3.1 Intended use
The expansion module PNOZ m ES Profibus is used for communication between the con­
figurable control system PNOZmulti 2 and PROFIBUS­DP.
PROFIBUS­DP is designed for fast data exchange at field level. The expansion module
PNOZ m ES Profibus is a passive subscriber (Slave) of PROFIBUS­DP (DPV0). The basic
functions of communication with PROFIBUS­DP conform to EN 50170. The central control­
ler (Master) reads input information from the slaves and writes output information to the
slaves as part of each cycle. As well as the cyclical transfer of usable data, PROFIBUS­DP
can also be used for diagnostics and commissioning functions. Data traffic is monitored on
the Master/Slave side.
The expansion module may only be connected to a base unit from the configurable control
system PNOZmulti 2 (please refer to the document "PNOZmulti System Expansion" for de­
tails of the base units that can be connected).
The configurable control system PNOZmulti 2 is used for the safety­related interruption of
safety circuits and is designed for use in:
} E­STOP equipment
} Safety circuits in accordance with VDE 0113 Part 1 and EN 60204­1
The expansion module may not be used for safety­related functions.
Intended use includes making the electrical installation EMC­compliant. The product is de­
signed for use in an industrial environment. It is not suitable for use in a domestic environ­
