PROFIBUS Gateway EU5C-SWD-DP1003/11 MN05013002Z-ENThe SmartWire-DT ribbon cable is connected to the slaves atthe gateway. Connection to the PROFIBUS field bus iseffected via the standardized 9-pole PROFIBUS plug. In addi-tion terminals for two power supplies are available, one forthe SmartWire-DT slaves and another 24 volts for supply ofthe contactor coils in case these are also operated via Smart-Wire-DT slaves. The power supply of the SmartWire-DTslaves and the data communication are conducted via the 8-pole SmartWire-DT cable from the gateway to the slaves.Engineering In connection with the SmartWire-DT slaves the couplingunit appears as a modular slave on the PROFIBUS. EachSmartWire-DT slave is a module of its own. Up to 58 Smart-Wire-DT slaves can be operated via a PROFIBUS couplingunit. However, take heed of the maximum data volume thatcan be exchanged via PROFIBUS. The maximum for aPROFIBUS slave is 240 bytes of input data and 240 bytes ofoutput data.The SmartWire-DT network may be extended up to 600 m.h Information about the volume of input/output data of anSmartWire-DT slave is provided in the Appendix of themanual MN05006001Z-EN (previously AWB2723-1613en), "SmartWire-DT slaves".
