    Power Terminal Modules Power Terminal modules can be placed in an I/O Station to provide additional power, to electrically isolate different circuits, or to create areas with different voltages (ie: 24VDC versus 120VAC) within a station. Multiple Power Terminal modules can be used in an I/O station. A Power Terminal module supplies voltage for both the main circuit and the segment circuit.

  • Page 35: Segment Terminal Modules

    Segment Terminal Modules Segment Terminal modules can be used to create a segment circuit within the main circuit.

  • Page 39: Status Leds And I/O Points

    Status LEDs and I/O Points The illustration below shows the relationship between the status LEDs on a module and the module inputs or outputs. In general, an I/O module's status LEDs appear over their associated terminals. In cases where two I/O points are terminated in the same column (for 4 and 16 point modules), the LED's relative position (top or bottom) indicates the I/O point it is associated with.

  • Page 40: Connectors

    Connectors The connection of the I/O or supply voltages is made by using a connector that can be plugged on or off the modules.

    Powerup Autoconfiguration of the NIU The NIU’s baud rate and I/O module map are automatically set when the NIU powers up. On powerup the Profibus NIU identifies the baud rate setting of the Profibus master and automatically adjusts to match. The NIU can communicate at network speeds of 9.6kbps to 12mbps.

  • Page 103: Configuration Of The Profibus Master

    Configuration of the Profibus Master Profibus-DP is normally a single master system. This master is typically a communications card installed in a Programmable Logic Controller, industrial PC, or other controller (Drive, Computer Numerical Control, etc.). In each case these masters require configuration information for the attached Profibus Slaves to be input.

    Accessing NIU Data When accessing the NIU, use DP/V1 format. Accessing Module Data The PCP data from VersaPoint I/O modules is usually addressed via 16-bit object indices.

When communicating with objects on I/O Station modules, the response should be fetched using Read.
