468 Fieldbus control through a fieldbus adapter

System overview

The drive can be connected to an external control system through an optional
fieldbus adapter ("fieldbus adapter A" = FBA A) mounted onto the control unit of the
drive. The drive can be configured to receive all of its control information through the
fieldbus interface, or the control can be distributed between the fieldbus interface and
other available sources such as digital and analog inputs, depending on how control
locations EXT1 and EXT2 are configured.
Fieldbus adapters are available for various communication systems and protocols, for
example:
• PROFIBUS DP (FPBA-01 adapter)
• PROFINET (FPNO-21)
• CANopen (FCAN-01 adapter)
• EtherCAT (FECA-01 adapter)
• EtherNet/IP (FEIP-21)
• Modbus/TCP (FMBT-21)
TM
• EtherNet IP /PROFINET IO/Modbus/TCP (FENA-11/-21)
• ModbusRTU (FSCA-01)
