1.2
General Information ILX69-PBS
The ILX69-
PBS is a slot extension module for Rockwell's CompactLogix™ 1769 system
which allows the PLC to exchange data on a PROFIBUS network.
The ILX69-PBS PROFIBUS DPV1 slave exchanges data with the connected PROFIBUS DP
master.
The configuration is stored permanently in the on-board FLASH memory of the ILX69-PBS
and is available immediately on power up. The data exchange between controller and
module is done via the I/O process data image using CompactLogix™ backplane
technology.
The diagnostics of the ILX69-
PBS can be done using the CompactLogix™ PLC program, via
the ProSoft web pages or by help of the master configuration and diagnostics software.
