PROFIBUS® DP Configuration Example

The integration of the Communication Module in the PLC configuration is an assumption for the correct function of the PROFIBUS® Communication Module CM572.

The PROFIBUS® DP Communication Module CM572 has to be configured as the PROFIBUS® master. The PROFIBUS® slave functionality is made available via the FBP interface and an FBP PROFIBUS® plug.

The following construction is used as an example of a PROFIBUS® configuration:

AC500 configuration: CPU (PM581) with an expansion DC532 at the I/O-Bus as well as one decentralized expansion over PROFIBUS® (CM572) with the devices PDP22-FBP, DC505-FBP as well as the S500 modules DC532, DI524, DX522 and AX522.
