3.5.5 Using the display menu to distinguish the current revision of the device (PA)
Use the display to open the Fct. B3.5 or C5.8.2 of the signal converter. You will get the following
information:
• KROHNE Ident.-No. (of the assembled PROFIBUS PCB)
• Software revision (of the PROFIBUS software)
• Date of production (of the PROFIBUS device)
3.6 Signal converter IFC 300 PROFIBUS PA with MBP interface as
replacement for older signal converter IFC 090 PA
3.6.1 Ident.-No. supported
Ident.-No. "F401hex": Ident.-No. "F401hex": Ident.-No. "F401hex": Ident.-No. "F401hex": This Ident.-No. supports a compatibility mode concerning the cyclic data
transfer (cyclic measurement values and diagnosis) if the IFC300 with PROFIBUS MBP interface
will be used for replacement of an "IFC090PA". It is not
not not not necessary to adapt the PLC
configuration. Communication functions are restricted to those functions supported by IFC090
converters. Take care to set the "IFC300 PROFIBUS MBP interface" parameters in a way to get
the same behaviour as of "IFC090PA" concerning calculation of measuring values and totalizers
(this has to be done manually).
3.6.2 Manufacturer specific GSD files (PA): KROHF401.GSD and YP01F401.GSD for the
older signal converter IFC090 with PROFIBUS MBP interface
The PROFIBUS signal converter with MBP Interface operating in the IFC090 compatibility mode
ensures operation with a PLC system with software parameters based on the IFC090PA. This
option is important for those customers who do not want to change the parameters in the PLC
software after having replaced the IFC090PA by an IFC300 with PROFIBUS MBP interface. The
existing GSD files of the IFC090PA ("KROHF401.GSD" or "YP01F401.GSD") can still be used.
In this application, the compatibility mode of the IFC300 with PROFIBUS MBP interface has to be
selected (display menu D2.9 - Identification No. -> choose IFC090); some other entries have to be
performed in a next step.
The overall situation is described using the following example: Consider an "IFC090PA" standard
configuration based on IFS…FLUX* flow sensor and "IFC090PA" flow signal converter. Consider
the following two options for replacements (IFS ….FLUX = IFS flow sensor compliant with
IFC090PA):
1. The IFC090PA flow signal converter will be replaced by an IFC300 PROFIBUS MBP interface
flow signal converter. The IFS …FLUX flow sensor is kept.
2. In addition to 1., also the IFS …FLUX flow sensor will be replaced by an OPTIFLUX flow sensor.
Options for flow
sensor installation:
Option 1.: IFS...FLUX
Option 2.: OPTIFLUX
