Introduction

ibaNet750-BM-D is a device designed to extend the range of iba I/O functionalities using

the I/O modules of the series 750 produced by WAGO and terminals for the K-bus by

Beckhoff. The device acts as a gateway between the serial K-bus and the deterministic

fiber optic ibaNet protocol.

The WAGO I/O system is the ideal supplement for the range of the peripheral devices.

Digital and analog WAGO/Beckhoff I/O terminals as well as incremental encoders, SSI

inputs, resistance thermometers, thermocouples and measuring bridges can be inte

grated into the system.

Up to 255 WAGO I/O terminals can be connected to ibaNet750-BM-D and a data volume

of up to 2048 Bytes can be transferred over the K-bus.

The signals are internally converted and are available via the fiber optic interface. For

the connection to a data acquisition system, such as ibaPDA, an ibaFOB-D card is used

with a bidirectional fiber optic cable connection.

The ibaFOB-4i-S or ibaFOB-io-S devices represent the new generation of iba’s fiber optic

PC boards. These boards replace the ibaFOB x/4. ibaFOB x/4-F and ibaFOB 2/2 IO boards

which were based on the PC ISA bus definition. The new boards are 100% com-patible

on the fiber optical bus side while in the PC the interface and dual port ram layout differ

between the old and new boards.

The new cards features are:

 Full Plug&Play functionality.

 Enhanced throughput on the PC bus side.

 Enhanced card diagnostics and card information (LEDs and 7-segment display).

 Two modes of operation: F-mode and M-mode, to be selected for each FO-port in-dividually

 Optional synchronization modules for synchronizing multiple systems in conjunction with ibaScope

The following devices can be connected:

 ibaFOB x/4 (ISA)

 ibaFOB x/4-F (ISA) with ibaFOB-OF-Link

 ibaFOB 2/2 I/O (ISA)

 ibaLink-SM-64-io (Siemens Simatic S5 115U, 135U 155U; MMC216 all types)

 ibaLink-SM-128V-i-2o (VME32 & VME64 rack)

 ibaNet750-BM (Wago IO system 750)

 ibaBM-FOX-i-3o (FO-splitter and repeater)

 ibaPADU-8. ibaPADU-8-ICP, ibaPADU-8-M, ibaPDAU-8-S, ibaPADU-16.

ibaPADU-32-T, ibaPADU-32-R and ibaPADU-8-O (A/D & D/A -converter)

 ibaBM-SLM (Simolink Monitor for Siemens Motion Link Bus)

 ibaBM-DDCSM (Monitor for ABB DDCS+ Drivebus)

 Adjustable bus timing (ring topology in combination with ibaLogic only!)

 Easy handling without the termination problems of copper based systems

 The integration in hazardous areas is no problem in terms of EMI due to the

fiber optic communication concept.

 One source can be accessed by multiple clients at the same time by just multiply-ing

the optical fibers (ibaFOx-3 and ibaFOB-OF-Link splitting devices) – so I/O pe-ripherals

may be used for process control and measuring at the same time.

This also makes redundant structures easy.

 100% compatibility to its predecessors based on the ISA bus

The boards ibaFOB-io-PCI, ibaFOB-io-S, ibaFOB-4i-PCI, ibaFOB-4i-S, ibaFOB-4o

and ibaFOB-OF-Link are fiber optic communication cards which are used to connect

a stan-dard PC to the iba peripheral devices such as ibaPADUs, ibaNet750-BM

devices and ibaLink signal modules (SM).

As far as the following text does not refer to a particular card, the boards are

referred to as ibaFOB boards.

The unique peripheral I/O concept based on the ibaFOB boards, features

characteristics otherwise unknown on standardized field buses such as:

 Full deterministic transmission profiles for all fiber optic buses and connected

devices (1ms).

 Internal and/or external synchronization on the bus, even for more than one

bus with programmable cycle times between 1.0 and 9.9 ms in steps of 100 μs.

 Deviation less than 2 μs between several busses (external synchronization)

 The iba fiber optic transmission standard integrates not only A/D converters

(ibaPADU) but a huge variety of PLC interfaces and hence allows the realization

of heterogene-ous measuring and I/O topologies.
