PROFIBUS – system overview2

PROFIBUS – system overviewIntroduction

PROFIBUS is the successful open fieldbus that can be used for fast and cost-effective production in a wide area of applications.

Distributed automation structures are the prerequisite for such flexible manufacturing. Connecting production areas with local networks secures the information flow necessary for this.

PROFIBUS is a bus system for process and field communication in cell networks with few stations and with field devices, as well as for data communication in accordance with IEC 61158/61784.

Automation devices such as PLCs, PCs, HMI devices, sensors or actuators can communicate via a standardized bus.

This allows the use of a wide range of PROFIBUS products from Siemens and other manufacturers for solving automation tasks. These products can be operated together in a PROFIBUS network.

PROFIBUS thus offers openness for connecting standard com-ponents from other manufacturers.

Part of TIA

Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) stands for an integrated range of products and systems for automation in all areas – from incoming goods, through the production process to the dispatch of goods, from the field level, through the produc-tion control level to the connection to the corporate manage-ment level:

• An integrated software tool set supports all project phases, from the selection of hardware, programming and opera-tion, to diagnostics and maintenance.

• The tools access a common database.• This saves input costs and ensures project-wide consis-

tency.

Outstanding features

• PROFIBUS is a powerful, open, and rugged bus system that offers trouble-free communication.

• The system is fully standardized, which enables simple con-nection of standardized components from a variety of manufacturers.

• Configuration, commissioning, and troubleshooting can be carried out from any location. This results in user-defined communication relationships that are very versa-tile, simple to implement, and easy to change.

• Investment security through continuous compatible further development.

• Network components for use in harsh industrial environ-ments.

• Fast assembly and startup on site with the help of the FastConnect wiring system.

• Continuous monitoring of network components through a simple and effective signaling concept.

• High security of investment since existing networks can be extended without any adverse effects.

• High availability through ring redundancy with the active OLM network component.

• Fail-safe communication with PROFIsafe.• High levels of operational reliability and plant availability

thanks to different diagnostics options.

Communication functions

Process or field communication (PROFIBUS PA, PROFIBUS DP) is used to link field devices to a programmable controller, HMI system or control system.

Interfacing is performed over integrated interfaces on the CPU or through interface modules (IMs) and communications pro-cessors (CPs).

With modern high-performance automation systems it is often more effective to link more than one PROFIBUS DP line to one automation system, not just to increase the number of I/O stations that can be connected, but also to enable indi-vidual production areas to be handled independently (segmentation).

PROFIBUS standardized to IEC 61158/61784 is a high-perfor-mance, open, and rugged fieldbus system with short response times and the following protocols:

• PROFIBUS DP (distributed I/O)is used to connect distributed I/Os, e.g. SIMATIC ET 200, with extremely fast response times in accordance with the IEC 61158/61784 standard.

• PROFIBUS PA (Process Automation)extends PROFIBUS DP with intrinsically safe transmission technology in accordance with the standard IEC 61158-2.

PROFIBUS – system overview4

PROFIBUS – system overviewIntroduction

General overview of PROFIBUS

PROFIBUS is used to connect field devices, such as distributed I/O devices or drives, to automation systems such as SIMATIC S7 and S7mEC, PC-based controllers, WinAC, SIMOTION, SINUMERIK, or SIMATIC IPCs.

PROFIBUS is standardized in accordance with IEC 61158/ 61784 and is a powerful, open and rugged fieldbus system with short response times. PROFIBUS is available in different forms for various applications.

PROFIBUS DP(distributed I/O)

PROFIBUS DP is used for connecting distributed field devices, e.g. SIMATIC ET 200, or drives with extremely fast response times. PROFIBUS DP is used when sensors/actuators are dis-tributed at the machine or in the plant (e.g. field level).

The actuators and sensors are connected to the field devices. The field devices are supplied with output data in accordance with the master/slave technique and transfer input data to the controller or industrial PC.

Openness all along the line

Thanks to the openness of PROFIBUS DP, standard-compliant components from different manufacturers can also be con-nected.

The IEC 61158/61784 standards provide future protection for your investment.

Member companies worldwide offer the most diverse prod-ucts with PROFIBUS DP interface for the field area.

Siemens has a full product range of standard and fail-safe con-trollers, network components, communication software, and field devices.

