Note the following: WARNING Siemens products may only be used for the applications described in the catalog and in the relevant technical documentation. If products and components from other manufacturers are used, these must be recommended or approved by Siemens. Proper transport, storage, installation, assembly, commissioning, operation and maintenance are required to ensure that the products operate safely and without any problems.
Introduction The PROFIBUS OBT (Optical Bus Terminal) it is a network component used in optical PROFIBUS DP fieldbus networks. It allows the connection of either a single device without an integrated optical interface or an RS-485 segment to the optical PROFIBUS DP. The following figure shows an example of a configuration.
Page 6
Introduction Connections The connection between the individual bus nodes takes the form of an optical bus with two- fiber plastic fiber-optic cables (plastic fiber-optic cables are also known as POF, Polymer Optical Fiber) or PCF fiber-optic cables (PCF = Polymer Cladded Fiber, synonymous with HCS1 fiber-optic cable).

Functional description The OBT is a repeater with 3 channels. Interfaces The OBT has the following interfaces for connection of PROFIBUS DP segments: ● Channel 1 (CH1) is an electrical RS-485 interface. It is designed as a 9-pin D-sub female connector.
Functional description 3.3 Supported FO fiber types Supported FO fiber types The OBT supports the fiber types listed in the following table: Table 3- 1 Achievable FO cable distance between the two devices on optical PROFIBUS DP Fiber type Link length between 2 devices Plastic FO cable 980/1000 μm with 2 fibers 0.1 to 50 meters and max.

Functional description 3.5 Operator controls Operator controls The OBT itself does not have any controls. The only point to remember is that the PROFIBUS connecting cable connected to channel 1 (does not ship with product) needs to be terminated at both ends.

Network topology Optical bus Along with other SIMATIC devices such as the IM 153–2 FO or IM 467 FO, OBTs are connected to optical PROFIBUS DP to form an optical bus. PROFIBUS DP bus nodes with an RS-485 interface are connected to channel 1 of the OBT via bus connectors and a PROFIBUS bus cable.
Network topology 4.2 Integration of long FO cable runs Integration of long FO cable runs The maximum permitted length of PCF FO cable with the OBT is 300 m. If longer FO links or other FO cable types, for example glass graded index fibers or monomode fibers are necessary, they can be used by combining OBTs with OLMs (Optical Link Module).
Network topology 4.3 Integrating RS-485 segments Integrating RS-485 segments The OBT allows the attachment of a PROFIBUS RS-485 segment. Image 4-2 Example of the integration of RS-485 segments PROFIBUS Optical Bus Terminal (OBT) Operating Instructions, 04/2016, C79000-G8976-C122-07...
Commissioning Note Use the PROFIBUS OBT only as intended in these Operating Instructions. Note Pay particular attention to all warnings and notices relevant to safety. WARNING Operate the PROFIBUS OBT only with safety extra-low voltage complying with IEC 950 / EN 60 950/VDE 0805 of maximum +28.8 V (typically +24 V).
Page 18
Commissioning Note Make sure that the PROFIBUS OBT is adequately grounded by connecting the DIN rail or mounting plate to local ground with low resistance and inductance. When securing the module to a mounting plate, run a cable from the grounding terminal of the OBT to the nearest possible ground, keeping the cable as short as possible.

Commissioning WARNING This equipment is suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, and D or non- hazardous locations only. WARNING This equipment is suitable for use in Class I, Zone 2, Group IIC or non-hazardous locations only.
Commissioning 5.1 Procedure for commissioning Procedure for commissioning Commissioning the PROFIBUS OBT involves the following steps: ● Mounting the PROFIBUS OBT; ● Connecting the power supply; ● Connecting the optical bus cables; ● Connecting the electrical RS-485 bus cable. Installation Mounting the PROFIBUS OBT The PROFIBUS OBTs can be mounted either on a 35 mm DIN rail with a height of 15 mm according to DIN 50 022 - 35 x 15 or directly on a flat surface.
Page 21
Commissioning 5.2 Installation Image 5-1 Mounting a module on a DIN rail Mounting on a mounting plate The PROFIBUS OBTs have two holes. These allow mounting on any flat surface, for example on the mounting plate of a cabinet. Drill two holes in the mounting plate as shown in the drilling template in Figure 5-2. Secure the module with two machine screws (for example M3 x 75 and M3 x 55).

Commissioning 5.2 Installation The fiber of the FO cable must be flush with the surface of the connector. Note If the fiber juts out beyond the surface of the connector, the connector must not be inserted in the socket. Otherwise there is a risk of destroying the optical components. Connecting the electrical RS-485 cable Channel CH1 is used to connect a single PROFIBUS DP end device or an RS-485 segment.
