Product Description
IC220PBI002 is manufactured by GE Fanuc Automation as part of the VersaPoint series. This part is a PROFIBUS-DP Network Interface Module. The data rate is up to 12 mbits per second. Serial communications are supported on the unit. Firmware upgrades are not supported on the unit. 24 VDC is the nominal power input voltage. 19.2-30 VDC is the power voltage range. There are 63 supported modules possible on the unit. There is no web support of numeric LCD display on this module. There are no digital inputs or outputs.
The maximum power in is 8 amperes. The current for Local Bus UA is 500 mA. The required terminal strip, IC220TBK087, contains 10 strips. The PROFIBUS system includes the Profibus-DP Network Interface Unit, connectors, DIP switches, and LEDs. A set of interconnected VersaPoint I/O modules can be connected as a slave on a Profibus-DP network. The VersaPoint Profibus-DP Network Interface Unit is the interface between the network and the modules. There can be up to 176 bytes of input and output data per station for module IC220PBI002.
This unit also provides acknowledgement of I/O errors from the user program, fail-safe values, acyclic communications with modules such as RS-232 modules in the process data channel, and DP/V1 for Class 1 and Class 2 masters. The Profibus master specifies the speed that the NIU adjusts to automatically. This module also features PCP module operation, byte rotation for 32-point input and output modules, and an assignable station ID. IC220PBI002 directly replaces IC220PBI001 when its DIP switch 8 is in the ON position.
