PROFIBUS DP and DP-V1: the PROFIBUS PCIe® (PCI Express®) Fieldbus Cards from Beckhoff can master the following PROFIBUS features:

  • master, slave and PROFIBUS monitor up to 12 Mbit/s
  • powerful parameter and diagnostics interfaces
  • the error management for each bus user is freely configurable
  • it is possible to read the bus configuration and automatically assign the GSE files

In TwinCAT, all functions are conveniently available. Other applications also benefit from the diverse features: general drivers for different Windows versions and convenient configuration tools are included in the TwinCAT I/O software package.
