The DL-PD1 is an interface unit, which enables sensors to connect to the PROFIBUS DP.
The characteristics of the DL-PD1 are shown below.
• Slave Unit of the PROFIBUS DP-V1
• The following features are achieved by connecting the sensors, which are suitable
for each application, in the form of a module.
• Reading out the Output of the sensor.
• Reading out the measurement value of the sensor.
• Changing the configuration of the sensor.
• Two selectable operational modes
• Monitor Mode: Input size – MAX 107 bytes, Output size – MAX 16 bytes
• I/O Mode: Input size – 10 bytes, Output size – 10 bytes
• Corresponding to the communication speed of 9.6 kbits/s to 12 Mbits/s
The DL-PD1 can connect to up to 15 units of sensor amplifiers (a single main unit and
multiple expansion units) which support D-bus. (“D-bus” is the name of KEYENCE’s
wiring-saving system for sensor amplifiers.)
Different types of sensor amplifiers with D-bus support can be connected to a single DL-PD1
unit.
How many and what types of sensor amplifiers can be connected depends on the sensor
amplifiers or units to be connected. Please inquire for details.

WARNING
CAUTION
NOTICE
• To avoid injury or failure, turn off the power immediately in the
following cases.
- Water or foreign matter entered the main unit.
- The case is broken, for example if it is dropped.
- Smoke or unusual smell is emitted from the product.
• Use the correct power voltage. Failure to observe may result in
injury, or failure.
• Do not disassemble or modify this product. Failure to observe may
result in injury.
Do not turn off the power while you are setting any item. Doing this
may cause loss of data settings.
For safe, trouble-free operation of this product, the product must not
be installed in the following locations:
- Humid, dusty, or poorly ventilated.
- Exposed to direct sunlight or heating source.
- Exposed to corrosive or flammable gases.
- Exposed directly to vibration or shock.
- Exposed to water, oil, or chemical splashes.
- Exposed to static electricity.
If this product is installed in a location near a noise source, e.g. power
source or high-voltage line, it may malfunction or fail. Take protective
measures, such as using a noise filter including a supplied ferrite core
or running the cables separately.
* Use a ferrite core for a power cable of a sensor amplifier with D-bus
support which supplies power for the unit (3 turns).
