Key Functions

• PROFIBUS DP ↔ Ethernet Protocol Conversion:
  Supports seamless bidirectional data translation between PROFIBUS DP (master/slave modes, compliant with EN 50170) and two mainstream Ethernet protocols:

• PROFINET IO: Operates in device mode, compatible with PROFINET RT (real-time) for cyclic I/O data transmission, enabling integration with PROFINET controllers (e.g., Siemens S7-1200/1500, third-party PROFINET PLCs).

• Modbus TCP/IP: Functions as client/server mode, supporting universal data exchange (e.g., parameter reading, status monitoring) with Modbus TCP-enabled SCADA/HMI systems.
  It handles both cyclic (real-time control signals, latency <15ms) and acyclic (configuration, diagnostics) data, maintaining compatibility with PROFIBUS DP’s native communication logic.

• PROFIBUS DP Interface Capabilities:
  Features a 9-pin D-Sub PROFIBUS DP interface (compliant with EN 50170) with:

• Optical Isolation (2.5kVrms): Prevents electrical noise, ground loops, and voltage spikes from industrial environments from damaging the gateway or connected DP devices, ensuring stable communication.

• Auto-Adaptive Baud Rates: Supports 9.6 kbps to 12 Mbps, automatically matching the baud rate of the existing PROFIBUS DP network without manual adjustment.

• Multi-Device Support: When operating as a PROFIBUS DP master, it can connect up to 32 PROFIBUS DP slave devices (e.g., sensors, valves, remote I/O modules); when in slave mode, it directly connects to a PROFIBUS DP master (e.g., Siemens S7-300/400).

• Ethernet Interface & Network Flexibility:
  Equipped with 1x RJ45 Ethernet port (10/100 Mbps auto-adaptive, full/half-duplex) with:

• Auto-Crossover Function: Eliminates the need for crossover cables, simplifying on-site wiring (can use standard straight-through Ethernet cables for connection to switches or controllers).

• DHCP/Static IP Support: Automatically obtains an IP address from a DHCP server (for quick deployment) or supports manual static IP configuration (for fixed network environments).

• Configuration & Diagnostics:

• Green Power LED: Indicates normal power supply.

• Flashing DP Activity LED: Indicates ongoing PROFIBUS DP data transmission.

• Flashing Ethernet Activity LED: Indicates ongoing Ethernet data transmission.

• Red Fault LED: Triggers for errors (e.g., DP bus fault, Ethernet link loss) to enable quick issue identification.

• Configuration Tools: Compatible with Hilscher’s SYCON.net software—a visual configuration platform that allows users to define data mapping (between DP and Ethernet data points), set protocol parameters (e.g., DP address, Modbus register mapping), and save/load configuration templates for batch deployment.

• Status Monitoring: 4 LED indicators (Power, PROFIBUS DP Activity, Ethernet Activity, Fault) for on-site visual troubleshooting:

• Auxiliary Features:

• Fault Logging: Records communication errors (e.g., DP frame loss, Ethernet timeout) in internal memory, accessible via SYCON.net software for root-cause analysis and preventive maintenance.

• Firmware Upgrade: Supports firmware updates via Ethernet, allowing users to add new protocol features or fix bugs without physical access to the gateway, extending its lifecycle.
