Safety
General

These guidelines have been written with the view of giving the potential PROFIBUS user an introduction to the planning and commissioning of a PROFIBUS PA network. They are based on the experience of Endress+Hauser employees who have been actively involved in PROFIBUS projects and who, in the meantime, have successfully commissioned a large number of plants. The approved usage of the individual devices that are used in a network can be taken from the corresponding device operating instructions.

Installation, commissioning, operation

The field devices, segment coupler, cables and other components must be designed to operate safely in accordance with current technical safety and EU standards. If installed incorrectly or used for applications for which they are not intended, it is possible that dangers may arise. For this reason, the system must be installed, connected, operated and maintained according to the instructions in this and other relevant manuals: personnel must be authorised and suitably qualified.

Explosion hazardous area

If the system is to be installed in an explosion hazardous area: Ensure that all personnel are suitably qualified Observe the specifications in the certificate Observe any national and local regulations. For PROFIBUS PA, it is recommended components should be designed in accordance with the FISCO model. This greatly simplifies the acceptance testing of the PROFIBUS PA segment. Where another scheme is used, e.g. Exe/Exi multibarriers, proof of intrinsic safety must be furnished.

PROFIBUS planning and commissioning

Introduction to PROFIBUS

PROFIBUS is a standardized, open communications system for all areas of application in factory and process automation. The technology was introduced in the early 1990s and has been developed continuously ever since. The PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS PA technologies are specified in the international standards EN 50170 and IEC 61158 and are suitable for replacement of discrete and analog signals in control systems. PROFIBUS DP The original specification was aimed primarily at the requirements of Factory Automation, but this was quickly extended to include the requirements of process automation, in particular the need for intrinisically safe bus powering of devices. This is mirrored in the PROFIBUS PA specifications. As its popularity increased, the PROFIBUS DP specifications were extended to include a number of common but optional application profiles for e.g. safety, time stamping etc.. Similarly several application profiles were developed to meet the needs of specific device types, e.g. measuring devices, drives, remote I/O etc.. By the turn of the century, the PROFIBUS DP/PROFIBUS PA standard had covered many of the requirements of both Factory and Process Automation from field to control level - as shown by Fig. 2-1. It was rewarded by a large degree of support from both equipment manufactures and users, and today has an installed base of over 10,000,000 I/0 points.

PROFINET

At this point in time, however, Ethernet had already begun to work its way down from the office environment on to the factory floor, and was being seen as the future standard for control system backbones. Office Ethernet is in itself not suitable for control systems, since media access is stochchastic (CSMA/CD), not deterministic, so there was a need to develop a further standard for the operations level. The result is the PROFINET specification, which not only addresses the problems of deterministic control for real time and isochronic real time applications, but also those of network engineering, operation and I/O integration of control and fieldbus networks. PROFINET is only just at the beginning of its development, but promises many exciting solutions for the future. PROFIBUS is supported by PROFIBUS International, which is a world-wide association of PROFIBUS user organisations. It is responsible for the development of the standard, its maintenance, the conformance testing of PROFIBUS devices as well as the issuing of device certificates. It has a number of independent accredited PROFIBUS Competence Centers thoughout the world (one is located Endress+Hauser Process Solutions AG) which maintain test facilities that are accessible for users and offer training courses for prospective PROFIBUS engineers.

PROFINET

As can be seen from Fig. 2-1, PROFINET is the Ethernet-based automation standard of PROFIBUS International. It intended for use in a wide range of industrial applications, for example in: Production systems Assembly systems Systems in the automotive industries Systems in the food and beverage industries Packaging systems

PROFINET allows the implementation of distributed automation structures, integration of simple decentralized field devices as well as the operation of motion control applications. As can be seen in Fig. 2-2, each of these applications places different demands on the system with regard to response times and real time operation.

Fig. 2-2: PROFINET allows the parallel operation of several "Control Islands" via Ethernet TCP/IP

PROFINET recognises this fact and provides a modular solution which treats each application as a separate "Control Island". Such islands might be for example, a SCADA system for monitoring and operating the plant, a control network for flow, ratio and level control of a reactor, a complete filling machine or an industrial robot. PROFINET specifies those functions that allow implementation of an integrated automation solution from network installation to web-based diagnosis. The modular structure of PROFINET permits extremely easy expansion. PROFINET operates over a high speed (100 Mbit/s) switched Ethernet TCP/IP backbone. This ensures: Full duplex communication Isochronous communication Priorization of Real-Time Frames (Quality of Service) A specially developed PROFINET chip enables switch integration into a device and controller. The specification itself has two facets: PROFINET CbA (Component-based Automation) PROFINET I/O (Integration of PROFIBUS devices in PROFINET) These are discussed in more detail in the following sections

2.1.1

Component-based Automation

Component-based Automation is best explained by taking the practical example that PROFIBUS International uses in its own presentations, that of bottling in brewing or soft drinks production. The bottling is done by a number of machines that wash, fill, close and pack the bottles. Prior to this the product must be manufactured, a classical process control application. Fig. 2-3 illustrates the task in question.

Network architecture

The network architecture depends on the nature of the processes involved and the demands they make on control. Typically, however, the closing and packing of bottles are purely factory automation tasks requiring isochronous real time communication, washing and filling are hybrid tasks and the production of the beer or soft drink is a process automation task. Fig. 2-4 illustrates the type of architecture to be expected, the production process being a PROFIBUS DP/PA task and the washing and filling a typical PROFIBUS DP task today.

Technological module

PROFINET considers machines and systems to be divided into technological modules, each of which comprises of mechanical, electrical and software components. The functionality of the technological modules is encapsulated in the form of PROFINET components. These have standard interfaces for use in a PROFINET engineering tool. They can be used as building blocks, combined as required and are easily reused. The PROFINET components for all technological modules in a machine or component assembly are supplied by the manufacturer. on e.g. a CD-ROM.

2 Introduction to PROFIBUS

CbA engineering

The technological modules are basically Global Function Blocks for the machine or component assemblies in the plant and can be used within a PROFINET Engineering Tool to build up a logical view of the plant. The standard interfaces allow the logical sequences to be programmed in a graphical environment. Thus for instance, a connection between the "Finished" output of one machine to the "Start" input of another, will cause the appropriate message to be sent over Ethernet and the downstream machine will start up when the upstream machine has finished its task.

The Engineering Tool is also used to build up a view of the the PROFINET and PROFIBUS network, the technical modules forming the link between the two views. When the tool goes on-line, i.e. the various components are connected physically to the network, the logical project is downloaded to the connected machines and devices. The system can then be started up with preconfigured links.

PROFINET I/O devices

I/O integration

PROFINET allows direct interfacing of decentralized field devices on Ethernet. This supports flat communication hierarchies in automation. All the devices used are connected in a consistent network structure and therefore provide open communication throughout the entire production system. PROFINET defines three types of I/O device: I/O controller, the device containing the control program and managing data exchange to assigned field devices I/O device, the field device connected to the I/O controller I/O supervisor, the HMI and diagnostic station Fig. 2-7 shows the types of data that are exchanged between the three components.

2 Introduction to PROFIBUS

It can be seen that PROFINET uses Ethernet at three performance levels for communcation between I/O devices: Engineering and time-uncritical data are transferred via TCP/IP and DCOM. For time-critical process data, e.g. alarms, a real-time channel is available(RT). It is implemented as software based on available controllers. For motion control isochronous real-time communication (IRT) is available which allows jitter accuracy of 1 s at a clock rate of 1 ms. The integration of existing field bus applications is accomplished with the proxy concept. The proxy is the representative of the field bus devices on the PROFINET, see Fig. 2.4. The network management covers all the functions for the administration of PROFINET devices in Ethernet networks: Device and network configuration, e.g. issue of IP parameters based on standards like DHCP; Network diagnosis based on standards like SNMP Integration of Web functions, e.g. access to components by means of standard technologies from the Internet field such as HTTP, XML, HTML and addressing with scripting. Field device integration The signals from the (PROFIBUS DP/PA) field devices (decentralized peripherals) are processed directly in the assigned controller. The controller communicates with other PROFINET I/O devices via a proxy. Devices are integrated in the controller by means of standard GSD files. Integration of the decentralized field devices is an in the PROFINET system is optional add-on to distributed automation. Here a special GSD file, GSDML written in XML is used for integration. A combination of the standard and top-level integration can be implemented in a PROFINET network at any time. Installation The specific requirements for Ethernet networks in an industrial environment are: System-specific cable routing Specific degree of networking for each machine/system Linear network structures Rough industry-compatible cables and connectors with special requirements fulfilled in terms of EMC and temperature.

PROFINET installations are based on these principles and provide the device manufacturer with clear specifications for device interfaces and the wiring for them. The PROFINET Installation Guide provides the system manufacturer/operator with simple rules for the installation of Ethernet networks. More information on PROFINET can be found at www.profibus.com.

2 Introduction to PROFIBUS

2.2.1

Transmission standards

PROFIBUS provides for three different transmission technologies, RS-485, Fibre Optics and MBP (Manchester Coding/Bus Powered). Both RS-485 and IEC 61158-2 make provision for intrinsically safe transmission in hazardous areas. RS-485 RS-485 is used for tasks that require high transmission rates. The transmission technology is simple and cost-effective: no expert knowledge is required for installation of the cable. STP copper cable (shielded, twisted pairs) with one conductor pair is used. RS-485 allows a bus structure to be built that allows addition or removal of stations or the step-by-step commissioning of the system without influencing other stations. Subsequent expansions (within defined limits) have no effect on stations already in operation. The transmission rate can be set between 9.6 Kbit/s and 12 Mbit/s, however, all PROFIBUS DP within a system must operate at the same rate. Up to 32 stations (master or slaves) can be connected to a single segment. If more than 32 stations are required, repeaters may be used. The maximum permissible line length depends on the transmission rate. Four RS-485 cable types (Types A - D) for designed for different applications are available on the market. PI recommends the use of cable type A. More details on designing networks are to be found in Chapter 3. RS-485 IS RS-485 IS is a recent innovation in response to an increasing market demand for the use of RS-485 in explosion-hazardous areas. A corresponding PROFIBUS guideline is now available that specifies the configuration of intrinsically safe RS-485 solutions with simple device interchangeability. It details the current and voltage levels that must be adhered to by all stations in order to ensure safe functioning during interconnection. When active sources are connected, the sum of the currents of all stations must not exceed the maximum permissible current allowed by the circuitry. In contrast to the FISCO model (see below), all stations represent active sources. Up to 32 stations can be connected to the intrinsically safe bus circuit. IEC-61158-2 physical layer describes several connection technologies. PROFIBUS uses only one: MBP ("Manchester Coding" and "Bus Powered"). To avoid confusion, PROFIBUS International has decided to use MBP in all its literature in future. MBP is synchronous transmission at a defined transmission rate of 31.25 Kbit/s using Manchester coding. It is used in process automation as it also satisfies the key demands for intrinsic safety and two-wire bus power. MBP transmission technology is usually limited to specific segments within a plant, which are then linked to a RS485 segment via a segment coupler or link, see Chapter 4. Tree or line structures (and any combination of the two) are network topologies supported by PROFIBUS with MBP transmission with up to 32 stations per segment and max. 126 per network. FISCO Model The FISCO model (Fieldbus Intrinsically Safe Concept) considerably simplifies the planning, installation and expansion of PROFIBUS networks in explosion-hazardous areas. It stipulates that a network is intrinsically safe and requires no individual intrinsic safety calculations provided the four relevant bus components (field devices, cables, segment couplers and bus terminators) fall within predefined voltage, current, output, inductance and capacity limits. The corresponding proof is provided by certification of the components through authorized accreditation agencies, such as PTB and BVS (Germany) or UL and FM(USA). When FISCO-approved devices are used, not only is it possible to operate more devices on a single line, but the devices can also be replaced or the line can be expanded during operation without the need for time-consuming calculations or system certification. MBP with FISCO model is sometimes referred to as MBP-IS. Fiber optic transmission is used for fieldbus applications that preclude the use of copper wires, e.g. for environments with very high electromagnetic interference or when particularly large distances need to be covered. PROFIBUS guideline (2.021) for fiber optic transmission specifies the technology available for this purpose, including multimode and single mode glass fiber, plastic fiber, and HCS fiber. When determining these specifications, great care was naturally taken to allow problem-free integration of existing PROFIBUS devices in a fiber optic network without the need to change the protocol behavior of PROFIBUS. This ensures backward compatibility with existing PROFIBUS installations.

2.2.2

PROFIBUS DP communication protocol

PROFIBUS DP is designed for fast data exchange at control and field level. The exchange of data with distributed devices is primarily cyclic and the associated communication functions are specified by the basic PROFIBUS DP protocol (version DP-V0). The special demands of particular applications have meant that the basic functionality has been gradually expanded, so that now three versions are available: DP-V0, DP-V1 and DP-V2. All versions are specified in IEC 61158. System configuration and device types DP supports implementation of both mono-master and multi-master systems. This affords a high degree of flexibility during system configuration. A maximum of 126 devices (masters or slaves) can be connected to a bus. In mono-master systems, only one master is active on the bus during operation of the bus system. The device types are as follows: DP master class 1 (DPM1) is a central controller that cyclically exchanges information with the distributed stations (slaves) at a specified message cycle. Typical DPM1 devices are programmable logic controllers (PLCs) or PCs. A DPM1 has active bus access with which it can read measurement data (inputs) of the field devices and write the setpoint values (outputs) of the actuators at fixed times. This continuously repeating cycle is the basis of the automation function. DP master class 2 (DPM2) are engineering, configuration or operating devices. They are implemented during commissioning and for maintenance and diagnostics in order to configure connected devices, evaluate measured values and parameters and request the device status. A DPM2 does not have to be permanently connected to the bus system. The DPM2 also has active bus access . Slaves are peripherals (I/O devices, drives, HMIs, valves, transducers, analyzers) that read in process information and/or use output information to intervene in the process. There are also devices that solely process input information or output information. As far as communication is concerned, slaves are passive devices, they only respond to direct queries. This behavior is simple and cost-effective to implement (in the case of DP-V0 it is already completely included in the hardware). Figure 2-10 shows the system configuration of a mono-master system. The PLC is the central control component. The slaves are decentrally coupled to the PLC over the transmission medium. This system configuration enables the shortest bus cycle times. In multi-master systems several masters are connected to one bus. They represent either independent subsystems, comprising one DPM1 and its assigned slaves, or additional configuration and diagnostic devices.

Version DP-V0

Version DP-V0 provides the basic functionality for a mono-master architecture with high-speed, deterministic master-slave communication, see Fig. 2-10, including: cyclic data exchange station, module and channel-specific diagnostics four different interrupt types for diagnostics and process interrupts pulling and plugging of stations.

