Description
The product detailed in this description is designed for applications requiring robust industrial communication interfaces. It is identified by two part numbers: 198983B-01, which is listed, and 780160-01, mentioned within the description. This product falls into the category of Industrial Communication Interfaces and is a PCI PROFIBUS model.
This interface is specifically a PCI 1 PORT PROFIBUS MASTER/SLAVE INTERFACE, indicating its capacity to function as either a master or slave in PROFIBUS networks. The interface type, as expected, is PROFIBUS, a standard for fieldbus communication in automation technology. It supports a single port (1 Port) configuration, making it suitable for connecting a single device or network segment directly to a PC.
It finds its application in various industrial settings, including but not limited to HMI (Human Machine Interface), SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition), and general Industrial Control systems. One of the notable support features of this product is its compatibility with LabVIEW, as it comes with available LabVIEW drivers, enhancing its utility for engineers and developers working in these environments.
Among its key features, the interface boasts an Integrated CPU and a Hardware Watchdog. These features contribute to the reliability and robustness of the device, ensuring stable operation even in demanding industrial environments. The integrated CPU offloads processing from the host PC, while the hardware watchdog helps in recovering from potential failures, improving overall system uptime.
