1.2 General Information
The ILX69- PBM is a PROFIBUS DP master module for the CompactLogix™ platform which
allows the PLC to control data exchange on a PROFIBUS network. The ILX69-PBM handles
the cyclic data exchange between the connected PROFIBUS slaves.
The data exchange between the CompactLogix™ controller and the ILX69-PBM is done via
the I/O process d
ata image using CompactLogix™ backplane technology. The process
image of the CompactLogix™ and of the ILX69-PBM is updated automatically during
runtime.
