Prosoft PS69-DPS PROFIBUS DP Slave Communication Module

The PS69-DPS module expands the functionality of

Rockwell Automation’s CompactLogix™ to include

PROFIBUS DP V0/V1. The PS69-DPS is a more cost

effective option offering more features than the MVI69

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

controller as a standard I/O module allowing it to be

configured via RSLogix™ 5000. 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.

Configuration

The GSD file supplied is sufficient to integrate the PS69

DPS as a PROFIBUS DP Slave into the configuration of

any PROFIBUS Master. The PROFIBUS address is set

by rotary switches. The slave configuration can be either

transferred from the Master to the PS69-DPS or can be

defined from the Logix application.
