• Fast and reliable linking Profibus-DP and DeviceNet with data buffering 
• DeviceNet-PLC link, e.g. to SIEMENS S7-300 or S7-400
  
   

Linking DP and DeviceNet—The module DN-DP can link any Profibus-DP master to a DeviceNet network. The DN-DP gateway operates as a slave-I/O component with a total of maximum 312 bytes data (partitioning from up to 244 bytes input and 68 bytes output to 244 bytes output and 68 bytes input data) on the DP-bus. At the DeviceNet the DN-DP can operate as a scanner or as a slave device.

Applications—With the DN-DP gateway you can couple DeviceNet modules to
e.g., a SIMATIC-S7. The number of DeviceNet participants is not limited by the module.

Physical Interfaces—The DN-DP supports all DeviceNet compatible bitrates The Profibus-DP-Slave interface automatically recognizes all usual bit rates up to 12 Mbit/s. The DP as well as the DeviceNet interface are electrically isolated.

Configuration—The module can be configured via PROFIBUS configuration tool, e.g., the PLC SIMATIC Manager.