The master can be a personal computer or programmable logic controller.

Version DP-V1

Fig. 2-11 shows the standard architecture for PROFIBUS DP, Version DP-V1. This contains enhancements for process automation, in particular acyclic data communication for parameter assignment, operation, visualization and interrupt control of intelligent field devices from a so-called Class 2 master. In addition, it offer three additional interrupt types: status interrupt, update interrupt and a manufacturer-specific interrupt.

Cyclic and acyclic communication

Cyclic data communication between the DPM1 and its assigned slaves is automatically handled by the DPM1 in a defined, recurring sequence. The user defines the assignment of the slave(s) to the DPM1 when configuring the bus system. The user also defines which slaves are to be included/ excluded in the cyclic user data communication. Data communication between the DPM1 and the slaves is divided into parameterization, configuration and data transfer. Before the master includes a DP slave in the data transfer phase, a check is run during the parameterization and configuration phase to ensure the correct configuration. In addition to the station-related user data communication, which is automatically handled by the DPM1, the master can also send control commands to all slaves or a group of slaves simultaneously. These control commands are transmitted as multicast commands and enable sync and freeze modes for event-controlled synchronization of the slaves. For safety reasons, it is necessary to ensure that DP has effective protective functions against incorrect parameterization or failure of transmission equipment. For this purpose the DP master and the slaves are fitted with monitoring mechanisms in the form of time monitors. The monitoring interval is defined during configuration. Acyclic data communication is the key feature of version DP-V1. This forms the requirement for parameterization and calibration of the field devices over the bus during runtime and for the introduction of confirmed alarm messages. Transmission of acyclic data is executed parallel to cyclic data communication, but with lower priority. Addressing with slot and index is used both for cyclic and acyclic communication services. When addressing data, PROFIBUS assumes that the physical structure of the slaves is modular or can be structured internally in logical functional units, so-called modules. The slot number addresses the module and the index addresses the data blocks assigned to a module. Compact devices are regarded as a unit of virtual modules. These can also be addressed with slot number and index.

Version DP-V2

Version DP-V2 contains further enhancements to DP-V1 and is geared towards the demands of drive technology. Due to additional functionalities, such as isochronous slave mode and lateral slave communication (DXB) etc., DP-V2 can also be implemented as a drive bus for controlling fast movement sequences in drive axes.

Fig. 2-12: Slave-to-slave communication with Version DP-V2

The enhancements are as follows: Slave-to-Slave Communication enables direct, time-saving, communication between slaves without the detour over a master. Figure 2-12 shows the mechanism. On the command of the master, one slave acts as "publisher" and broadcasts its information to other slaves embedded in the sequence, the so-called "subscribers". This enables slaves to sense data from other slaves and use them as their own input. This not only opens up a new range of applications, it also reduces response times on the bus by up to 90 %. Isochronous mode enables clock synchronous control in masters and slaves, irrespective of the bus load. The function enables highly precise positioning processes with clock deviations of less than a microsecond. All participating device cycles are synchronized to the bus master cycle through a "global control" broadcast message. A special sign of life (consecutive number) allows monitoring of the synchronization. Clock control synchronizes all stations to a system time with a deviation of less than one millisecond. This allows the precise tracking of events. This is particularly useful for the acquisition of timing functions in networks with numerous masters. It facilitates the diagnostics of faults as well as the chronological planning of events. Upload and download allows the loading of any data area in a field device, irrespective of size, with a single command. This enables, for example, programs to be updated or devices replaced without the need for manual loading processes.

2.2.3

Application profiles

PROFIBUS offers a range of application profiles that simplify its use in specific industries or applications. Profiles are manufacturer and user specifications that determine properties, performance features and behavior for a particular set of devices or system. They take into account application, field device type characteristics, control features and the means of integration (engineering). Conformance with the profile facilitates device interoperability and interchangeability. A profile may encompass only a few specifications for a specific device class or extend to a set of comprehensive application specifications for a specific industry. PROFIBUS makes a distinction between common application profiles with implementation options for different applications, application profiles and system and master profiles. The common profiles include, for example, PROFIsafe, Redundancy and Time Stamp. PROFIdrive, SEMI or PA Devices are examples of application profiles. The system and master profiles describe the system performance that is available to field devices. A short description of PROFIsafe and PROFIdrive follows this section. More information on the other profiles can be found on the PROFIBUS web site www.profibus.org.

2.2.4

PROFIsafe

PROFIsafe is an optional, common application profile that allows safety-relevant devices to be connected to the same single transmission line as standard devices. These then communicate with an additional safety programmable logic controller or a combined standard/safety-controller. For applications such as presses, saws, robots, chemical processes, burners etc., special precautions are necessary to avoid risk to operators, environment or investment. Traditionally, safety systems are hard-wired, i.e. based on relays or a similar trusted and tangible technology. In recent years, however, safety automation has seen an influx of microcontrollers, software and communication networks, which have now been proven in use in millions of applications. The basis for their use is laid down in international safety standard IEC 61508. This details the measures required for the detection and management of errors and failures, together with the description of systematic software development processes. PROFIsafe merges standard automation and safety automation in one technology, thus providing higher efficiency to the user. It is available in products such as programmable and numerical controllers, remote I/Os, laser scanners, light curtains, motor starters, frequency converters, drives, gas and fire sensors etc.. Its safety measures are added to the device as a safety layer on top of the existing PROFIBUS layers in the communication stack. This layer is responsible for the transmission of safety relevant process data (safety application) as well as the unchanged existing standard application for non-safety critical functions, like e.g. diagnosis. PROFIsafe uses single-channel transfer and its error detection mechanisms are totally independent of the underlying PROFIBUS DP (black channel principle). The safety data are packed in the PROFIBUS telegram frame as a supplement to the standard data. This is then passed completely unmodified from a (safety) sender to a (safety) receiver no matter what kind of transmission system is used. Different industry requirements are taken into account. Factory automation deals with short signals processed at very high speed, while process automation involves longer process values that may take more time. PROFIsafe therefore offers two different process data lengths limited to a maximum of 12 bytes and 122 bytes respectively.

2.2.5

PROFIdrive

PROFIdrive is an application profile that addresses the specific requirements of motion control. It utilises the new functions realised in PROFIBUS Version DP-V2: clock cycle synchronisation and slave-to-slave communication. PROFIdrive allows intelligent drives to be used in decentralised automation structures. Digital servo-drives can also be synchronised and position control loops can be closed via PROFIBUS. Drive application classes The integration of drives into automation solutions depends strongly on the task of the drive. To simplify use, PROFIdrive defines the following generic application classes: Standard drive In the simplest case, the drive is controlled via a main setpoint (e.g. rational speed) by PROFIBUS. The complete closed-loop speed control is carried out in the drive controller. The application case is employed primarily in the area of conventional drive technology, e.g. in conveying systems. Standard drive with technological function This class is a very flexible variant for realising automation applications. This involves breaking down the entire automation process into several small subprocesses. The automation functions are no longer located exclusively in the central automation drive but can be distributed in the drive controllers. In this respect, PROFIBUS serves as the technology interface. Distribution of automation functions assumes that communication is possible in all directions. Thus slave-toslave communication is required, e.g. between setpoint cascades, winders and applications for rotational speed synchronisation for continuous web processes. Positioning drive In addition to the drive controller, the drive also contains a position controller. Positioning tasks are forwarded to the drive controller and started by PROFIBUS. Position drives have a very wide scope of application, for example, the twisting on and off of lids in a bottling plant, or the positioning of knives in a foil-cutting maschine. Device model PROFIdrive defines a device model as it can be found - at least partly - in any drive system. The device comprises multiple functional modules which work together and thereby reflect the intelligence of the drive system. Objects are assigned to these functional modules, which then constitute the interface to the automation process. The objects are described and their functions defined in the profile. Parameters are assigned to the objects, which are collectively referred to as the "profile parameters". These include such functions as fault buffers, drive control, device identification, process data configuration and the overall parameter list. All other parameters, which can number more than 1000 in the case of complex devices, are manufacturer-specific. This provides the producers with the utmost flexibility in realising control functions such as ramp-function generators. The profile does not determine the parameters of the latter, although it does determine its interface to the control program through the control word. This means that the control system remains identical, even if a user changes the drive manufacturer. Since control and parameter creation tools are manufacturer-specific, they can determine and visualise all the parameter information either directly from the drive or from a device description file. Central motion control Robotics and tool maschine applications call for a coordinated motional sequence of muliple drives. The motion is controlled mostly with the aid of a central numerical control system (CNC). The position control loop is closed via the bus. The clock cycle synchronisation from PROFIBUS Version DP-V2 is employed in order to synchronise the clock pulses of the position controller in the control system and the controllers in the devices. The stiffness and the dynamics of the control loop can be increased significantly by simple means with the aid of the new "dynamic servo control" position control concept that is also decripted in the profile. Thanks to this concept, even highly demanding applications with linear motors can be realised.

Integration technologies

Modern field devices in both Factory and Process Automation provide a wide range of information and execute functions that were previously in the domain of PLCs and control systems. For this reason, tools for commissioning, maintenance, engineering, and parameterization of these devices require an exact and complete description of device data and functions. This includes type of application function, configuration parameters, range of values, units of measurement, default values, limit values, identification, etc. The same applies to the controller/control system, the device-specific parameters and data formats of which must also be made known (integrated) to ensure error-free data exchange with the field devices. PROFIBUS has developed a number of methods and tools ("integration technologies", GSD, EDD and DTM) which enable standardization of device management. The performance range of these tools is optimized to specific tasks (simplest handling, device-tuning at runtime,etc.), which has given rise to the term scaleable device integration. GSD and EDD are both types of "Electronic device data sheets", developed with different languages, whilst a DTM (Device Type Manager) is a software component containing specific field device functions for parameterization, configuration, diagnostics and maintenance, generated by mapping and to be used together with the universal software interface FDT (Field Device Tool), which is able to implement software components. More information on GSD files are to be found in Chapters 3 and 4. Information on EDD can be found on the PROFIBUS site www-profibus.com. A short overview of FDT technology is to be found in Section 2.4.

2.2.7

Quality assurance

In order for PROFIBUS devices of different types and manufacturers to correctly fulfil their tasks in the automation process, it is essential to ensure error-free exchange of information over the bus. This requires an implementation of communications protocol and application profiles in compliance with the standard. To ensure that this requirement is fulfilled, the PNO has established a quality assurance procedure, whereby on the basis of test reports, certificates are issued to devices that successfully complete the test . The certification procedure is based on European standard EN 45 000. The PROFIBUS User Organization has approved independent test laboratories in accordance with the specifications of this standard. Only these test laboratories are authorized to carry out device tests that form the basis for certification. The test procedure, which is the same for all test laboratories, is made up of several parts: GSD/EDD Check: ensures that the device description files comply to the specification. Hardware Test: tests the electrical characteristics of the devices PROFIBUS interface for compliance to the specifications. This includes terminating resistors, suitability of the implemented drivers and other modules and the quality of line level. Function Test: examines the bus access and transmission protocol and the functionality of the test device. Conformity Test: forms the main part of the test. The object is to test conformity of the protocol implementation with the standard. Interoperability Test: checks the test device for interoperability with PROFIBUS devices of other manufacturers in a multi-vendor plant. This checks that the functionality of the plant is maintained when the test device is added. Operation is also tested with different masters. Once a device has successfully passed all the tests, the manufacturer can apply for a certificate from the PROFIBUS User Organization. Each certified device contains a certification number as a reference. The certificate is valid for 3 years but can be extended after the devices undergoes a further test.

PROFIBUS PA

PROFIBUS PA (Process Automation) is an extension of PROFIBUS DP tailored to the requirements of process automation. It has two main characteristics: Participants can draw (intrinsically safe) power from the bus Data transfer is handled according to the international standard IEC 61158-2. PROFIBUS PA was designed to provide an economic and versatile replacement for convention process control systems, as shown in Fig. 2-13.

One obvious advantage of PROFIBUS is the substution of point-to-point wiring, marshalling racks, barriers and power supplies by a single bus cable. The technology also leaves a much smaller footprint in the control cabinet. The other benefits are less tangible, but more important economically. Digital communication allows comfortable commissioning of field devices from the control room. Individual devices can not only be configured from a personal computer but the settings can also be archived centrally. If there are several identical measuring points in an application, the stored parameters can be downloaded to the devices. An individual configuration of each device is no longer necessary. Other benefits lie in operation and maintenance. PROFIBUS PA devices (and their DP equivalents) offer more information. Every parameter in the device can be accessed, provided an appropriate tool is available. By using Endress+Hausers FieldCare asset management tool, for instance, the device status can be monitored and reports on device health can be generated as desired. The device serial number can also be read, and linked via Internet to a common equipment record at Endress+Hauser that contains the device history. The same parameter also gives access to spare parts and e-business ordering procedures.

Fig. 2-14: Prozess automation with PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS PA

Fig. 2-14 shows a typical architecture: The process is controlled by a process control system or a programmable logic controller (PLC). The control system or PLC serves as a Class 1 master. It uses the cyclic services to acquire measurements and output control commands. The operating program, e.g. FieldCare, serves as a Class 2 master. It uses the acyclic services and serves to configure the bus participants during installation and normal operation. The PROFIBUS DP system is used to handle the communication at the control level. Drives, remote I/Os etc. may all be found upon the bus. It is also possible to connect externally powered field devices to this level, e.g. the flowmeters Promass and Promag. PROFIBUS DP ensures that data are quickly exchanged, whereby in mixed PROFIBUS DP/PA systems the baudrate supported by the segment coupler is often the limiting factor. PROFIBUS PA is used at field level. The segment coupler serves both as interface to the PROFIBUS-DP system and as power supply for the PROFIBUS PA field devices. Depending upon the type of segment coupler, the PROFIBUS PA segment can be installed in safe or hazardous areas. The practical implementation of such an architecture is the subject of this manual.

2 Introduction to PROFIBUS

2.3.1

Operating principle

The PROFIBUS PA bus system is powered by a segment coupler. The field devices function as current sinks and draw a direct current of about 10 mA from the bus cable (some participants require more). This current supplies the energy necessary for operation. If a field device transmits data, it does so by modulating the current by 9 mA. The functional principle is displayed in Fig 3.8. When it is transmitting data, the fieldbus acts as an ohmic resistance. Since the device does not output power, the intrinsic safety of a bus segment is largely determined by the current and voltage limitations placed on the bus power supply (segment coupler). In order that a field device does not block the bus should it fail, its maximum current consumption is limited by the so-called fault disconnection electronics (FDE). This current must be considered when the segment is planned. See corresponding examples in Chapter 5.6.

