2.5.8 Connecting PROFIBUS-DP to instabus EIB
Design
Figure 2-24 DP/EIB Link
The DP/EIB link allows a connection between the two open standard systems for
industrial automation PROFIBUS-DP and building automation instabus EIB. This
provides an ideal connection between the high performance of the PROFIBUS
components and the extreme flexibility of the instabus EIB system.
The DP/EIB link is a DP slave (complying with EN 50170) and at the same time a
node on the instabus EIB.
The displays and operating controls are as follows:
S
LED for EIB bus errors
S
LED for PROFIBUS bus errors
S LED for power supply OK
S Coding switch for the PROFIBUS address
S Programming button for EIB.
Uses
The DP/EIB link can be used wherever PROFIBUS or instabus EIB is used; in
other words, a distinction can be made between two areas of application:
