MULTIrep family – The compact multiple repeater
Function
Using a repeater allows an enlargement of your PROFIBUS network until
up to 126 devices and to create higher line lengths depending on the
fieldbus transmission speed. Per segment a maximum of 32 devices (31 +
repeater) is acceptable. The MULTIrep produces a voltage signal in two,
five or even seven directions and raises the signals to the PROFIBUS
standard level.
From the physical point of view the MULTIrep provides up to seven iso-
lated segments. The integrated diagnosis via LED allows a simple troub-
leshooting in each segment.
Instruction for use
Using the MULTIrep creates up to seven galvanically isolated segments.
For the purpose of diagnostic measurements a measuring point should
be provided at the beginning and end of every segment. Therefore the
PG interfaces at the 9-pin sub-D plugs can be used as measuring points.
If a segment ends or begins directly at the connections of the repeater,
it is necessary to activate the bus terminating resistors at the plugs. MULTIrep family
Fieldbus connection and termination
PROFIBUS is connected by a 9 pin sub-D socket (according to PROFIBUS
guideline). If the segment ends or starts directly at repeater terminals,
bus termination resistors have to be activated directly at the plugs.
