The ILX56-PBM PROFIBUS DPV1 Master/Multi-Slave module allows

Rockwell Automation® ControlLogix® processors to communicate with

various PLCs and devices using the PROFIBUS DP protocol.  As a

PROFIBUS DP Master, the module can transfer up to 5000 bytes of

cyclic I/O data with various slave devices on the network.

Or you can use the module as a PROFIBUS DP multi-slave, where the

module can emulate up to 10 individual nodes on a PROFIBUS DP

network, allowing for more cyclic I/O data transfer.

With the ILX56-PBM module, ControlLogix® processors can easily

communicate with devices supporting PROFIBUS DPV0 and DPV1

protocol. And through premier integration tools such as a custom Add-On

Profile, project-specific Add-On Routines, and advanced tools such as

PROFIBUS DP packet capture utility, you can minimize the time required

to get a PROFIBUS DP network configured in a ControlLogix®

environment.

In addition, with the use of multiple I/O connections back to the

ControlLogix® processor, this module provides data update rates that will

meet even the most demanding applications.
