What is the part number for the Modbus to PROFIBUS DP gateway, and how is it used?
Resolution:
The part number for the Modbus to PROFIBUS DP gateway is LUFP7.
The LUFP7 is a general-purpose gateway that enables communication between PROFIBUS DP networks and Modbus devices. It is not designed for a specific product, but instead must be configured to allow PROFIBUS to read and write Modbus registers.
Key Points:
- Configuration is done using ABC configuration software, which is included with the LUFP7.
- The gateway allows cyclic data exchange between PROFIBUS and Modbus devices.
- It is recommended for use with ATV31 drives and ATS48 soft starters, as indicated in Schneider Electric catalogs.
- The LUFP7 can also be used with other Modbus-compatible devices when properly configured.
