Information About FC3101-0000
The FC3101-0000 is a PROFIBUS master and slave card from Beckhoff that allows seamless integration of PC-based control systems into PROFIBUS networks. Equipped with a PCI™ interface, it supports standard PROFIBUS DP as well as advanced profiles including DP-V1, DP-V2, and PROFIBUS MC for synchronized, equidistant communication. With one galvanically isolated channel and support for data transfer rates up to 12 Mbit/s, the card ensures fast and reliable communication in industrial environments. Hardware diagnostics are simplified with two dedicated LEDs per channel, while support for up to 3 kbytes of process data per direction makes it suitable for a wide range of automation tasks.
Key Features:
-
PROFIBUS Master and Slave Functionality: Supports both roles in PROFIBUS communication, enabling flexible integration in automation networks.
-
Single Channel Operation: Offers one galvanically isolated PROFIBUS channel with stable data exchange.
-
High-Speed Data Transfer: Handles transmission rates from 9.6 kbaud up to 12 Mbit/s, providing compatibility with diverse PROFIBUS devices.
-
Advanced PROFIBUS Standards: Supports DP, DP-V1 (Class 1+2 with acyclic services and alarms), DP-V2, and PROFIBUS MC for equidistant communication.
-
PCI™ Interface: Ensures straightforward installation in PC-based control systems using standard slots.
-
Process Data Capacity: Provides up to 3 kbytes of input and output data per channel for efficient communication handling.
-
Hardware Diagnostics with LEDs: Features 2 diagnostic LEDs per channel for real-time system status and troubleshooting.
-
Compact Single-Slot Design: Occupies minimal space with dimensions of 106 × 175 mm, making it easy to integrate into industrial PCs.
The FC3101-0000 delivers the reliability and precision required for PROFIBUS-based automation systems and PC-driven industrial communication.
