FNL Proxy PN/PB – Integration of PROFIBUS DP systems into PROFINET IO networks
The 24 Volt hat rail module contains one PROFIBUS DP interface, four PROFINET IO RT interfaces as well as one RS232 service interface for commissioning and diagnostics.

The proxy integrates both existing and new PROFIBUS DP devices without any modification or adaptation into a PROFINET IO network. The PROFIBUS DP interface supports baud rates from 9.6 kbit/s to 12 Mbit/s.
The FNL Proxy PN/PB implements a plenty of PROFIBUS diagnostic functions as well as additional features, such as the configurable behaviour of the PROFIBUS DP Master in case of a break down of the PROFINET IO network or the detailed indication of error codes. Of course, it is also possible to combine several proxies.
CONFIGURATOR II
COMSOFT‘s CONFIGURATOR II is available for compilation and download of the PROFIBUS configuration. The comfortable
and full graphical tool compiles the PROFIBUS configuration via drag and drop mechanism. The integrated online mode allows direct commissioning and diagnostics of the connected PROFIBUS network via Ethernet. CONFIGURATOR II exports a GSDML file compliant to PROFINET IO which can be imported and processed by any PROFINET IO controller configuration tool.
The proxy implemented as PROFINET IO device and based on the Siemens ERTEC400 PROFINET IO controller supports PROFINET IO according to the current specification 2.0 and uses the modular mapping procedure. Input and output
data as well as diagnostic data of the single DP Slaves are depicted through device modules (slots and sub-slots). Diagnostics are reported by a PROFINET IO alarm.
Furthermore SNMP diagnostics are included and the TFTP server based firmware update is supported.
