PROFIBUS Interface Card:
PBpro PCI Express (2-channel, master/slave)

Area of application

Active, two-channel universal PCI interface card to connect a PC to two independent PROFIBUS networks. Both channels work alternatively as master or slave. The card operates as a DP master and is suited both to fast control and visualization tasks and to parameterization and analysis applications. For instance, this enables the PC to be integrated into hierarchical network structures or to function as a multi-channel master.

Functions
  • Active card with its own microcontroller
  • PCI Express x1 interface
  • 2 fully separated, independent channels
  • master and slave operation per channel adjustable
  • Optimized for high-speed data exchange
  • API for DP-V0 und DP-V1 Master, DP-Slave, FMS, FDL
  • Drivers for Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2000
  • Within the scope of customer-specific integration additional functions are available.
    Our project team will gladly assist you.
