Bus communication

CS 275

CS 275

Overview

In the following, you will be provided with information relevant to connection of the AS 488/TM to the CS 275 bus system. Please refer to Catalog PLT 130 for detailed information on the TELEP- ERM M CS 275 bus system, in particular on design and mode of operation.

Configuration

TPM 478 interface module

The AS 488/TM automation system and the CS-L2 bridge can be connected to the CS 275 bus system via the TPM 478 interface module. Two functions are integrated on this interface module:

CS 275 functionality

A powerful CPU processes the communications functions to the CS 275 bus system. The functionality of the TPM 478 inter- face module corresponds to that of the N-AS standard local bus interface module in the AS 235 automation system. Excep- tion: CD mode is not supported.

An AS 488/TM automation system can only be connected to ei- ther the PROFIBUS-TM or CS 275 system bus.

TELEPERM I/O functionality

In the AS 488/TM automation system, the TPM 478 module to- gether with the TBX 478 module also provides the interface to the TELEPERM M I/Os. The two modules provide two I/O bus interfaces for TELEPERM M basic and extension cabinets, and provide the +5 V bus for the I/O bus logic.

Only one TPM 478 module is required for both functionalities, i.e. for the CS 275 functionality and the TELEPERM M

I/O functionality.

Configuring

Configuring depends on whether the TPM 478 module is used in the AS 488/TM automation system or in the CS-L2 bridge. The system parameters as well as the bus and station addresses are defined when configuring.

The commissioning terminal is used as the configuring tool. The commissioning terminal software is included in the scope of de- livery of the system software for the AS 488/TM system and the CS-L2 bridge.

The configuring data are transmitted from the commissioning terminal to the memory card of the AS 488/TM system using a transfer file. The current system parameters are loaded into the system memory of the CPU when the system is restarted, and the AS 488/TM system executes automatically on the CS 275 system bus.

When configuring the CS-L2 bridge, the bus and station addresses are defined on the CS 275 bus system, and the address range is also specified via which the stations on the PROFIBUS-TM can be accessed.
