NEW now with additional slave function

PROFIBUS Interface Card: PBpro PCI (1-channel, master)

Area of application

Active, one-channel universal PCI interface card to connect a PC to a PROFIBUS network. The card operates as master or slave and is suited both to fast control and visualization tasks and to parameterization and analysis applications.

Functions
  • Active card with its own microcontroller
  • Universal PCI interface for 5V and 3.3V systems
  • Standard PCI and low-profile format
  • master and slave operation with the same card
  • optimized for high-speed data exchange
  • API for DP-V0 and DP-V1 Master, DP-Slave, FMS, FDL
  • Windows drivers for Vista32, XP, 2000, Linux drivers for Kernel 2.6
  • also available as "DP Slave"-only
  • Within the scope of customer-specific integration additional functions are available.
    Our project team will gladly assist you.
    • DP-V2 Master
    • redundancy
    • application synchronization
    • automatic baud rate recognition when operated as a class 2 master
  • The following realtime environments are supported:
    • VxWorks support for integration (upon request)
    • QNX (as option, not as free download)
  • Add-Ons for visualization and parameterization
Included in package
  • PBpro PCI (1-channel, master/slave)