Fig. 2-15: Function of a PROFIBUS PA device

Fault disconnection electronics

An important requirement for participants on a PROFIBUS PA segment, is that a defective device may not detrimentally effect the functioning of the system. The fault disconnection electronics ensure that high current consumption is not possible. An electronic circuit detects the rise in the basis current above the specified manufacturer's value and either limits the current consumption or isolates the participant from the bus. The increase in basic current above the normal value in the event of a fault is designated the fault current.

2.3.2

Applications in hazardous areas

The explosion protection concept for the PROFIBUS PA fieldbus is based on the type of protection "intrinsic safety i". In contrast to other types of explosion protection, intrinsic safety is not confined to the individual unit, but extends over the entire electrical circuit. All circuits connected to the PROFIBUS PA fieldbus must be realised with type of protection "intrinsic safety", i.e. all devices and terminators that are installed in hazardous areas as well as all associated electrical apparatus (e.g. PA links or segment couplers) must be approved for the corresponding atmospheres. FISCO model In order to reduce the proof of intrinsic safety of the fieldbus system, comprising different devices from different vendors, to a justifiable level, the German PTB and various equipment manufacturers developed the FISCO model (Fieldbus Intrinsically Safe COncept). Further information on FISCO is to be found in Chapter 3.8. The basic idea is that only one device supplies power to a particular fieldbus segment. The model determines the boundary conditions. The field devices are divided into those that draw their power from the bus itself and those that must be powered locally. In addition to the type of protection "intrinsic safety", the latter devices, which require more energy, must also exhibit a further type of protection. The auxiliary energy required by the segment coupler and the locally powered devices is galvanically isolated from the intrinsically safe circuits. As is the case for all intrinsic circuits, special precautions must be observed when installing the bus. The aim is to maintain the separation between the intrinsically safe and all other circuits. Grounding The intrinsically safe fieldbus circuit is operated earth-free, which does not preclude that individual sensor circuits can be connected to ground. If a overvoltage protector is installed before the device, it must be bonded to the plant grounding system in accordance with the instructions in the certificate or device manual. Particular attention must be paid to the grounding of the conducting cable screening because if it is to be earthed at several positions, a high integrity plant grounding system must be present. The category of the intrinsically safe field bus is determined by the circuit with the worst rating, i.e. if the fieldbus circuit of one device has the type of protection EEx ib, then the whole fieldbus falls in the category ib. Devices that must be connected to a circuit with type of protection EEx ia (requirements as per certificate) may not be operated on field bus circuits with type of protection ib. Only circuits that are connected directly to the fieldbus must be considered here. Devices that are approved for different explosion groups (IIC, IIB or IIA) can be operated on the same segment. The permissible explosive atmosphere allowed at a particular device is determined by the type of protection of that device as well as the explosion group for which the segment coupler is approved. All devices and terminators that are installed in hazardous areas as well as all associated electrical apparatus (e.g. PA links or segment couplers) must be approved for the corresponding atmospheres, e.g. PTB, BVS, FMRC, CSA etc.).

Field Device Tool (FDT)

Field Device Tool (FDT) provides a standard interface, open to all communication protocols and software environments that allows any device to be accessed from any host through any protocol. The essential parts of FDT technology are the frame application and the so-called Device Type Managers (DTMs), which are available for field devices and communication equipment, see Fig. 2-16 The two components could be likened to the Print Manager in a Windows Office program and the Print Drivers that must be installed to make printers work and which contain a graphical user interface for their configuration.

Fig. 2-16: Schematic diagram of FDT frame

FDT Frame

The FDT frame communicates with the hosting or stand-alone application and the device drivers via a set of standardised interfaces. All data are exchanged through these interfaces, including those generated within the application for engineering, DTM management and device configuration. It is no longer necessary to use proprietary interfaces to operate devices or build up communication paths. Frame applications can be device configuration tools, control system-engineering tools, operator consoles or asset management tools. The frame application is also open to all communication technologies, e.g. for HART, PROFIBUS and FOUNDATION Fieldbus, see Fig 2-16. Proprietary service bus protocols can also be integrated simply into the frame application because of the standardised interface. The device DTM is a software driver developed by the device manufacturer for each of his devices or group of devices. The DTM encapsulates all the device-specific data, functions and management rules such as the device functions, its communication capabilities, internal data structure and dependencies as well as the user interface elements. It provides functions for accessing device parameters, configuring and operating the devices, calibrating, and diagnosing problems. DTMs can range from a simple user interface for setting device parameters to a highly sophisticated application. They may perform complex calculations for diagnosis and maintenance purposes or display results in the form of curves, trends and other graphical elements. For communication equipment, such as gateways, multiplexers and other hardware interfaces a CommDTM is required. Like any communication driver, this converts data from one protocol to another, but with the difference that the integration into the system is via a standardised FDT rather than a proprietary interface. This means that users wishing to integrate existing communication equipment into a FDT frame application require only the corresponding CommDTMs. Similarly, vendors need only modify their existing drivers to include a FDT interface and their equipment can be integrated into any FDT frame application.

2 Introduction to PROFIBUS

FDT also includes the concept of 'Nested Communication', so that with the aid of CommDTMs, the communication hierarchies found in the plant can be replicated simply in the hosting configuration tool. In this way, the FDT architecture eliminates the integration problems that normally occur when different devices must communicate with each other. It also provides transparent access to data at all system levels.

The FDT standard uses XML and of is modular construction, each standardised interface reflecting a certain functionality such as configuration or display of measured values. This scalable approach allows DTMs to be developed that exactly match device capabilities and keep up improvements within its life-cycle. There is no reduction of functionality here. FDT is also extendable: new interfaces can be added to cater for functional system enhancements. Not only does this ensure that the standard will keep pace with technical advance, it also ensures that future developments will not affect existing solutions. DTM Production A Device Type Manager file can written from scratch or be produced from a EDD or HART DD file by running the latter through a special DTM compiler. The Comm DTM is a separate entity that is used to map the communication infrastructure existing in the field. The DTM compilation process is largely automatic and as long as an EDD or HCF DD file exists for the device, a corresponding DTM can be produced. This makes the integration of legacy HART or PROFIBUS devices into an FDT frame application a practical proposition. The FDT tool can then run in parallel to the existing system device configuration tool. For new FDT based installations, the frame application may be stand-alone or integrated into the control system. This has enormous benefits for the user, since he has freedom of choice in the components he uses. Any device or communication component with a device DTM or Comm DTM will operate in any FDT-based configuration tool. Seen for the operators point of view: a single FDT frame can be used to operate a range of devices from a number of different vendor.

Application

PROFIBUS DP is used primarily for factory automation. In PROFIBUS PA systems for process automation, a PROFIBUS DP system is used at the control level for quick transmission of the data. Here, PROFIBUS DP-V1 is normally used. In addition to the cyclic exchange of data with a PLC, DP-V1 allows the field devices to be configured via acyclic services. The principle technical data for PROFIBUS DP are listed in Table 3-1 below.

Topology

PROFIBUS DP is based on a linear topology. For lower data transmission rates, a tree structure is also possible. Cable (Type A) EN 50 170 specifies two types of bus cable. For transmission rates up to 12 Mbit/s, cable type A is recommended. The specification is given in Table 3-3:
Terminator Cable capacitance Core cross-section Cable type Loop resistance Signal attenuation Screening 135 to165 at a measuring frequency of 3 MHz to 20 MHz < 30pF per Meter > 0.34 mm, corresponds to AWG 22 twisted pairs, 1x 2, 2x 2 or 1x 4 core 110 per km max. 9 dB over the entire length of the segment woven copper sheath or woven sheath and foil sheath Table 3-3: Specifications of Cable Type A

Structure

The following points should be noted when the bus structure is being planned: The max. permissible cable length depends upon the transmission rate. For PROFIBUS RS-485 cable of type A (see table 2.3) the dependency is as follows:
Transmission rate (kBit/s) Cable length (m) 9.6; 19.2; 45.45; 93.75 1200 187.5 1000 500 400 1500 200 3000; 6000; 12000 100

A maximum of 32 participants per segment is allowed A terminating resistance must be installed at both ends of every segment (ohmic load 220 ) The cable length and/or the number of participants can be increased by using repeaters If repeaters are used: The first and last segment may contain up to 31 particpants, the segments between repeaters may contain up to 30 participants. The maximum distance between two participants is: (NO_REP +1) * Segment length where = NO_REP = max number of repeaters that may be used in series (dependent on type).

Example: According to a manufacturers specifications, up to 9 repeaters can be connected in series on a standard line. The maximum distance between two bus participants for a transmission speed of 1.5 MBit/s is thus: (9+1)*200 m = 2000 m

Spurs

A spur is the cable connecting the field device to the T-box on the bus.

"
Examples

Caution! As a rule of thumb: For transmission rates up to 1.5 MBit/s, the total length (sum) of the spurs may not exceed 6.6 m Spurs should not be used for transmission rates greater than 1.5 MBit/s. Figs 3-2 and 3-3 show examples for a linear and tree bus structure. Fig 3-2. shows that three repeaters are necessary if the PROFIBUS DP system is to be developed to the full. The maximum cable length corresponds to 4x the value quoted in the table above. Since three repeaters are used, the maximum number of participants is reduced to 120. Fig 3-3 shows how several repeaters can be used to create a tree structure. The number of participants allowable per segment is reduced by one per repeater.

Optical network

If the PROFIBUS DP system has to be routed over large distances or in plant with heavy electromagnetic interference, then an optical or mixed optical/copper network can be used. Provided that all participants support them, very high transmission rates are possible. Fig. 3-4 shows a possible structure for an optical network, whereby the technical details can be taken from the PROFIBUS standard.

3.3

Bus access method

PROFIBUS DP uses a hybrid access method of centralised master/slave and decentralised token passing, see Fig. 3-5. The masters build a logical token ring. When a master possesses the token, it has the right to transmit. It can now talk with its slaves in a master-slave relationship for a defined period of time. At the end of this time, the token must be passed on to the next active device in the token ring. Master class PROFIBUS DP version DP-V1 differentiates between two classes of master: A Class 1 master communicates cyclically with its slaves. The master communicates only with those slaves that are assigned to it. A slave may be assigned to only one Class 1 master. A typical class 1 master is a programmable logic controller (PLC) or a process control system. A Class 2 master communicates acyclically with its slaves, i.e. on demand. Its slaves may also be assigned to a Class 1 master. A typical example is a PC with corresponding operating software, e.g. FieldCare - Plant Asset Management Tool. It is used for commissioning as well as for device configuration, diagnosis and alarm handling during normal operation. If a PROFIBUS-DP network has more than one master e.g. because both cyclic and acyclic services are required, then it is a multi-master system. If, for example, a PLC only is used for control tasks, then the system is a mono-master system.
Master 1, Class 1 has the right to transmit. Data are exchanged cyclically.

Class 1

logical token ring between master participants

Master 2, Class 2 receives the right to transmit. It can talk to all slaves. Data exchage, e.g. with slave 3 is acyclic.

3.4
Data transmission

Network configuration

Data are exchanged over PROFIBUS DP by means of standard telegrams which are transmitted via the RS-485 interface. The permissible telegram length of reference data is specified in the PROFIBUS DP protocol at 244 bytes. it should be noted, however, that some controllers only support an maximum telegram length of 122 bytes. The PROFIBUS DP devices manufactured by Endress+Hauser may transmit both input and output values, see also Table 5.17. In general: Measured value and status inputs are transmitted in 5 bytes. Display values and status outputs are transmitted in 5 bytes Control output values generally require 1 byte per action, the actual number available being dependent upon device. An instrument with several measured values can transmit correspondingly more bytes. In the case of the flowmeter Promass 63, for example, a cyclic telegram up to 37 bytes (25 bytes input and 12 byte output data) is transmitted at maximum configuration, see Section 3.4.2. The values to be transmitted are determined during the commissioning of the network. The total number of inputs and outputs enabled then determine the telegram length. The same telegram is used for transmission to and from the PLC.

GSD (device database file)

In order to integrate the field devices into the bus system, the PROFIBUS DP system requires a description of the device parameters such as output data, input data, data format, data length and the transmission rates supported. These data are contained in the GSD device database file, which is required by the PROFIBUS DP master during the commissioning of the communication system. In addition, device bit maps are required, which appear as icons in the network tree. Further information on device database files is to be found in Chapter 7.2. A prerequisite for communication on the bus is the correct addressing of the participants. Every participant in the PROFIBUS DP system is assigned a unique address between 0 and 125 (cyclic data transmission). Normally the low addresses are assigned to the masters. The addresses may be assigned by DIP switch, on-site operating elements or by an operating program, e.g. FieldCare. The exact way in which this is done should be taken from the appropriate device manual. For Endress+Hauser devices, the factory default address is always 126. This must be changed during commissioning and no device in the system should use it for cyclic communication.

Bus address

Transmission rate

All participants in a PROFIBUS DP system must support the governing transmission rate. This means that the speed of data exchange is determined by the slowest participant. In the case of Endress+Hauser devices that are designed for PROFIBUS DP, all transmission rates from 9.6 kbits/ s to 12 Mbit/s are supported. For other manufacturers, please consult the relevant operating manual. In addition to the transmission rate, all active participants on the bus must operate with the same bus parameters. If FieldCare is in use, the bus parameters can be set by using the corresponding Communication DTM for PROFIBUS. Individual device rates are set within their DTMs. More information on bus parameters are to be found in the Chapter 4.

Applications in hazardous areas

All devices and terminators that are installed in hazardous areas as well as all associated electrical apparatus (e.g. PA links or segment couplers) must be approved for the corresponding atmospheres. RS-485 IS RS-485 IS is a recent innovation in response to an increasing market demand for the use of RS-485 in explosion-hazardous areas. A corresponding PROFIBUS guideline is now available that specifies the configuration of intrinsically safe RS-485 solutions with simple device interchangeability. In contrast to the FISCO model (see Chapters 2.2.1 and 6.1), for which there is only one active supply device per segment, all stations represent active sources. The devices are supplied with external energy and can supply this to the bus. RS-485 IS segments are coupled to RS-485 safe segments by means of so-called "Fieldbus Isolating Repeaters". Up to 32 stations can be connected to the intrinsically safe bus circuit, provided the conditions in Table 3-7 arre upheld. More details can be found in the specification. Endress+Hauser devices do not support RS-485 IS at the present moment, but offers equivalent solutions with standard devices. The following table shows all safety-relevant values for the entire bus system.

