Siemens 6ES7972-0AB01-0XA0 Electronic Amplifier With Advanced Diagnostic And Repeater Features For PROFIBUS DP

Key Features

• Diagnostic Functions:
  • Topology Detection: Determines the physical layout of the PROFIBUS network, including node addresses and distances, and stores this data in a topology table .
  • Fault Location: Continuously monitors the bus during operation, pinpointing the location and type of faults (e.g., cable breaks, short circuits) relative to known nodes .
  • Time Stamping: Equipped with an internal clock that timestamps diagnostic events, statistics, and topology data .
• Repeater Functions:
  • Supports up to 31 nodes per segment and allows the connection of three PROFIBUS segments (DP1, DP2, DP3), enabling up to 62 nodes to be connected per diagnostic repeater .
  • Automatic Baud Rate Search: Automatically detects and configures the baud rate upon startup .
• Communication & Performance:
  • Transmission Rate: Supports 9.6 kbit/s to 12 Mbit/s with automatic baud rate detection .
  • PROFIBUS DP Interface: 1 × RS-485 interface .
