smartLink HW-DP provides PLC independent access to PROFIBUS DP Networks. It enables Plant Asset Management for field devices using standard industry tools and allows using HART IP as a standardized format. smartLink HW-DP is a compact tool that can be integrated without interfering with the operation of existing installations. Thus, it enables Industry 4.0 connectivity for new and existing PROFIBUS DP networks.
Configuration, Parameterization and Plant Asset Management Using Standard Industry Tools
Independent of configuration tools
Centralized and time-saving parameterization of PROFIBUS and HART field devices directly from the control room using HART IP and HART over PROFIBUS
Access to Plant Asset Management applications for field devices configuration based on FDT / DTM and EDDL standards (acyclic master)
Direct Connectivity to PROFIBUS Segments
Single access point to PROFIBUS DP segment from Industrial Ethernet networks
Acts as PROFIBUS DP master class 2
Support of one PROFIBUS DP segment
Key Component for Transition to State-of-the-Art Technology
Re-use of existing PROFIBUS segments without requiring modification
Access to cyclic and acyclic data via HART-IP and OPC UA
