Design

Figure 2-24 DP/EIB Link

The DP/EIB link allows a connection between the two open standard systems for industrial automation PROFIBUS-DP and building automation instabus EIB. This provides an ideal connection between the high performance of the PROFIBUS components and the extreme flexibility of the instabus EIB system.

The DP/EIB link is a DP slave (complying with EN 50170) and at the same time a node on the instabus EIB.

The displays and operating controls are as follows:

SLED for EIB bus errors

SLED for PROFIBUS bus errors

SLED for power supply OK

SCoding switch for the PROFIBUS address

SProgramming button for EIB.

Uses

The DP/EIB link can be used wherever PROFIBUS or instabus EIB is used; in other words, a distinction can be made between two areas of application:
