Profibus Master and Slave Modes : Are they Supported for FDL, DP and FMS ? Hardware: Industrial Communications>>Profibus
Problem: What Profibus Master and Slave modes are supported in Lookout and Industrial Automation Server? Solution: Profibus support is available for Industrial Automation OPC Server and Lookout through the Profibus Interface cards (PC-1500PFB, PCI-1500PFB, and PCI-1500S7 - developed by Applicom). There are 3 different Profibus protocols: FDL, DP, FMS. The currently available Profibus Interface for ISA and PCI cards supports Master mode for all three protocols, however the Slave mode has support only for the Profibus FMS (not for the FDL or the DP).
