Hello Berg; Do you mean the CP 5711 should act as a Profibus-Ethernet converter?Or did I read your post wrong? Just in case, the CP 5711 is a USB to Profibus/MPI converter. Here is some of the technical data of the CP 5711: 4. Technical data
http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/34780027 One of our clients once used a INAT Echobridge in his plants, but the model he used had 5 DP ports, maybe a little heavy for your application. Look here for more modes: http://www.inat.de/index.php?id=252&L=1 Softing has a Profibus/Ethernet gateway you could look at: http://www.directindustry.com/prod/softing/ethernet-profibus-fieldbus-gateway-11592-109246.html If you find anything moreinteresting, please shoiw it on the forum, I'm sure it could be of interest to the members. Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier |

Hello Berg here are a few more Ethernet to PPI/MPI/DP converter linksthat may interest you and/or are what you are after: S7-Lan from Process Informatik Net Link from Systeme Helmholz IBH Link S7 from IBH Softec ACCON Net Link from Deltalogic You are spoilt for choice I think and Ihope this helps. P.S: There is of course nothing wrong with Siemens new CP5711, note that you will need Step7 V5.4 SP5 for it though. |