And for field device manufacturers we offer everything to do with the PROFIBUS DP interface, such as ASICs, training, certi-fication, and much more.

PROFIsafepermits standard and safety-related communication on one and the same bus cable. It is an open solution for safety-related communication over standard buses and uses the PROFIBUS services.

PROFIBUS – system overview6

PROFIBUS – system overviewApplication options

Factory automation

It is possible to use PROFIBUS DP in, for example, the food and beverages industry, to implement production lines with variable speeds or options for controlling the plant during operation.

Many variables have to be flexible in order to allow fault-free pro-duction. Plant availability is becoming increasingly important. Downtimes caused by repairs are usually more expensive than the appropriate monitoring of systems for wear or possible faults. With the aid of high-performance components in the communi-cation, for example, errors can be located and reported quickly.

Process automation

Process automation has high performance and reliability re-quirements and demands simple and safe operation of plants.

PROFIBUS PA uses the intrinsically safe transmission techno-logy specified in the international IEC 61158-2 standard. This allows field devices to be integrated into the hazardous zone. The basis for this is PROFIBUS DP that has been expanded for intrinsically-safe operation. The acyclic communication servic-es of PROFIBUS DP/PA allow online access to device parame-ters, that is, the process control systems have direct access to the actual status of the field device data and to the status and diagnostics messages. Using PROFIBUS DP/PA, the field devices become an integral component of the company-wide automation concept from open-loop and closed-loop control right up to asset manage-ment, including spare parts management and warehouse management.

Building automation

The networking of large buildings or parts of buildings allows centralized or distributed access to all stations.

Electrical installation systems are found not only in residential and non-residential buildings but also in every industrial plant. Most devices and also many building systems such as lighting, heating, air conditioning, fans, blinds, or access controls are operated almost without exception with electric power. These systems, just like those in industrial automation, must be regulated, controlled, and monitored.

PROFIBUS – system overview8

PROFIBUS – system overviewNetworking options – electrical networks

The electrical network uses a shielded, twisted pair cable. The RS485 interface works with voltage differences. It is therefore less sensitive to interference than a voltage or cur-rent interface.

With PROFIBUS, the stations are connected to the bus via a bus terminal or a bus connector (max. 32 stations per segment).

The electrical network can be configured as a bus or tree struc-ture. The individual segments are connected via repeaters. The transmission rate can be set in steps from 9.6 Kbit/s to 12 Mbit/s in accordance with IEC 61158/61784.

The maximum segment length depends on the transmission rate.

For applications in the intrinsically-safe area the transmission technology compliant with IEC 61158-2 is used with PROFIBUS PA. The transmission rate in this case is 31.25 Kbit/s.

Features of the electrical network• Transmission method in accordance with IEC 61158/61784

for universal automation (PROFIBUS FMS/DP), and in accor-dance with IEC61158-2 for the intrinsically-safe area (PROFIBUS PA)

• Shielded 2-wire cable• Transmission method: RS485 (in accordance with EIA)• Bus topology with bus terminals and bus connectors for

Active network componentsElectrical network

Bus connector

The RS485 bus connectors for PROFIBUS are used for connect-ing a PROFIBUS station or a PROFIBUS network component to the bus cable for PROFIBUS.There are different versions of the bus connectors in sub D, RJ45 or M12 connection technology that are optimized for the devices to be connected.

Bus terminals

The PROFIBUS bus terminals enable connection of a bus node to a PROFIBUS network.

Different versions are available: • Up to 1.5 Mbit/s: RS485 bus terminal• Up to 12 Mbit/s: 12M bus terminal

The bus terminals have a prepared device connection for PROFIBUS stations. Stations are connected to PROFIBUS net-works by simply connecting sub D connectors to the spur line. Multi-point connections can be implemented by directly lining up several bus terminals (up to 32 stations per segment) at bus terminal 12M.

Active terminating element

The active RS485 terminating resistor is used to terminate bus segments. Power supply is independent of the bus stations. Separately from the other I/O components, the terminating resistor is supplied with a permanent voltage or with a voltage switched from the I/O. By terminating the bus system, the sta-tions (e.g. ET 200M/S) can be freely connected and discon-nected without malfunctions.

