To get the most benefit from this User Manual, you should have the following
skills:
Rockwell Automation
®
RSLogix™ software: launch the program, configure
ladder logic, and transfer the ladder logic to the processor
Microsoft Windows: install and launch programs, execute menu commands,
navigate dialog boxes, and enter data
Hardware installation and wiring: install the module, and safely connect
PROFIBUS DP and CompactLogix or MicroLogix devices to a power source
and to the PS69-
DPS module’s application port(s)
The PS69-
DPS module expands the functionality of Rockwell Automation’s
CompactLogix or MicroLogix to include PROFIBUS DP V0/V1. The PS69-DPS is
a more cost-effective option offering more features than the PS69-PDPS, and
supports both I/O control and messaging. Explicit ladder logic CIP message
blocks provide slave status diagnostic data and acyclic messaging.
The PS69-DPS interface appears to the CompactLogix or MicroLogix controller
as a standard I/O module allowing it to be configured via RSLogix5000, or
configuration can be transferred from the Master to the PS69-DPS. For third
party configuration a GSD file is supplied. The slave interface possesses a
diagnostic interface and has rotary switches for setting of the bus address.
Complete program examples for simple and quick start-up are available.
Each module is equipped with LEDs to display communication and device status.