3 PROFIBUS DP basics

If a PROFIBUS DP segment runs through an explosiion hazardous area, it must be executed with a degree of protection "increased safety" "e". For copper cabling, the number of devices per segment is limited to four. Proof of instrinsic safety is required for every segment, since every intrinsically safe component has different electrical characteristics. The cable and spurs must be included in the calculation. Exchange of a component from one manufacturer by a component from another manufacture is always requires renewed proof of intrinsic safety. Mixed network PROFIBUS DP/PA Since PROFIBUS PA systems are designed for use in hazardous areas, it is much easier install a segment there. For this reason, a PROFIBUS PA segment is used to extend the PROFIBUS DP segment into a hazardous area. PROFIBUS PA networks are connected to PROFIBUS DP networks by a segment coupler or link, see Chapter 3.2.

4.1
Application

Synopsis

PROFIBUS-PA has been designed to satisfy the requirements of process engineering. There are three major differences to a PROFIBUS DP system: PROFIBUS PA supports the use of devices in explosion hazardous areas without the need for specific proof of intrinsic safety. The devices can be powered over the bus cable (two-wire devices). The data are transferred via the IEC 61158-2 physical layer (MBP), which allows great freedom in the selection of the bus topology. The most important technical data are listed in Table 4-1.

Participants

Depending upon the application, the participants on a PROFIBUS PA segment might be actuators, sensors and a segment coupler or link, see Chapter 4.2. Endress+Hauser offers PROFIBUS PA instrumentation for the most important process variables, i.e. analysis, flow, level, pressure and temperature. A complete list is to be found in Chapter 10.

Segment coupler and links

PROFIBUS PA is always used in conjunction with a supervisory PROFIBUS DP control system. Since the physical layer and transmission rates of PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS PA are different, see Tables 3-1 and 4-1, the PROFIBUS PA segment is connected to the PROFIBUS DP system via a segment coupler or link. Segment couplers are signal converters that modulate the RS485 signals to the MBP signal level and vice versa. They are transparent from the bus protocol standpoint. In contrast, links have their own intrinsic intelligence. They map all the field devices connected to the MBP segment as a single slave in the RS485 segment.

Link

A link comprises an intelligent interface and one or more segment couplers, whereby the couplers may exhibit different types of protection. Normally, a range of transmission rates are supported on the PROFIBUS DP side. The transmission rate for PROFIBUS PA is fixed at 31.25 kbit/s. Links differ from pure segment couplers by the fact that they are PROFIBUS DP slaves on one side and PROFIBUS PA masters on the other. There is no direct communication between the PROFIBUS DP master and the PROFIBUS PA slaves, i.e. the link is not transparent. Futher information is to be found in the sections on addressing and cycle times.

Cable type

The fieldbus comprises two-core cable. According to IEC 61158-2 (MBP), four different cable types (A, B, C, D) can be used, only two of which (cable types A and B) are shielded. Cable types A or B are recommended for new installations. Their cable shielding guarantee adequate protection from electromagnetic interference and thus the most reliable data transfer. On multi-pair cables (Type B), it is permissible to operate multiple fieldbuses (with the same degree of protection) on one cable. No other circuits are permissible in the same cable. Practical experience has shown that cable types C and D should not be avoided where possible since the lack of shielding means that electromagnetic interference characteristics generally do not meet the requirements described in the standard. Table 4-4 lists the technical data of the four cable types as taken from the informative annex to the standard (i.e. this has not actually been specified.) The electrical data determine important characteristics of the design of the fieldbus, such as distances bridged, number of participants, electromagnetic compatibility, etc.

As far as the specification is concerned, a maximum of: 32 stations per segment in safe areas 10 stations in an explosive hazardous arrea (EEx ia IIC) are possible. The actual number of stations is dependent on several factors, however, and must be determined during project planning. The start and end of each fieldbus segment must be terminated with a bus terminator. The terminator may be a separate component or be integrated into a bus component.

Bus termination

Note! If the segment is in an explosion hazardous area, the terminators must be certified to the FISCO standard. In the case of a branched bus segment, the device furthest from the segment coupler represents the end of the bus. If the fieldbus is extended with a repeater then the extension must also be terminated at both ends.

Bus access method

PROFIBUS PA uses the central master/slave method to regulate bus access. The process near component, e.g. a PLC, is a Class 1 master that is installed in the PROFIBUS DP system. The field devices are configured from a PROFIBUS PA Class 2 master, e.g. FieldCare. The field devices on the PROFIBUS PA segment are the slaves.

4.4.1

Segment coupler

Segment couplers are transparent as far as the PROFIBUS DP master is concerned, so that they are not mapped in the PLC. They simply convert the signals and power the PROFIBUS PA segment. The do not need to be configured nor are they assigned an address. The field devices in the PROFIBUS PA segment are each assigned a PROFIBUS DP address and behave as PROFIBUS DP slaves. A slave may be assigned to only one Class 1 master. A master communicates directly with its slaves: A Class 1 master, e.g. the PLC, uses the cyclic polling services to fetch the data provided by the field devices. A Class 2 master, e.g. FieldCare, transmits and receives field device data by using the acyclic services.

Segment coupler SK1 from Pepperl+Fuchs

If the SK1 segment coupler is used, the transfer rate for the PROFIBUS DP is fixed at 93.75 kBd. In this case, if type A cable is used for the PROFIBUS DP the PROFIBUS DP segment can be up to a length of 1200 m. The length of the PROFIBUS PA segment depends on: whether the PROFIBUS PA segment in question is intrinsically safe or not. how many PROFIBUS PA stations are connected to the segment. how high is the current consumption of the individual PA slaves. how the PA slaves are distributed on the PROFIBUS PA segment.

The SK1 segment coupler works transparently. This means that PROFIBUS DP masters have direct access to every PROFIBUS PA slave. Addresses that have been assigned on a PROFIBUS PA segment are also occupied on the PROFIBUS DP.

Gateway-type segment coupler

This type of segment coupler allows several segments to be connected to one central coupler unit, whilst retaining the transparency of the unit. For the user, however, it operates in exactly the same manner as the normal segment coupler, see Fig. 4-5.

Segment coupler SK2 from Pepperl+Fuchs

The SK2 segment coupler is a modular unit comprising power pack, gateway with up to four channels and up to 20 power links. The power links supply (intrinsically safe) power to their segments, whilst the gateway couples the PROFIBUS PA devices to the PROFIBUS-DP network. A maximum of five power links per channel is allowed. The SKs has the following properties: No restriction on PROFIBUS PA data volume (244 Byte I/O per slave possible) Support of PROFIBUS DP transfer rates (45,45 kBd... 12 MBd) No addressing of the segment coupler, either PROFIBUS DP or PROFIBUS PA Direct access for the PROFIBUS DP master to the PROFIBUS PA slave (transparency).

The major difference to a standard segment coupler is the variable transmission rate on the DP side. This allows better cycle times to be attained in mixed DP/PA systems.

Note! When a SK2 coupler is used in a PROFIBUS network, the GSD files of the PROFIBUS PA slaves to be connected to it must be converted using a special program supplied by Pepperl+Fuchs. Despite the conversion, the PNO certificates for these devices still retain their validity. No PROFIBUS PA slave may be assigned the address 1.

4.4.3

Links

In contrast to a segment coupler, a link is recognised by the PROFIBUS DP master and is a participant in the PROFIBUS DP system. It is assigned a PROFIBUS DP address and thus becomes opaque to the master. The field devices on the PROFIBUS PA side can no longer be directly polled using the cyclic services. Instead, the link collects the device data in a buffer, which can be read cyclically by a Class 1 master. Hence a link must be mapped in the PLC. On the PROFIBUS PA side, the link acts as the PA master. It polls the field device data cyclically and stores them in a buffer. Every field device is assigned a PROFIBUS PA address that is unique for the link, bit which may be used in a segment connected to another link. When the link is accessed by a Class 2 master with the acyclic services it is quasi-transparent. The desired field device can be accessed by specifying the link address (DP address) and the device address (PA address).

Siemens DP-/PA link

The Siemens DP/PA link acts as described above. It supports PROFIBUS DP transmission rates from 9.6 kBit/s up to 12MBit/s. As indicated, the DP/PA link is not transparent and must be planned in the PLC or control system by means of a GSD file. Among other things, all the cyclic I/O data of the connected slaves must be entered into this file. In order to facilitate the generation of a project specific GSD file for the link, Siemens supplies a special software application. The link is limited in the amount of PROFIBUS PA data it can transmit. The total amount of cyclic I/O data permitted, i.e. the accumulated total from all PROFIBUS PA devices connected to the link, is 244 bytes for input and 244 bytes for output data.

Data transmission

Network Configuration

Data exchange on the PROFIBUS PA segment is handled by the IEC 61158-2 interface. The cyclic and acyclic polling services are used to transmit data. Since the PROFIBUS PA standard offers the possibility of interconnecting devices from different vendors, a profile set has been defined that contains standardised device parameters and functions: Mandatory parameters: Every device must provide these parameters. These are parameters, with which the basic parameters of the device can be read or configured. Application parameters: These are optional parameters. These parameters allow a calibration and, e.g., additional functions such as a linearisation to be performed. In view of the fact that these functions are dependent upon the measured variable, there are several profile sets, e.g. for level, pressure, flow etc.. The parameters can be accessed acyclically and require a Class 2 master, e.g. FieldCare, if they are to be read or modified. Cyclic data exchanged is handled by standard telegrams. The permissible telegram length depends upon the master used: according PROFIBUS PA-standard, 244 bytes for inputs and 244 bytes for outputs. For PROFIBUS PA devices, analogue measured values and status are transmitted in 5 bytes. If a device offers more values, more bytes may be transmitted, see Chapter 3.4. In the case of the level limit swich Liquiphant M/S, the limit signals are transmitted in 2 bytes per channel. Byte 1 contains the signal condition, byte 2 the status.

GSD (device database file)

In order to integrate the field devices into the bus system, the PROFIBUS DP system requires a description of the device parameters such as output data, input data, data format, data length and the transmission rates supported. These data are contained in the GSD device database file, which is required by the PROFIBUS DP master during the commissioning of the communication system. In addition, device bit maps are required, which appear as icons in the network tree. Further information on device database files is to be found in Chapter 7.2. A pre-requisite for communication on the bus is the correct addressing of the participants. Every device on the PROFIBUS PA segment is assigned a unique address between 0 and 125. The addressing is dependent upon the type of DP-/PA-interface used (segment coupler or link) and is set by DIP switches, via on-site operating elements or by software. The addressing procedure is described in detail in Chapter 5.5. The transmission rate on a PROFIBUS PA segment is fixed at 31.25 kbit/s. The transmission rate on PROFIBUS DP is dependent upon the application and the type of DP-/PA-interface used (segment coupler or link). In addition to the transmission rate, all active participants on the bus must operate with the same bus parameters. For the operating and display program Commuwin II, the bus parameters can be set by using the DPV1-DDE server (submenu Parameter Settings). For FieldCare the bus parameters can be set by using the corresponding Communication-DTM.

FISCO

To render the proof of Intrinsic Safety as simple as possible, the so-called FISCO model was developed. FISCO stands for Fieldbus Intrinsically Safe COncept. The German PTB (Federal Technical Institute) developed the FISCO model and has published details in Report PTB-W-53 "Examination of intrinsic safety for fieldbus systems. This model is based on the following prerequisites: 1. To transmit power and data, the bus system uses the physical configuration defined by IEC 61158-2. This is the case for PROFIBUS PA. 2. Only one active source is permitted on a bus segment (in this case the segment coupler). All other components work as passive current sinks. 3. The basic current consumption of a bus station is at least 10 mA. 4. It must be ensured for each bus station that Ui > Uo of the segment coupler/power link Ii > Io of the segment coupler/power link Pi > Po of the segment coupler/power link 5. Each bus station must fulfill the following requirement: Ci < 5 nFLi Li < 10 H 6. The permissible line length for EEx ia IIC applications is 1000 m. 7. The permissible spur length for Ex applications is 30 m per spur. The definition of the spur must be observed in this connection (= lines longer than 1 m). 8. The bus cable used must conform to the following cable parameters: Specific resistance: 15 /km < R' < 150 /km Specific inductance: 0.4 mH/Km < L' < 1 mH/km Specific capacitance: 80 nF/km < C' < 200 nF/km (including the shield) Taking the shield into consideration, the specific capacitance is calculated as follows: C' = C'conductor/conductor + 0.5 * C'conductor/shield, if the bus line is potential free or C' = C'shield/shield + C'conductor/shield, if the shield is connected with a terminal of the segment coupler/power link. 9. The bus segment must be terminated on both ends with a fieldbus terminator. According to the FISCO model the terminal bus resistance must conform to the following limits: 90 < R < 100 0 F < C < 2.2 F On condition that the points 1 up to 9 are all satisfied, the proof of intrinsic safety has been provided by means of the FISCO model. Points 1, 3 and 5 are automatically satisfied if a product is certified in accordance with the FISCO model. More information on the planning of PROFIBUS PA systems is to be found in Chapter 5.

Fieldbus multi-drop barriers

When a PROFIBUS PA segment is operated according to FISCO, the segment coupler ensures intrinsic safety by limiting the current available to the bus. This results in the number of devices per segment being limited to a maximum of 10. If the application demands a large number of intrinsically safe devices, a correspondingly large number of Exi segment couplers are required. Multi-drop barriers provide an alternative and more economic solution to such applications.

The multi-drop barriers are connected to a non-intrinsically safe PROFIBUS segment. In order that the barriers can be mounted and operated in Zone 1, however, the segment is executed to "enhanced safety, Exe" standards. Similarly, the terminals of the barriers are executed to Exe. Multi-drop barriers have several intrinsically safe outputs (usually four) that conform to the FISCO model. The PA slaves connected must be intrinsically safe and certified as FISCO devices. Any externally powered devices must have Exe or Exd power supplies and appropriate connection compartment certification. The barriers offer additional protection of the PROFIBUS PA trunk cable, since they have short-circuit protection. In view of the fact that the trunk cable does not have to be intrinsically safe, the full power of a standard non-Ex coupler can be used on the segment, typically 400 mA, see Chapter 5.2. This means that up to 32 devices can be operated per segment, should this be required.

5 PROFIBUS PA Planning

PROFIBUS planning and commissioning

PROFIBUS PA Planning

Various aspects must be taken into consideration when a PROFIBUS-PA segment is planned. Since the importance of each aspect varies from system to system, it is recommended that the following sections are worked through one after the other. If at some point it becomes obvious that a concept cannot be realised, then start the whole procedure again from the beginning with a modified concept. The chapter is structured as follows: Selection of the segment coupler Cable type and length Current consumption Voltage at last device Example calculations for bus design Data quantity Addressing and cycle times

5.1

Selection of the segment coupler

The first step in planning a PROFIBUS-PA system is the selection of the segment coupler according where the segment is to be operated, see also Chapter 2.3.2. Table 5-1 summerises these:.
Zone/Explosion group Zone 0 Segment coupler Remarks

[EEx ia] IIx

Devices that are in installed in Zone 0 must be operated in a segment with type of protection "EEx ia". All circuits connected to this segment must be certified for type of protection "EEx ia". Devices that are in installed in Zone 1 must be operated in a segment with type of protection "EEx ia" or "EEx ib". All circuits connected to this segment must be certified for type of protection "EEx ia" or "EEx ib". If measurements are made in a medium of explosion group IIC, the devices concerned as well as the segment coupler must be certified for explosion group IIC. For media of explosion group IIB, both the devices and the segment coupler can be certified for both group IIC or IIB. Devices that are operated on a non-Ex segment may not be installed in an explosion hazardous area.

Cable type and length

The bus length is dependent upon the type of protection of the segment and the specification of the cable. In order that the basic requirements for transmission on the IEC 61158-2 (MBP) physical layer are fulfilled and that the inductance and capacitance of the cable can be neglected, the bus length and loop resistance are limited. Table 5-2 lists data from PROFIBUS specifications.

*see also the technical data supplied by the manufacturer Table 5-2: Standardised power supplies with max. loop resistance and bus length for various applications

Bus length

The bus length is the sum of the length of the trunk cable plus all spurs. A spur is any cable connecting to the trunk line that is over 1 metre in length. If a repeater is used, then the max. permissible length is doubled. The spurs are subject to the following limitations: Spurs longer than 30 m are not permissible in explosion hazardous areas. For non-hazardous applications, the maximum length of a spur is dependent upon the number of field devices, see Table 5-3. Spurs which are shorter than 1 m are treated as connection boxes and are not included in the calculation of the total bus length, provided that they do not together exceed 8 m for a 400 m bus or 2 % of the total length for a longer bus.

Max. cable length (worst case)

The maximum cable length for a particular cable resistance is calculated as follows, whereby the limits in Table 4.4. must be observed: Max. cable length (km) = max. loop resistance of the segment coupler (Table 5-2) specific resistivity of the cable /km If not given, the loop resistance is (/km) = 2 x (1000 /A) whereby = specific resistivity mm2/m und A = core cross-section mm2.

Current consumption

The primary factors in determining the number of devices on a segment are the current supplied by the segment coupler and the current consumption of the field devices. For this reason, the current consumption must be calculated for every segment. As a rule of thumb for general planning: Max. 32 devices per segment are permissible in non-hazardous areas (A repeater allows more devices on the segment). Max. 10 devices are permissible in hazardous areas of category ia. For the calculation, the current supplied by the segment coupler IS, the basic current of every device IB and the fault current of every device IFDE must be known. From the electrical point of view, a segment is permissible when: IS ISEG whereby ISEG = IB + max. IFDE

Table 5-4 lists the basic current, the fault current and other specifications of Endress+Hauser devices. The following examples illustrate how the calculation should be made. Empty forms can be found in Appendix A. Device current consumption

Voltage at last device

The resistance of the cable causes a voltage drop on the segment that is greatest at the device farthest from the segment coupler. It must be checked whether an operating voltage of 9 V (for FEB 24 P in Zone 0 9.6 V) is present at this device. There are two ways of doing this: Worst case calculation: if the resulting voltage is over 9V, then the segment will work in all cases Accurate calculation: this calculation takes into account the actual physical distribution of the devices and should be used if the worst case calculation gives a voltage less than 9V

5.4.1

Worst case calculation

The worst case assumes that all devices are located at the end of the bus. The equivalent curcuit diagram is shown in Fig. 5.1
ISEG RL I1 Segment coupler UL US >9V In I2

Fig. 5-1: Voltage calculation and line length (Example 1)

Voltage

The length of the bus is known, the voltage at the last device is to be calculated. Ohm's law is used: UB = US (ISEG x RSEG) whereby: UB = Voltage at last device US = Output voltage of the segment coupler (manufacturer's data) ISEG = Current consumed on the segment (IB + max. IFDE, see Section 4.3) RSEG = Cable resistance = bus length x specific resistance

Bus length

The bus length is to be calculated from given conditions on the bus. A PROFIBUS PA slave requires at least 9 V to function properly (for FEB 24 P in Zone 0 9.6 V). The following applies to the maximum voltage drop over the bus: ULmax = US - 9 V where ULmax = the maximum permissible voltage drop over the bus US = Output voltage of the segment coupler (manufacturer's data)

The corresponding line length in metres L = 1000 x ULmax / [ISEG x ] where metres

ISEG = Current consumed on the segment in amps (IB + max. IFDE, see Section 4.3) = specific resistivity of the bus cable in /km

If the condition described above is not fulfilled, the bus has be shortened or a cable with reduced specific resistivity has to be used or the number of devices on the segment must be reduced.

Alternatives

The result for a segment with type of protection EEx ib and a segment coupler EEx ia IIC is negative. A segment coupler with type of protection EEx ib IIB would be permissible but at the moment there is none on the market. Two possible alternatives are shown in Fig. 5-5: Version A: two segments with type of protections EEx ib are routed to one tank each. In this case, the current consumption is reduced to 56 mA. A segment coupler with type of protection EEx ia IIC is adequate for this requirement. Version B: only circuits with type of protection EEx ia are connected to the bus. The plant can then be equipped with two segments with type of protection EEx ia. The current consumption per segment is 80 mA.

Pepperl+Fuchs barrier

The Fieldbarrier from Pepperl+Fuchs is used to connect up to 4 intrinsically safe PROFIBUS PA devices to a non-intrinsically safe PROFIBUS PA segment. When the Fieldbus barrier is mounted in an hazardous area, Zone 1, the PROFIBUS PA trunk has to be realised to Exe "increased safety" standards. The Fieldbus barrier outputs are intrinsically safe and correspond to the requirements the FISCO Model. The trunk is galvanically separated from the outputs. No terminators are required on the barrier output lines. The complete bus must satisfy the functional considerations cable length, voltage at last device and current consumption as shown in Examples 1 to 3. The technical safety considerations are based on the entity concept. In contrast to the standard Ex i concept, however, the technical safety calculation is made for each individual multidrop barrier. The devices are considered safe if the junction box output characteristics (Uo, Io, Po, Co, Lo) do not exceed the input parameters of the field devices (Ui, Ii, Pi, Ci, Li) and the inductance and capacitance are within the permissible limits. FISCO devices always conform to these requirements. The output characteristics are as follows: Input voltage16 V ... 32 V Output voltage 0 V Output current 40 mA Spur length 120 m in safe areas, 30 m in hazardous areas

The total spur length varies according to the manner in which the the barriers are connected to the trunk line: For daisy chains or connections to the trunk less than one metre, each output line on the barrier counts as a spur from the trunk For connections to the trunk greater than one metre, the connection and all output lines count as one spur and their total length is limited according to Table 5-3, whereby the total length in Ex areas must be less than or equal to 30 m. Dimensioning tool To simplify dimensioning of a fieldbus segment, Pepperl+Fuchs has developed a software tool that makes the necessary calculations. This can be downloaded from the Pepperl+Fuchs home page www.pepperl-fuchs.com free of charge.

Data quantity

If the participants communicate directly with the PROFIBUS DP master through a segment coupler, then the amount of data exchanged sets no limits to the design of the PROFIBUS PA segment. If a link is used as interface to the PROFIBUS DP system, however, the amount of data that can be stored in the I/O buffer is limited. According to the PROFIBUS specification, the maximum telegram length is 244 byte of input data and 244 byte for output data. The system itself may, however, support less: always check the manufacturers specifications!

Table 5-14: Example: Data quantity of a PROFIBUS PA segment

Depending upon the device configuration, from min. 40 bytes to max. 258 bytes (Inputs) and min. 20 bytes to max. 88 bytes (Outputs) are periodically exchanged with the PLC. In the case of a link, the data are transmitted to the PLC in a telegram. The telegram length is limited: a) by the buffer size of the link, e.g. 244 bytes, b) by the max. telegram length of the PLC, e.g. 122 bytes c) by the PROFIBUS-PA specification 244 bytes. It can seen that the use of a link is determined by the configuration of the field devices, see Chapter 3.4 and the system components used. Should the maximum configuration or 258 bytes be required, a link could not be used.

Addressing and cycle times


Addressing

Every device in the bus system is assigned a unique address. Valid addresses lie in the range 0...126, whereby 126 is the address of the delivery status. If the address is not set correctly, the device cannot communicate. Networks with coupler or gateway The PLC is able to assign up to 126 (0...125) addresses to individual participants at the bus. A device address may appear only once within a particular PROFIBUS DP system. If a segment coupler is used, then the addresses assigned to the PROFIBUS PA devices count as PROFIBUS DP addresses. For a typical bus configuration with PLC and PC, the addresses are assigned as follows: the PLC is assigned an address (Class 1 master), typically address 1 the PC or operating tool is assigned an address (Class 2 master), typically address 0 or 2 the other addresses are assigned to the field devices. Networks with links Links act as PROFIBUS DP slaves and receive their own address. The PROFIBUS PA field devices connected to link, however, form a separate PROFIBUS PA system. These are addressed separately. The PROFIBUS DP addresses are assigned as follows: the PLC is assigned an address (Class 1 master), typically address 1 the PC or operating tool is assigned an address (Class 2 master), typically address 0 or 2 every link is assigned an address (e.g. addresses 3, 4, 5, 6, ...) the rest of the addresses are assigned to the other field devices that are connected to transporent segment couples or directly to the PROFIBUS DP system.

On the PROFIBUS PA side, the field devices connected to the link are assigned a unique address for the PROFIBUS PA segment of which they are part. They are not counted as part of the PROFIBUSDP system every device is assigned an address between 3 and 125, the addresses 0, 1 and 2 cannot be assigned when the link is operating together with a standard master. Examples for addressing are to be found in Sections 5.7.3 to 5.7.5

5.7.2

Cycle times

The cycle times must also be considered when the PROFIBUS PA segment is planned. Data exchange between a PLC (a Class 1 master) and the field devices occurs automatically in a fixed, repetitive order. The cycle times determine how much time is required until the data of all the devices in the network are updated. The more complex a device, the greater the amount of data to be exchanged and the longer the response time for the exchange between PLC and device. Table 5-15 summarises the amount of data and the response times for Endress+Hauser devices. The total cycle time for the updating of network data is calculated as follows: Total cycle time = Sum of the cycle times of the field devices + internal PLC cycle time + PROFIBUS-DP transmission time

When links or the transparent SK2 segment coupler are used, the total cycle time of a system can be reduced.

Siemens segment couplers 6ES7-157-0 AD81-0XA0 and 6ES7-157-0 AC80-0XA0, see Table 4-3, can be used by any PROFIBUS DP master (PLC or process control system) that supports a baudrate of 45.45 kbit/s. In the example, two couplers for hazardous areas and one for non-hazardous areas are used. A maximum of 126 (0 - 125) addresses can be given to the participants, since The segment coupler is transparent. 124 addresses are available for assignment to the field devices. The addresses 3 - 19 are used. The transmission rate is 45.45 kBit/s.

The cycle time for the following example is: (cycle time of the devices) + PLC cycle time (ca. 100 ms) = 17 x 10 ms + 100 ms = 270 ms

Note! For PROFIBUS DP alone, the DP transmission time must also be considered. The (bus) cycle time is the time period required under worse case conditions for the changes in input data to be transmitted to the master and the changes in output data to the slaves

In the example, two couplers for hazardous areas and one for non-hazardous areas are used. A maximum of 126 (0 - 125) addresses can be given to the participants, since the segment coupler is transparent. 124 addresses are available for assignment to the field devices. The addresses 3 - 19 are used. The transmission rate is 93.75 kbit/s. The cycle time for the following example is: (cycle time of the devices) + PLC cycle time (ca. 100 ms) = 17 x 10 ms + 100 ms = 270 ms

Note! For PROFIBUS DP alone, the DP transmission time must also be considered. The (bus) cycle time is the time period required under worse case conditions for the changes in input data to be transmitted to the master and the changes in output data to the slaves

The segment coupler SK2 (KLD2-PL(2)-1.PA with gateway KLD-GT-DP.1PA or KLD2-PL(2)Ex1.PA with gateway KLD-GT-DP.1PA) supports both cyclic or and acyclic data exchange of the PROFIBUS DP V1 protocol. In the example, three segment couplers SK2 are used: two couplers for hazardous areas and one for non-hazardous areas. All data that is to be updated cyclically is automatically updated in the common data area by the PROFIBUS PA master. The update time depends on the data volume transferred via the PROFIBUS PA channel. Cycle time From the point of view of PROFIBUS DP, the segment coupler represents a multi-slave device. If the PROFIBUS DP Master sends a request to a slave address existing at the segment coupler, the gateway answers directly on the request with the data, that are stored in the common data range. Through this behavior, the PROFIBUS DP master does not need to wait for the PROFIBUS PA slave to respond. The result of this is that the cycle time of the entire system is calculated as follows: tCycle = tCycle_PA-channel + tCycle_DP The time tCycle_PA-channel can be estimated as follows: tCycle_PA-channel = 10 ms + n*10,5 ms + 0,256 ms*(LE + LA) where n = the number of PROFIBUS PA slaves LE = total number of input bytes of all PROFIBUS PA slaves on the channel. LA = total number of output bytes of all PROFIBUS PA slaves on the channel.

