General description
ST41 is a tutorial kit for PROFIbus PA transmitter developers and users. It comprises a PC program, providing the human interface and a transmitter circuit board (T410). A MODbus instrument may be connected directly toT410. The MODbus interface must be configured to fit the application.
ST41 is a tool suited for learning the PROFIbus protocol and to provide guidance for an instrument vendor that shall specify PROFIbus functionality in own products.
The Starter kit comes with the PROFIView, Master Class 1 and Class 2 software, which is a Java application. It also contains the DLL, Master protocol driver and the FNL PA coupler, enabling connectivity between the PC Master and PROFIbus PA. The software will instruct the user in how to use the PROFIbus protocol, the PA profiles, the Function Blocks and the Transducer blocks.
The T410 is a transmitter board. In order to connect it to a MODbus instrument, the user must configure the MODbus communication registers.
T410 supports RS485, RS232 or pure CMOS. The circuit board comprises a Renesas M16C µcontroller, which runs the protocol and the application.
T410 features:
-
MODbus master functionality
-
Can communicate with up to 4 MODbus slaves
-
Supports RS232, RS 485 or CMOS interface
-
MODbus communication configurable
-
Wide range of PROFIbus configurations possible
-
