Unitronics V130, V350, V430 and V700 PLC's all have the ability to act as a Profibus slave
All Unitronics PLC's have excellent communication abilities with a variety of physical ports and software protocols available
to interface different control equipment from many manufacturers. The V130, V350, V430 and V700 series integrated PLC/HMI are unique in
that a Profibus board can be fitted to allow the units to act as a Profibus slave. Function blocks in the Visilogic programming
software make implementation genuinely simple and quick leaving more time for writing machine control.
A simple one line , one element program configures the V350 or V130 as a Profibus slave with the ability to let the master
read and write 96 registers and 1024 bits.
Combine this Profibus port with another protocol, such as Modbus running on a serial port, and you have a Gateway from one
network to another. A V130, V350, V430 and V700 combined PLC/HMI acting as a Profibus slave has two additional ports fitted, one
RS232/RS485 and one CANbus capable of running the following protocols.
CANbus master
Modbus RTU slave
Modbus RTU master
Allen Bradley DF1 slave
User defined protocol
The V130, V350, V430 and V700 PLCs can be used as a standalone Profibus Gateway or they can also have their own IO and act as a PLC and HMI
as well.