DP cycle time

The time tCycle_DP can be estimated as follows: tCycle_DP = TBit * n * 500 + 11*TBit*(LE +LA) where n = the number of PROFIBUS DP/PA slaves LE = total number of input bytes of all PROFIBUS slaves LA = total number of output bytes of all PROFIBUS slaves TBit = bit time = 1/transfer rate

For the time tCycle_DP a safety add-on of 10% should be included in the calculation in accordance with the PROFIBUS User Organization. The equation above applies given the following pre-conditions: The PROFIBUS DP network is operated as a monomaster system, i. e. there is only one master on the PROFIBUS DP. If you want to use a multimaster system, the token hold time and the corresponding pause times of the additional masters must be added to the total. Only acyclic data exchange takes place. If the master is also supposed to transfer acyclic telegrams, the time required for acyclic communication must be added in total. Example The cycle time for the example in Fig. 5.11 is: 1 (Cycle time of the PA network) = PA segment 1 + PA segment 2 + PA segment 3 where 1 = cycle PA segment 1 + cycle PA segment 2 + cycle PA segment 3 1 = (10 ms + n*10.5 ms + 0.256 ms*(50)) + (10 ms + n*10.5 ms + 0.256 ms*(40)) + (10 ms + n*10.5 ms + 0.256 ms*(90)) 1 = 117.3 ms + 104.24 ms + 106.54 ms 1 = 328.08 ms 2 (Cycle time of the DP PLC) where

Three links are used in the example, each with two segment couplers A maximum of 126 addresses can be assigned to the participants on the PROFIBUS DP system. A maximum of 122 PA addresses (address range 3 - 125) can be assigned in the PROFIBUS PA segments connected to each link. The PROFIBUS DP addresses 3 -5 are used to address the links. In the PROFIBUS PA segments, the addresses 3-11, 3-10 and 3-9 are used for the PA devices, whereby addresses 0 - 2 is reserved for the link in each case and not useable for PA devices. The transmission rate may be up to 12 Mbit/s. The cycle time for the example is: 1 (Cycle time of the PA devices) PA segment1: 9 x 10 ms = 90 ms PA segment 2: 8 x 10 ms = 80 ms PA segment 3: 7 x 10 ms = 70 ms 2 (Cycle time of the DP devices up to 12 Mbit/s) + PLC cycle time (ca. 100 ms) 3 x 1 ms + 100 ms = 103 ms

Installation PROFIBUS PA

The chapter contains information on physical installation of the network. It contains the following sections: Cabling Grounding and shielding Termination Overvoltage protection Installation of the devices Setting the address

6.1

Cabling

When installing a PROFIBUS network, particular attention must be paid to the cabling. This covers both choice of cabling, see below, and the way in which the cables are laid in the plant. Thus by careful routing, e.g. avoidance of potential sources of intense electromagnetic interference, use of metal trays or separation of power and bus cables in the cable tray, a significant contribution can sometimes be made to the fault-free running of the bus. PROFIBUS DP On the PROFIBUS DP side it is usual to make connections via a screw terminals or 9-pin DIN connectors. Cable specifications are listed in Tables 3-3 and 3-7 in Chapter 3 and suitable cables are to be found on the market for PROFIBUS DP or RS-485 applications. Junction boxes, terminators and other connection equipment are also available. The connection to the segment coupler or link is usually by means of screw terminals. For the connection of devices and spurs to the trunk cable, the customer has following choices: T-box with screw terminals or M12 connectors Junction boxes with screw terminals or M12 connectors Field barriers with M12 connectors Chapter 4, Tables 4-4 and 4-5 contain cable specifications and Table 4-6 a list of manufacturers (partial). PROFIBUS PA cables are available on the market for both safe and FISCO applications, and cord sets with M12 connectors are readily available in different lengths. In all cases, however, care must be taken regarding the continuity of the screening and the correct termination of the segment. For this reason, it is important to consider the grounding scheme to be adopted, before equipment is purchased.

PROFIBUS PA

Note! Where the network is operating in explosion hazardous areas, it is important to remember that all equipment, including cables, connecting units, terminators etc., has the appropriate certification. For PROFIBUS PA, the use of FISCO equipment simplifies proof of intrinsically safety. The M12 connector cannot be used for four-wire EEx d devices and only under certain conditions for EEx e devices. Endress+Hauser offer a number of products and accessories for PROFIBUS PA. For more information, please ask for the documentation "Instrumnetation aids and accessories for PROFIBUS.

6.2

Grounding and shielding

This section describes three possible grounding and shielding schemes for a PROFIBUS PA network. Full isolation Installation with multiple grounding Capacitive isolation The difference between the schemes lies in the grounding of the bus cable shield. In one case it is connected to a separate ground and in the other integrated into the general plant grounding system. Plant grounding schemes also differ according to national and or local practice. For example, British practice is neutral star earth bonding, German practice is the use of a potential equalisation line and Americans often run cables in grounded steel conduits and enclose control equipment in steel cabinets.

Central grounding

Potential matching line

Fig. 6-1: Device grounding schemes: In neutral star earth bonding it is assumed that the device is electrically connected to the tank via the process connection. The Tanks are grounded at a central grounding point.

In German practice, each device is connected directly to a thick potential equalisation line which runs throughout the plant and is connected to a single grounding point. The purpose of grounding the shielding is to protect the digital signals on the fieldbus from highfrequency electromagnetic interference caused, e.g., by cellular telephones or harmonics from frequency converters and other plant equipment. It can be seen, therefore, that local installation practice may also have some influence on the suitability of a particular scheme. The conditions for transmission may also be poorer in extensive networks or in networks with many branches. Finally, Ex considerations may rule out some schemes in some countries. Applicability The grounding schemes shown overleaf assume that the T-boxes/junction boxes are serving plant sections that are some distance from each other and the control room, making it likely that each is connected to a different earth potential. They address the problem of preventing current loops developing within the cable shield, should a multiple grounding scheme be chosen, see Fig. 6-2. For simplicity, the wiring is shown with screw terminals. If a M12 connector is used, the device connection compartment should be opened to check whether the shield wire is already connected to the internal device grounding terminal. If this is the case, it must be detached and isolated, if a isolated scheme is required. For T-boxes and junction boxes, the manufacturers instructions must be followed.

PROFIBUS planning and commissioning

Full isolation

Full isolation is the scheme described in IEC 61158-2, and is the favoured method in Britain and the USA. In this case, the cable shield ground is fully isolated from the device grounds. The shield is grounded at the power supply or safety barrier only. The disadvantage of this method is that the bus signal is not optimally protected from high frequency interference. Just how much this disturbs communication, depends upon the length of the bus, its topology and the sources of interference. As pointed out at the start of this chapter, if the bus runs in grounded metal conduits, as e.g. in American installations, then this scheme may work quite well.

6 Installation PROFIBUS PA

Multiple grounding

Multiple grounding provides enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference in noisy environments. It is the favoured method in Germany. All devices and cable shields are grounded locally. Each local ground is connected to a thick potential equalisation line, which itself is grounded in a safe area. According to IEC 79-13, Paragraph 12.2.2.3, this method can be used provided that the installation is effected and maintained in such a manner that there is a high level of assurance that potential equalisation exists between each end of the circuit. Under these circumstances it fulfils intrinsic safety requirements.

PROFIBUS planning and commissioning

Capacitive isolation

In the case of capacitive grounding, the shield is connected to the grounding system (here shown as potential equalisation line) via a capacitor at all points except the power supply or safety barrier, which is grounded in the normal way. Small capacitors (e.g. 1 nF, 1500 V, dielectric strength, ceramic) are used and the total capacitance connected to the shielding may not exceed 10 nF. The capacitors are normally built into the T-box and junction box connectors, and offered as such by the component manufacturers. This method is not permitted in Ex applications.

Fig. 6-6: Capacitive grounding in a safe area: 1 Power supply/segment coupler, 2 T-Box or junction box with capacitive shield grounding, 3 Bus terminator with capacitive shield grounding, 4 Local grounds, 5 Potential equalisation line (optional)

If the bus runs into a hazardous area the T-boxes and junction boxes must be wired in the normal way and the power supply or barrier grounded via a capacitor.

6 Installation PROFIBUS PA

6.3

Termination

The start and end of every PROFIBUS PA segment must be fitted with a bus terminator. For nonhazardous areas, some T-boxes have an integrated terminating element that can be switched in when required. If this is not the case, a separate terminator must be used. The segment coupler at the beginning of the segment has a built in terminator. The terminator in the T-box at the end of the segment must be switched in, or a separate terminator must be used. T-boxes with switchable terminators may not be used in explosion hazardous areas. The terminator requires the corresponding FISCO approval and is a separate unit. For a segment with a tree architecture, the bus ends at the device that is the furthest from the segment coupler. For a junction box, the termination can be made at the box, provided that none of the connected spurs exceeds 30 m in length. If the bus is extended by the use of a repeater, then the extension must also be terminated at both ends. The beginning and end of the PROFIBUS DP segment must also be terminated, see Chapter 3. The terminating resistors are already built into most of the connectors on the market and must only be switched in.

6.4

Overvoltage protection

Depending upon the application, the PROFIBUS PA segment can also be protected against overvoltages. An overvoltage protector is installed immediately after the segment coupler. An overvoltage protector is installed immediately before every device (between the device and the T-box). In the case of hazardous applications, each overvoltage protector must have the corresponding approval. The manufacturer's instructions are to be observed when installing. The overvoltage protectors HAW 560, HAW 560Z, HAW 562, HAW 562Z, HAW 569 and HAW 569Z are available from Endress+Hauser.

Installation of the devices

PROFIBUS devices must be installed in accordance with their operating manuals. Table 6-1 lists all manuals available at the time of writing. Current manuals can be downloaded from the companys Internet site: www.endress.com. It should be noted that for some devices, a separate manual is available covering PROFIBUS installation. All Endress+Hauser devices have integrated polarity protection and can be commissioned independent of the actual polarity. If a device without polarity protection is incorrectly wired, then it will not be recognised by the PLC or operating program. Such an incorrect connection, however, has no damaging effect on the device or the segment.

Note! All Endress+Hauser devices designed for use in explosion hazardous areas conform to the FISCO model /Ex ia. In the case of four wire devices, the supply connection compartments are designed with type of protection Ex d and/or Ex e. This usually precludes the use of the standard M12 connector. In addition to the general installation guidelines, any special guidelines for installation in explosion-hazardous areas as well as the guidelines in Chapter 5-1 regarding the interconnection of devices in explosion hazardous areas must be observed. .

Setting addresses

The device address can be set either locally via switch (e.g. DIP, DIL, ...), via local operating elements or by the appropriate software (e.g. FieldCare or Commuwin II). All PROFIBUS devices must have a unique address. Valid addresses lie within the range 0125. For the rules and examples of address assignment, see Section 5.7. If an address is not configured correctly, the device will not be recognised by the master. The address 126 is used for initial commissioning and for service purposes. This is normally the default address of Endress+Hasuer PROFIBUS PA set at the factory.

6.6.1
Eight-gang DIP switch

Using DIP switches

All Endress+Hauser devices except the analysis device Mypro or TMT 834 are fitted with an DIP switch for setting the device address. Fig. 6-9 shows a typical example: A = DIP switches 1 - 7: defining the device address B = DIP switch 8: address mode (type of addressing) (ON = software addressing / OFF = hardware addressing)

Fig. 6-9: Example 1: DIP switches for setting the device address

Ten-gang DIP switch

The flowmeter Prowirl 72/73 has a ten-gang switch, see Fig. 6-10: A = DIP switches 1 - 7 = defining the device address B = DIP switches 8 - 9 = not defined C = DIP switch 10 = address mode (type of addressing) (ON = hardware addressing / OFF = software addressing)

System Integration

This chapter is concerned with system integration and is structured as follows: Network configuration Device database files Cyclic data exchange Bus parameters

7.1

Network configuration

In general, the a PROFIBUS network configuration proceeds as follows: 1. The network participants are stipulated in the configuration program (see Table 7-1). The GSD files are then loaded into the specified directory of the program and the network is configured off-line with the planning software. 2. The PLC application program is now written. This is done using the manufacturer's system programming software. The application program controls the input and output of data and determines where the data are to be stored. If necessary, an additional conversion module must be used for PLCs that do not support the IEEE 754 floating point format. Depending upon the way the data is stored in the PLC (LSB or MSB), a byte swapping module may be required. 3. After the network has been designed and configured, the result is loaded into the PLC as a binary file. 4. When the PLC configuration is complete, the system can be started up. The master opens a connection to each individual device. Now by using a Class 2 master, e.g. FieldCare, the individual devices can be parametrized from a central workstation.

Device database files (GSDs)

The PROFIBUS system requires a description of the device parameters, e.g. output data, input data, data format and supported transmission rate, so that it can integrate the field devices into the bus system. This data is contained in a PROFIBUS device description file (GSD file) which is placed at the disposal of the PROFIBUS-DP master when the communication system is being commissioned. Device bitmaps, which appear as symbols in the network tree, can also be integrated. If devices are used that support the "PA devices" profile, there are three different versions of the GSD file: Manufacturer-specific GSD): This guarantees the maximum functionality of the field device. Device-specific process parameters and functions are available. Two versions of the manufacturer-specific GSD are available, standard and extended. Use the version supported by you control system. Profile GSD: This contains a fixed number of Analog Input blocks (AI) dependent upon the profile of the measuring principle. If a system is configured with profile GSDs, it will be possible to exchange a device supplied by one manuafacturer for one produced by another manufacturer. Profile GSD (multi-variable) with the ID number 9760Hex: This GSD contains all possible function blocks specified in the device profile such as AI, DO, DI, etc.. It is not supported by Endress+Hauser devices. A decision on which type of GSD is to be used must be made during the planning of the network. The configuration can be changed during operation (using a Class 2 master, or sometimes the local display), but it should be remembered, that if the segment is running at or near maximum capacity, this could lead to a breakdown in communication because the telegram length exceeds 244 bytes. Obtaining GSD files The GSD files for all Endress+Hauser devices can be acquired in the following manner: Internet (Endress+Hauser) http://www.endress.com (Download Area) Internet (PNO) http://www.profibus.com (Products - Product Guide) On CD-ROM from Endress+Hauser: Order-Code-No. 56003894 Contents of the download file from the internet and the CD-ROM: All Endress+Hauser GSD files Endress+Hauser bitmap files Useful information relating to the devices All the files which are needed for configuration are contained in one zipped file. During unpacking, the following structure will be created: Version #xx stands for the corresponding device version. Device-specific bitmaps can be found in the directories BMP and DIB. The utilisation of these will depend on the configuration software that is being used. The GSD files are saved in the subdirectories Extended and Standard which can be found in the GSD folder. Information relating to the implementation of the field transmitter and any dependencies in the device software can be found in the Info folder. Please read this carefully before configuration takes place.

PROFIBUS planning and commissioning

Standard and extended formats

Some systems require that the modules of the GSD files are transmitted with an extended identification (e.g. 0x42, 0x84, 0x08, 0x05). The associated GSD files can be found in the Extended folder. All GSD files that have a standard identification (e.g. 0x94) can be found in the Standard folder. When integrating field transmitters, the GSD files with the extended identification should be used first. If, however, the integration is not successful, the standard GSD should be used. This differentiation is the result of a specific implementation in the master systems.

