Connect Profibus to a PLC5E

Get Your Profibus Controller Connected Directly to the Data Table of your PLC5E
The 460ETCPBS moves data between a Profibus Controller device and 1-5 PLC5Es.

With the 460ETCPBS you are making a direct connection between Profibus Controller data and user defined Tags or Registers in the data table of your PLC5E. There is no polling from the PLC or Ethernet/IP scan lists to arrange. This is a direct connection between bytes in your Profibus Master and the data table of your PLC5E.

How Does the Data Move In and Out of the PLC5E?
You allocate two areas of tags or register blocks in your PLC5E. One area is a user defined set of write only tags or register blocks accepting data from your Profibus device. The other area is full of read only tags or register blocks to send data to your Profibus device. You directly map up to 10 Profibus Slots of up to 244 bytes in and out of the data table of your PLC5E.

It’s really that simple.

Why use Real Time Automation as a Gateway Supplier?
The 460ETCPBS provides an option to access a Profibus Controller device without having to upgrade your PLC or get an expensive in rack solution. While there are certainly a number of other companies offering stand alone gateways, there is no one who provides the level of support and service that you receive from RTA.

When you call, a live person answers the phone. When you talk with sales, you will get honest answers and recommendations even if that means recommending someone else’s solution. When you get support, it is from an engineer who had a hand in the product’s development, and support doesn’t require a ticket or 24 hour wait. We are unashamed of the fact that we are a smaller company because that means you mean a lot more to us.
