Matchbox-size Profibus interface
Designed for mobile deployment, the PBPro USB connects the Profibus world to a PC through a high-speed USB connection that at the same time also supplies the energy. It is a practical companion for tasks such as Profibus network configuration, parameterising, operation data acquisition or maintenance. The interface is plugged directly to a Profibus unit in the target system, thereby avoiding signal reflections on the Profibus line.
Besides drivers for a broad range of operating system from Windows XP (still very popular in industrial automation) to Windows 10 as well as a number of program examples, the delivery includes a communications DTM for FTD applications as well as a Profibus configurator with starting-up functions.
Due to the software compatibility to its popular predecessor PROFlusb, the product can immediately be deployed in a broad range of typical applications. OPC client applications can be integrated via the optional Profibus OPC server.