Identification

The GSD designations are derived from the PNO device ID or Profile ID numbers as follows: Standard GSD: EH3_15xx EH = Endress+Hauser 3 = Profile 3.0, _= standard identification 15xx = Device ID-No. EH = Endress+Hauser 3 = Profile 3.0, x= extended identification 15xx = Device ID-No. PA = PROFIBUS PA (DP) 03 = Profile 3.0, PA; 13 = Profile 3.0, DP 9741 = Profile ID number

Extended GSD:

EH3x15xx

Profile GSD

PA039741

DP files are required for PROFIBUS DP devices and for PROFIBUS PA devices that are operating with a Pepperl+Fuchs SK2 coupler, see Section 7.4.1. Working with GSD files The GSD files must be integrated into the automation control system. Depending on the software that is being used, the GSD files can be copied to the program-specific directory or can be read into the database using the import function within the configuration software, see operating manuals of your system. Example: In the case of the configuration software Siemens STEP 7 (Siemens PLC S7-300 / 400) The GSD files are copied to the subdirectory ...\ siemens \ step7 \ s7data \ gsd. The bitmap files are used to display the measuring points in image form. The bitmap files are saved to the directory ...\ siemens \ step7 \ s7data \ nsbmp. Taking the example of the Promag 53, the following sections show how the GSD files are integrated and used

VALUE and STATUS

The values and status are transmitted in the following formats: Volume flow: Totalizer 1...3: Mass flow: Display value: Status: Control value: 32-bit floating point number (IEEE-754) 32-bit floating point number (IEEE-754) 32-bit floating point number (IEEE-754) 32-bit floating point number (IEEE-754) 1 byte bit code 1 byte bit code m3/h m3 or kg kg/h

Totalizers 1-3 can be configured individually. The following settings are possible (factory setting: volume flow in m3): Off, Mass flow, Volume flow Output data The display value allows the transfer of a measured value that has been calculated in the controller to the Promag display. This value can be assigned to the main line, the secondary line and the info line of the display. The display value comprises 4 bytes measured value and 1 byte status. The status is displayed as being OK, UNCERTAIN or BAD. The control variables SET_TOT_n and MODE_TOT_n for totalizers 1-3 allow them to be controlled from the automation control system. The following control variables are possible: SET_TOT 0= 1= 2= Totalize Reset Activate predefined value Balancing positive flow detection negative flow detection Stop totalizing.

Control variables

MODE_TOT 0= 1= 2= 3=

The control variable is executed through the cyclic data exchange each time the output byte changes. It is not necessary to reset to 0 to execute a control variable. The predefined totalizer value is set via the local display or the Class 2 master! Example of SET_TOT and MODE_TOT: If the control variable SET_TOT is set to 1 (1 = Reset the totalizer), the value of the totalizer will be set to 0. The value of the totalizer will now be added up starting from 0. If the totalizer is to retain the value 0, it will be necessary to set the control variable MODE_TOT to 3 (3 = STOP totalizing). The totalizer will now stop adding up. The control variable SET_TOT can be set to 1 at a later point in time (1 = Reset the totalizer).

Partial configuration with manufacturer-specific GSDs

If not all measured variables are not required, the placeholder EMPTY_MODULE (0x00) is used to to deactivate individual measured variables:

Fig. 7-3: Using place holders in Siemens PDM

Note! The placeholder is sometimes called "FREE_SPACE" The result is that selected blocks are deactivated and the telegram length is reduced. The totaliser has been configured "without control variable" in this example, so that it acts as an additional measured value without control. There is no possiblity to stop or reset it.

Note! For level and pressure devices, the telegram frame is empty and the content must be selected from the blocks offered in the device tree This form of configuration activates all blocks supported by device profile. The GSD file contains two AI blocks and a Totalizer block. The first AI block is always assigned to the volume flow. This guarantees that the first measured variable agrees with the field equipment of other manufacturers. The second AI block can be freely selected as Promag 53 is capable of producing a calculated mass flow.

Transfer of analogue values

Cyclic data exchange

As mentioned previously, analog process values are transmitted to the PLC cyclically in 5 byte blocks. The measured value is a four byte floating point number to IEEE 754, see Table 7-6. The fifth byte contains the associated status information.
Byte 1 Byte 2 Byte 3 Byte 4 Byte 5 Status

Measured value as IEEE 754 floating point number Table 7-6: Structure of cyclic analog value

If a device delivers more than one measured value (e.g. Promag), the measured value telegram is increased accordingly, see Chapter 7.3. The number of measured values that a device transmits is set while the system planning. Table 5-15 in Chapter 5.6 as well as the device operating manuals summarise the measured values that can be transmitted by Endress+Hauser devices. IEEE 754 floating point number The measured value is transmitted as a IEEE 754 floating point number, whereby Measured value = (1)Sign x 2(E 127) x (1 + F)

Not all PLCs support the IEEE 754 format. For this reason a conversion module must often be used or written. Transfer of discrete values If the field device outputs a level limit signal, e.g. Liquiphant M, the information is transmitted in two bytes as follows. An exact description of the transmission format is to be found in the operating instructions.

Transmission rates

Bus parameters

Endress+Hauser's PROFIBUS DP devices support baudrates up to 12 Mbit/s (depends on version). The baudrate is automatically adjusted to that used by the master and must not be set at the device. Similarly, PROFIBUS PA devices do not have to be adjusted, since the transmission rate is fixed. On the other hand, if FieldCare or Commuwin II is used as a Class 2 master, both the transmssion rate and other bus parameters must be aligned with those of the segment coupler. The same PROFIBUS DP baudrate must be also be set in the network configuration software: Pepperl+Fuchs segment coupler SK1: 93.75 kBit/s Pepperl+Fuchs segment coupler SK2: 45.45 kBit/s - 12 MBit/s Siemens DP/PA coupler: 45.45 kBit/s Siemens DP/PA link: 9.6 kBit/s - 12 MBit/s

The typical values for the other bus parameters are listed in Table 7-12. Please note that for the Pepperl+Fuchs SK2 coupler, additional parameters must be set, as described later in theis chapter.

7.4.3
PROFIBUS PA-slaves

Commissioning the Pepperl+Fuchs SK2

Since the SK2 segment coupler works transparently, PROFIBUS PA stations are treated by the PROFIBUS DP master as if they were PROFIBUS DP slaves. This also applies to commissioning and configuration. In order that a PROFIBUS PA slave be placed in operation and be configured by a configuration tool, the GSD file of the slave must be integrated into the configuration tool. In view of the fact that the SK2 coupler supports several transmission rates on the PROFIBUS DP side, the normal PROFIBUS PA GSD file cannot be used. Instead, the PROFIBUS DP GSD file is required. If the device does not support PROFIBUS DP, the PROFIBUS PA GSD file must be converted with the conversion program supplied by Pepperl+Fuchs with the SK2. This applies both to the manufacturer-specific and profile GSDs.

Note! The naming conventions for GSD files are described in Chapter 3.4.1. If you uncertain what GSD you have, integrate it into your configuration tool and check the transmission rates supported: If the transmission rate 31.25 kBd is supported, it is a PA GSD. If the transmission rates of 9.6 kBd to 1.5 MBd or 12 MBd are supported, it is a DP GSD.

GSD Converter

If no PROFIBUS DP GSD exists, the PA GSD must be converted. The software can be downloaded free-of-charge from www.pepperl-fuchs.com. The task of this conversion software is exclusively to enter the missing transfer rate and set specific bus parameters to values that allow for problemfree operation of the PROFIBUS DP.

Note! The PROFIBUS user organization has agreed that certified GSD files that have been modified by the Pepperl+Fuchs GSD converter software do not lose their certificate. The conversion of the GSD file imposes the following restrictions if the function was previously supported by the original GSD file: FREEZE and SYNC functionality is deactivated. These functions are used in PROFIBUS DP for synchronizing sensors/actuators. Since the system is working with transfer rates of up to 12 MBd on the PROFIBUS DP side (host side) and with a transfer rate of 31.25 kBd on the PROFIBUS PA side (field side) it is not possibleto ensure that this synchronization will work with no problems. A maximum of 4 master Class 2 connections (C2 connections) are supported for each slave. Some PROFIBUS functions are currently not supported. If the field device is supposed to support one or more of the following functions, a warning will inform the user that this is no longer the case after the conversion. This affects the following functions: Alarms based on PROFIBUS DP V1 The following functions of the PROFIBUS DP V2 - Data Exchange Broadcast (Publisher/Subscriber) - Time synchronization - Isochronous mode, i. e. cycle-synchronous transfer

Using GSD Converter

After the program is started (pfgsdcv.exe) the following dialogue appears:

Fig. 7-6: Dialogue box: Pepperl+Fuchs GSD Converter

To convert a GSD file, proceed as follows: 1. Switch to the directory in which the GSD files to be converted are located. 2. Select the GSD files to be converted: You can select one or more files (using Ctrl or Shift) for conversion. Files with + before the file name are the result of a former conversion and generate an error message if you attempt to convert them again. Files with a - are not the result ofa conversion and can be converted. You can open a file to view it and edit it by double clicking on it. 3. Determine the version number of the GSD file to be converted: the name of a PROFIBUS GSD file always consists of three parts: The manufacturer-specific part (1- 4 characters) The device ID number (4 characters) The file extension For converted PROFIBUS PA GSD files, the Profibus User Organization (PNO) has specified that the charaters "YP0" and a version number as the the manufacturer-specific part of the name. You can select the version number using a drop-down box (revision) and thus generate different versions of GSD files for a field device (with the same ID number). 4. Switch to the directory in which the converted GSD files will be stored. 5. Convert the GSD files by clicking on the Process GSD --> button. You can start the conversion process with this button. Another window appears in which you are informed of the results of the conversion process.

Watch Dog Time TWD

PROFIBUS devices can activate a watchdog mechanism that checks whether the PROFIBUS master is still actives every data exchange cycle. The time is measured in the PROFIBUS slave. If the watchdog is activated and the time TWD (Watch Dog Time) since the last cyclic call expires, the device quits cyclic data exchange mode, goes into the original state (Wait_prm) and sets the outputs to the secure state. The value of TWD and the activation of the watch dog are transferred in the configuration telegram sent on start up from the PROFIBUS Master to the PROFIBUS slave (transition to the data exchange). In general, dimensioning of the time TWD is user-specific (not device-specific and not in the GSD). The lower limit of the value is given by the cycle time. As a rule, the configuration tool is used to enter the time TWD. There are configuration tools for which the watchdog time is set at 1x of PROFIBUS master and others for which the watchdog time is set individually for each PROFIBUS PA station. The value is the same in both cases. For many tools, the time TWD is automatically calculated based on the cycle time of the master with a corresponding transmission rate. At higher transmission rates on the PROFIBUS DP side (for example 12 MBd) cycle times on the PROFIBUS PA side may be longer by a factor of 300. If parameters were set directly for a PROFIBUS PA device using a high transmission rate, TWD is usually less than the PA cycle and the device never exchanges data. Segment coupler SK2 To ensure reliable operation of the PROFIBUS the following bus parameters should be used: Transfer rate 45.45 kBd... 12 MBd Watchdog time TWD = 5 s PROFIBUS DP standard bus parameter

Note! If there are a large number of PROFIBUS PA stations per channel of the SK2 segment coupler, the watchdog time TWD should be verified. The limit for the above value is about 32 stations, but depends on the volume of data to be transferred. The above watchdog time is based on experience. If it is too long (slaves are not switching into the secure state quickly enough) or too short (slaves are switching into the secure state without the master ever having failed) this must be taken into the calculation. Depending on the configuration tool, you can: set parameters for only one watchdog time TWD for the entire PROFIBUS system. In this case, the greatest delay time must be used as the basis for determining TWD. set parameters for a watchdog time TWD for each individual slave. The time TWD set must be greater than the longest delay time TV_max that will occur: TV_max = TCycle_DP + TCycle_PA_cannel where TCycle_PA_channel = TCycle_DP = Cycle time of the PROFIBUS PA channel Cycle time of the PROFIBUS DP side

Determining TWD

Pepperl+Fuchs recommends three times the PROFIBUS PA cycle time be used for the SK2. Calculating TWD The PA cycle time TCycle_PA_channel depends on 1) the number n of stations on a channel and 2) the effective data length L (total bytes input and output data of all devices/no. of devices): Cycle time can be calculated in an approximate manner as TCycle_PA_cannel = n * (0.256 ms * L + 12 ms) + 40 ms For more information on calculating cycle time, please refer to the P+F instruction manuals.

Device Parametrization

This chapter describes the operating concept of the PROFIBUS PA devices and is subdivided as follows: PROFIBUS PA block model Functional survey FieldCare asset management software Commuwin II operating and display program

There are two reasons for parametrizing a PROFIBUS PA or DP device: the adjustment of the operating parameters of the device to calibrate it for the application at hand. In this case the corresponding operating instructions should be used. the adjustment of the profile parameters of the device in order to e.g. scale or simulate the cyclic measured value output to the PLC. Profile parameters are accessible only through the acyclic services of the PROFIBUS DP system. Local operation The operating parameters of most Endress+Hauser devices can be set up using the local operating elements of the device, if they are so equipped. This facility is provided in order that they can be set up before installation, e.g. on a test bench. It is not advisable to change parameters locally during the operation of a system, since this may have unforseen consequences, e.g. on control loops. For this reason, local operating should be disabled when the system is commissioned. More details on this function and the calibration of Endress+Hauser devices are to be found in the corresponding manuals. Device parameters can also be adjusted by the acyclic services of the PROFIBUS DP system, with an appropriate configuration program. This might be embedded within the system or run on an independent workstation. Endress+Hauser offers two alternatives: the FieldCar asset management ent software and the Commuwin II operating and display program. The latter is to be found in many existing plants, but will be gradually replaced over the next year. This chapter contains a short overviewof the parametrization of devices via both these programs. Full descriptions must be taken from the appropriatte device manuals.

PROFIBUS PA block model

The PROFIBUS PA block model describes several parameters that can be used to realise a device. Mandatory parameters must always be present. Optional parameters are only present when required, e.g. for a particular transmitter type. Manufacturer-specific parameters are used to realise device functions that are not in the profile. A manufacturer's operating tool or a device description is required for their operation. Based on this general structure, special block characteristics are specified in the PROFIBUS PA profile. Fig. 8-1 and 8-2 shows the general way in which the blocks are used within the system. In the case of PROFIBUS PA devices that conform to PROFIBUS PA Profile 3.0 , these parameters are managed in block objects.

Fig. 8-1 shows the block model of a simple sensor. It comprises four blocks: device management, physical block, transducer block and function block that are described in detail in the following sections. The sensor signal is converted to a measured value by the transducer block and transmitted to the function block. Here the measured value can be scaled or limits can be set before it is made available as the output value to the cyclic services of the PLC.

For an actuator, the processing is in the reverse order, see Fig. 8-2. The PLC outputs a setpoint value that serves as the input value to the actuator. After any scaling, the setpoint value is transmitted to the transducer block as the output value of the function block. It processes the value and outputs a signal that drives the valve to the desired position.

8.2.1

Block structure

The parameters assigned to the individual blocks use the data structures and data formats that are specified in the PROFIBUS standard. The structures are designed such that the data are stored and transmitted in an ordered and interpretable manner. All parameters in the PROFIBUS-PA profile, whether mandatory or optional, are assigned an address (slot/index). The address structure must be maintained, even if optional parameters are not implemented in a device, This ensures that the relative indices in the profile are also to be found in the devices. Standard parameters With the exception of the device management, the standard parameters are to be found at the beginning of every block. They are used to identify and manage the block. The user can access these parameters using the acyclic services, e.g. by means of the FieldCare asset management software or the Commuwin II operating and display program. Table 8-1 lists and briefly explains the standard parameters.

There are two basic ways in which it can be used in a PROFIBUS system, see Fig. 8-7: The PC is connected directly to the PROFIBUS DP segment via a PROFIBOARD (PC) or PROFICARD (Notebook) and acts as a PROFIBUS. During system integration the computer is registered as a Class 2 master. The PC is resident on the Ethernet TCP/IP backbone and connected to the PROFIBUS network via the Fieldgate FXA720 PROFIBUS/Ethernet gateway.

The essence of FieldCare operation is the engineering of the physical network in the so-called network view. This is done by means of CommDTMs for communication objects such as the PROFIBUS card or Fieldgate FXA720, DeviceDTMs for the field devices in the network and Profile DTMs for devices that conform to the PROFIBUS or HART standards, but which do not have a device-specific DTM, see Fig. 8-8. In order that the full network can be reprresented, placeholder DTMs are available non-communicating devices. More details are in the FieldCare on-line help.

Note! Due to the introduction of FieldCare, Commuwin II will be phased out by 2006. While support will continue over this period, new devices will not be integrated. Commuwin II runs on an IBM-compatible PC or Laptop. The computer must be equipped with a PROFIBUS interface, i.e. PROFIBOARD for PCs and PROFICARD for laptops. Alternatively, a Fieldgate FXA720 can be be used, see also Fig. 8-7. During the system integration, the computer is registered as a Class 2 master.

8.4.2

Device menu

The device menu allows matrix or graphical operation to be selected. In the case of matrix operation, the device or profile parameters are displayed in a matrix. A parameter can be changed when the corresponding matrix field is selected. In the case of graphical operation, the operating sequence is shown in a series of pictures with parameters. For profile operation, the pictures Diagnosis, Scaling, Simulation and Block are of interest.

Fig. 8-10: Basic calibration of the Deltapilot S using graphical configuration

The device parameters are set in accordance with the corresponding operating instructions. Tables of profile functions are also to be found here. The parameter blocks are adapted to the transmitters. Third-party devices can also be operated via the profile parameters. In this case, standardised transducer, function or physical blocks appear. Off-line operation Commuwin also allows the devices to be configured off-line. After all parameters have been entered, the file generated can be loaded into the connected device. This function allows the parameters of an already configured device to be loaded and stored in Commuwin II. If several devices (with the same software version) have to be configured in the same way, the parameters can now be downloaded into the devices. Fig. 8-11 shows the graphical operation for the scaling of the Deltapilot S. By selecting the device profile "AI transmitter block" (acknowledge with .) the parameters PV_SCALE and OUT_SCALE can be set. Please note that for DPV1 Version 2.0, the unit is not transmitted with the measured value. The setting of the PV unit also has no effect on the output value OUT. The operating picture "Diagnosis" shows the current status of the device. "Simulation" allows a measured value to be simulated, "Block" displays the current setting of the mode block..

Trouble-Shooting

This chapter contains a summary of the most frequent faults and questions concerning PROFIBUS that have been dealt with by our service department. It is subdivided as follows: Commissioning PLC network design Data transmission Commuwin II

9.1

Commissioning
Cause/Remedy With the exception of the analysis device Mypro, all Endress+Hauser devices have an address switch that allows hardware or software addressing. Software address changes can be made via the PROFIdtmDPV1 CommDTM is FieldCare, the DPV1-DDE server of Commuwin II or any other PROFIBUS operating tool. See also Chapter 6.6. PROFIBUS PA: There is no termination switch on the device itself. The bus is terminated by using a separate terminator or a T-box with a switchable terminating element PROFIBUS DP: Termination switches are located in the devices. We recommend the use of PROFIBUS connectors with integrated terminators (in cabinet or field) The segment coupler supplies a defined maximum output current to the segment. Every device requires a particular basic current (see Chapter 5.3). If the sum of the basic currents exceeds the output current of the coupler, the bus become unstable. Diagnosis: Measure the current consumption of the devices with an ammeter. Remedy: Reduce the electrical load on the segment concerned, i.e. one or more devices must be disconnected. If a Siemens DP/PA-link Type IM 157 is used, the internal address must be taken into consideration. On the PROFIBUS-PA side, the link has the fixed internal address 2. For this reason, the address 2 may not be assigned to any of the PROFIBUS PA slaves connected to the link. Two devices (slave or master) have the same address. Disconnect the slave with address 2 from the bus and check whether there are others on the bus with the same address (e.g. with FieldCare of Commuwin II). Readdress as approprate. Check the settings of the PROFIBUS master as to whether the address 2 has been allocated twice.

Question/Fault How can I assign an address to a device?

Where is the device termination switch?

When a device is added to the bus, the segment fails

PROFIBUS-PA slave with address 2 cannot be found.

9 Trouble-Shooting

9.2

PLC planning
Cause/Remedy The Siemens S5 PLC cannot interpret the IEEE floating point format. A conversion module is required that transforms the IEEE floating point value into Siemens KG format. This can be obtained from Siemens. The module is for Types 135 U and 155 U but not for 115 U and 95 U. The function module SFC 14 must be used. The SFC 14 ensures that e.g. 5 bytes can be consistently loaded into the SPS. If the SFC 14 is not used, only 4 bytes can be consistently loaded into the Siemens S7. Newer versions of the S7 series can access the I/O buffer directly. The SFC 14 is no longer required. The parameters PV_SCALE and OUT_SCALE are not set correctly. OUT_SCALE_Min. = PV-Min. OUT_SCALE_Max. = PV-Max. Instructions on how to adjust the parameters PV_SCALE and OUT_SCALE in the function block can be taken from the device operating instructions. The bus parameters and baudrate were not set when the PLC was configured. The baudrate to be set depends upon the segment coupler used (Chapter 7-5). - Pepperl+Fuchs SK1: 93,75 kBit/s - Siemens: 45.45 kBit/s - PA link (Siemens): freely selectable - Pepperl+Fuchs SK1: 93.75 kBit/s - Pepperl+Fuchs SK2: freely selectable For P+F SK2, the PROFIBUS PA GSD has not been converted The bus parameters require adjustment The polarity of the PROFIBUS-DP line is reversed (A and B)? PROFIBUS-DP bus not terminated? Both the beginning and the end of the bus must be terminated.

Question/Fault The measured value in the Siemens S5 is incorrect

The measured value in Siemens S7 PLCs is always zero

The measured value at the device display is not the same as that in the PLC.

No connection between the PLC and the PROFIBUS PA network.

9.3

Data transmission
Cause/Remedy The measured values are transmitted in 5 byte long data blocks. 4 bytes are used to transmit the measured value. The fifth byte contains standardised status information. Error codes for Endress+Hauser device faults, e.g. E 641, are not transmitted with the status. For limit switches, the information is transmitted in two bytes: Signal condition and status information. See Chapters 3-4 and 7-2. See Chapter 7.3. See Chapter 7.2

Question/Fault How are data transferred to the PLC?

What does status information mean? How is data transmitted from the Promag 53 to the PLC? How can the totalisor of the Promag 53 be reset? How can the PLC switch on the positive zero return of the Promag 53? How can the totalisor of the Promass 83 be reset? How can I suppress a measured value in cyclic communcaition? How can I write a value to the local display?

Via the output word of the cyclic services for the totalisaer in question, see Chapter 7.2 Via the output word of the cyclic services

Via the output word of the cyclic services, see corresponding operating manual By using the placeholder "EMPTY_MODULE" or "FREE_PLACE" during configuration, see Chapter 7.2. By using the Display_Value model from the GSD (if supported), see Chapter 7.2.

PROFIBUS planning and commissioning

9.4

Commuwin II
Cause/Remedy Commuwin II is a Class 2 master that allows the transmission of acyclic values. The PROFIBUS-DP baudrate to be set depends upon the segment coupler used.

Question/Fault Commuwin II cannot open the connection to the PROFIBUS PA devices. The connection to the devices cannot be opened.

If the PLC and Commuwin II are used in parallel, the bus parameters must be mutually compatible. The bus parameters must be identical for all connected masters. If Commuwin II is used, the Token Rotation Time (TTR) calculated by the PLC configuration tool must be increased by 20 000 bit times and the corresponding value entered in the Commuwin II DDE server In the case of a Siemens S5 system with ComProfibus, the Delta TTR must be increased by 20 000 bit times. The HSA parameter (Highest Station Address) must permit the Commuwin II address. The HSA specifies the highest address permitted for active participants (masters) on the bus. Slaves can have a higher address. Is the Commuwin II address free or is it being used by another device? Is the correct baudrate set? Have the drivers and cards been correctly installed? Is the green LED on the TAP of the Proficard or Profiboard lit? Is the GAP update to high (the result is longer waiting times)? Device is not connected to segment. Address used twice. The device version is not supported by Commuwin II. A full device description is necessary. The default parameters of the PROFIBUS-PA profile are offered. Full operation is possible for Endress+Hauser devices and Samson positioners only. If the measured value at the device display is to be the same as that transmitted to the PLC, the parameters PV_SCALE and OUT_SCALE must be matched. - OUT_SCALE_MIN = PV_SCALE_MIN - OUT_SCALE_MAX = PV_SCALE_MAX See the device operating instructions.

A device does not appear in the live list. Device cannot be fully operated.

A change of unit at the device has no effect on the value on the bus.

Terms and Definitions

This chapter contains a selection of terms and definitions to bemet in fieldbus technology. It is subdivided as follows: Bus architecture Components Data exchange Miscellaneous terms

12.1
Topology

Bus architecture
The structure of the communication system, e.g. linear (bus), tree, ring, star. For PROFIBUS, linear and tree structures are permissible. A device that is connected to and recognised by the communication system. Every participant has a unique address: Active communication participant = master a device that has the right to initiate communcation passive communication participant = slave a device that may communicate only when it receives the right to do so from a master The cable and associated hardware that connects the participants together. Among other things, the physical layer defines how a signal is to be transmitted over the bus, how it is to be interpreted and how many participants are allowed on a segment. The following transmission methods are relevant to PROFIBUS applications: RS-485 Standard for transmission on shielded twisted pairs that is used for PROFIBUS-DP. IEC 61158-2 (MBP Manchester Coded Bus Powered) International fieldbus standard with data transmission and power supply on shielded twisted pairs that is used for PROFIBUS-PA. Fibre optics Alternative to STP for PROFIBUS DP applications when operating in environments with heavy electrical interference or when long buses and high transmission rates are required. Can also be used as a basis for redundant structures. In the case of a tree structure, a network section that is separated from the trunk line by a repeater, segment coupler or link.. Trunk cable The longest bus cable, which is terminated at both ends. Spur Line connecting the field device to trunk cable. For PROFIBUS PA, the number and length of the spurs is limited by the physics and application (standard or explosion-hazardous area (spur cable 30 m, Splice 1 m).

Components
A PNC is in direct contact with the fieldbus and manages the communication with the field devices (= bus master). It can be either a PLC or an operating programm running on a personal computer. The interface between a PROFIBUS DP system and a PROFIBUS PA segment. The signal coupler converts the signal from RS-485 to IEC 61158-2 format and adapts the transmission rate.. Supplies the devices on the PROFIBUS PA segment with power (except those which are externally powered). Normally the signal coupler and bus power unit are contained in a signal unit, e.g. as the segment coupler. The can also be designed as a PLC interface card. A device that serves as both signal coupler and bus power unit. In these guidelines, a segment coupler is considered to be "transparent", i.e. its existence is not recognised by the communication system. The master communicates directly with the connected devices. The coupler includes a terminator and in the case of Ex-versions, a barrier. PROFIBUS DP/PROFIBUS PA interface for the connection of one or more PROFIBUS segments. A link is not "transparent", i.e. there is no direct communication between the master and the PROFIBUS PA slaves. Their data are collected by the links and made available as a whole to the PROFIBUS DP master. A link is a slave in a PROFIBUS DP system but a master to the connected PROFIBUS PA segments. A repeater amplifies the communication signal, thus allowing the bus length to be extended. Up to 4 repeaters are allowed per bus segment (PROFIBUS PA). A repeater is a bus participant. Actuators and sensors that are connected to a PROFIBUS PA/PROFIBUS DP segment. Field devices are normally slave. Means of connecting individual field devices to the trunk cable. The field devices can be connected directly to the T-box or via a spur. T-boxes are used for distribution only had have no intelligence. Means of connecting several field devices to the trunk cable. Normally, the field devices are connected to the junction box by a spur. Junction boxes are used for distribution only had have no intelligence. Component that terminates the beginning and end of the bus segment, in order to avoid interfering reflections. For PROFIBUS-PA, one terminator is built inot the segment coupler. Various T-boxes have a built-in terminator that can be switched on when the box is at the end of the segment. For explosionhazardous applications a separate bus terminator must be used.

Data exchange
The mechanism that is used to ensure proper communication between the participants on the network. A bus access method for communication systems with several masters (multimaster system). During the network design stage, a central list containing every master with its assigned access time is compiled . The master with the token has the right to transmit for this period of time. Afterwards, the token is passed on to the next master in the list. After the list has be worked through, the procedure is started over again. The time required until all the masters in a token ring have been worked through. Normally, the token rotation time also corresponds the update time for the plant data base. A bus access method in which the right to transmit is assigned to one participant only (the master), whereas all the other participants (slaves) can only transmit when requested to do so. A mixture between two bus access methods, e.g. for PROFIBUS-DP the masters are linked together in a logical token right, but communicate directly with their slaves using the master-slave method. The regular exchange of data between a master and its slaves. For measuring instruments, this concerns the measured value and status signals. The irregular exchange of data between a master and a slave. For measuring instruments, this usually concerns the adjustment of process-relevant device parameters during commissioning or operation. Alternatively a detailed error message may be transmitted when a bad status is detected. The time required in cyclic data exchange to collect the complete set of data available on a bus segment. A unique device code used to identify a bus participant, which enables the master to transmit data to a particular slave on the network. The bus address is normally set via DIP switch or software.