Repeater RS485

The RS485 repeater with IP20 connects two PROFIBUS or MPI bus segments in RS485 technology with up to 32 stations, in-cluding repeaters. It enables transfer rates from 9.6 Kbit/s to 12 Mbit/s (including 45.45 Kbit/s for PROFIBUS PA).

The repeater is used for:• Increasing the number of stations (up to 127) and

expansion• Galvanic isolation of segments• Regeneration of the signals in amplitude and time

Active network components20

Active network componentsElectrical network

Diagnostics repeater

STEP 7 or COM PROFIBUS prompts the diagnostics repeater to determine the topology of the bus system and saves it in the internal diagnostics memory.

If a fault occurs, the repeater automatically transmits a stan-dard diagnostic message to the bus master with the following information:

• Affected segment• Fault location (e.g. between station X and Y)• Distance of the fault location from station X or Y as well as

from the repeater in meters• Type of fault

The following faults are diagnosed:

• Break in data lines A, B• Data-line-to-shield short circuit• Bus terminating resistor missing

Sporadic errors are also detected. The error messages are displayed graphically in STEP 7. They are completely inte-grated into the SIMATIC system diagnostics (e.g. overview diagnostics, "Report system error" function).

Power Rail Booster

The Power Rail Booster enables a PROFIBUS DP connection via contact conductors as used, for example, on suspended monorail conveyors or high-bay storage and retrieval systems. The diverse PROFIBUS DP system capabilities, such as diagnos-tics and PROFIsafe safety engineering over the bus, can con-tinue to be used.

BT 200 hardware tester

The PROFIBUS line can be tested during the installation phase with the BT 200 tester. Installation errors are found quickly and simply and the installation engineer requires no special knowledge of PROFIBUS.

Even before commissioning of the plant it is possible to test the RS485 interface of the PROFIBUS DP slave with the BT 200. Outputting a list of accessible slaves on the pre-wired bus is also possible, and this without a master on PROFIBUS DP.

Optical network

Optical Link Module OLM

With the PROFIBUS OLM (Optical Link Modules), optical PROFIBUS networks can be established in linear, star and re-dundant ring topologies. The transfer rate of a fiber-optic line is independent of the distance and can be up to 12 Mbit/s.

Possible applications for OLMs include:• System buses based on PROFIBUS• Networking between buildings using glass fiber-optic cable• Mixed networks with electrical and optical segments• Networks covering a wide area

(road tunnels, traffic control systems)• Networks with high availability requirements

(redundant ring networks)• OLM/G12-EEC for outdoor use at temperatures as low

as -20 °C

OBT optical bus terminal

The OBT (Optical Bus Terminal) is used to connect a PROFIBUS DP station without integral optical interface or an existing RS485 bus segment to an optical line. It thus opens up the benefits of optical data transfer for existing DP devices or network segments in combination with devices possessing an integral optical interface (e.g. ET 200S FO).

The OBT is also used as the "socket outlet" for connecting mobile devices (e.g. programming devices) without interrupt-ing the bus. The PROFIBUS DP station is connected to the RS485 interface of the OBT via a cable terminated at both ends, e.g. 830-1T connecting cable . The OBT is integrated into the optical line using two optical interfaces.

The following optical transmission media can be connected to the OBT:

• Plastic fiber-optic cablepre-assembled with 2 × 2 Simplex connectors, max. 50 m

• PCF fiber-optic cablepre-assembled with 2 × 2 Simplex connectors, max. 300 m.

Benefits

■ Automatic detection of all PROFIBUS data rates:9.6 Kbit/s to 12 Mbit/s including 45.45 Kbit/s (PROFIBUS PA).

■ High availability due to media redundancy.

■ The distance between two OLMs in the redundant ring is only limited by the optical range of the modules.

■ RS485 interface with segment capability (sub D socket)

■ Unrestricted multi-master operation:Expanded segmentation functions for localization of faults on fiber-optic and RS485 segments

■ Fast localization of faults:– Indication of module status through floating

signaling contact– Checking the fiber-optic cable route quality:

Measurement output for optical receiver for log-ging and validity checking of the fiber-optic path attenuation with a voltmeter

– Signaling of the fault at its location of origin, no indication of secondary faults

■ High cascading depth: Line and redundant ring up to 124 OLM (only limited by monitoring times)

■ Large range due to use of glass fiber-optic cables in lengths of up to 15 km

PROFIBUS OLM PROFIBUS OBT

Benefits

■ Existing devices with electrical interface can be con-nected to new optical networks, as can existing bus segments

■ Low-cost solution for simple optical networking

■ Time savings thanks to simple and fast assembly of the fiber-optic cable connectors directly on-site.

