, lighting control, access control, and fire detection systems with limited BACnet/IP command support.

The PROFIBUS DP Slave (PDPS) protocol interface supports the PROFIBUS V0 Slave implementation protocol, providing powerful data transfer capability between the ProLinx module and Siemens PLCs or other hosts. User configurable data mapping and DP port operation make the interface an easy to use and powerful data transfer tool.

Product Applications

  • Standard protocol for Building Automation and Control limited to Analog and Digital I/O commands
  • Adds BACnet/IP device monitoring and control to a PROFIBUS DP network
  • Communicate with Building Automation controllers, HVAC, Fire and Safety equipment.
  • Support for Trane Building Control Unit (BCU)

Functional Specifications

Internal Database

The ProLinx module contains an internal database that consists of areas for application data, status information, and configuration information.

The internal database is shared between all ports on the module and is used as a conduit to pass information from a device on one network to one or more devices on another network.

Application Data Area

The data area is used to store and retrieve data by the protocol drivers and for data exchange between protocols. The database is used as a source for write commands to remote devices and holds data collected from the remote devices. Commands defined in the configuration file (stored in the configuration data area) control how the data is to be handled in the database.

Status Data Area

This area is used to store error codes, counters, and port status information for each port.

Configuration File

This file contains module configuration information such as port configuration, network information, and command configuration. This configuration file is downloaded to, or uploaded from, the module.

BACnet/IP Client

  • The BACnet driver supports a single UDP client to interface with one or more devices that contain a BACnet/IP server
  • The ProLinx BACnet/IP driver implements a limited subset of the BACnet/IP protocol primarily used with the Trane BCU
  • The module controls the read/write data transfer between the gateway and other BACnet/IP devices

PROFIBUS DP Slave Specifications

The PROFIBUS DP Slave driver gives access to the ProLinx unit's internal database via 200 bytes of Input data and 200 bytes of Output data. These Input and Output data blocks are mapped by the user within the ProLinx module's data memory allowing the user maximum flexibility and data transfer with other protocols.

Status Data

Status data is available through the debug menu. The status information includes diagnostic data, input and output counters and module state.

Important Note: The slave node address is set to 126 by default in the module configuration file. The default node address must be changed to a valid address between 1-125 by the user for the slave to function on the PROFIBUS network.