Network transitions 23

Network transitions between one bus system and another are implemented using links, controllers (PLCs) or PCs.

In the case of PLCs or IPCs, this takes place via integrated in-terfaces and communications processors (CPs). Links pass the data through from one network to another without additional links.

Links are independent components that form the seamless transition between the various bus systems, e.g. between Industrial Ethernet and PROFIBUS. For example, HMI systems can gain easy access from Industrial Ethernet to field devices on the PROFIBUS or on the AS-Interface.

This enables implementation of vertical integration from the control level to the field level.

The following links are available:

• IE/PB Link PN IOfor the transition from Industrial Ethernet to PROFIBUS

• IWLAN/PB Link PN IOfor the transition from IWLAN to PROFIBUS

• DP/AS-i LINK Advanced, DP/AS-i F LINK and DP/AS Interface Link 20E for the transition from PROFIBUS to AS-Interface

The proxy concept simplifies integration of existing fieldbus systems with high transparency.

On Industrial Ethernet, the proxy represents one or more fieldbus devices (e.g. on PROFIBUS). It ensures transparent conversion of the communication between the networks (no tunneling of the protocols), and forwards the cyclic data, for example, to the fieldbus devices.

As PROFIBUS master, the proxy coordinates data exchange between the PROFIBUS stations. At the same time, it is an Ethernet station with PROFINET communication. Proxies can be implemented as controllers or purely as network transi-tions. The same principle is applied when integrating AS-Interface systems.

As well as wired proxies on Industrial Ethernet, SIMATIC NET also offers proxies with Industrial Wireless LAN connection.

Communications processors for SIMATIC24

Communications processors for SIMATICCPs for SIMATIC S7

The SIMATIC NET communications processors can be used for applications in factory or process automation. Thanks to their openness in accordance with international standards, different components are able to work with each other. They are characterized in particular by their ruggedness in the in-dustrial environment.

Effectiveness and efficiency are essential in the case of solu-tion concepts for plant components of automation tasks. This means that very high demands are imposed on the communi-cation performance with regard to data rates. Thanks to their protocol preprocessing, the communications processors maintain a constant data throughput. At a stable high level, they offer fast response times and rule out any fluctuations in communication performance.

The CPs perform communication tasks for the terminals and only take up few of their resources.

The PLC as an element of communication

Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are of key importance in the world of automation. And industrial communication forms the nerve center in this respect. The CPs for PLCs adopt a key role in industrial communication.

SIMATIC NET increases availability by means of modular, net-worked subsystems, as in the case of electrical supply, which also takes place in individual circuits.

Communications processors for SIMATIC S7

The communications processors are all designed for use in rough industrial environments with a wide range of tempera-tures. The communications processors are also certified for marine use (e.g. ABS), enabling them to be used on ships or offshore installations. The CPs feature S7 communication (client, server, multi-plexing), open communication (SEND/RECEIVE) and PG/OP communication as standard.

The CPs offer the following advantages

■ CPs for SIMATIC, e.g. SIMATIC S7-300/-400

■ By means of open communication with standards,SIMATIC can communicate with any other device.

Communications processors for PG/PCOptions for use with OPC (Openness, Productivity & Collaboration)

System Integration with OPC Server

OPC is a standardized, open, and vendor-independent inter-face that is widely used in automation.

As a rule, OPC communication consists of a server and one or several clients. These clients can be located on the same PC or also on other PCs in the Ethernet network.

OPC servers are available for a wide variety of protocols, such as PROFINET, SNMP and networks, such as Ethernet.

OPC servers from SIMATIC NET have the following functions:

• Connection of automation solutions of various manufac-turers to SIMATIC PLCs, field devices and Ethernet network components

• Servers for OPC DA, OPC DA-XML and OPC A&E-capable clients

• Configuration with STEP 7 or alternatively in free NCM PC• Programming interface for the OPC server via the Custom

Interface (C++) and "Automation Interface" (VB)• Optimized communication between OPC client and server

by grouping of variables (items)• Application examples and documentation
