ZC incorporate
a SUB-D 9-pin male connector for direct connection on
CANopen bus.
CANopen bus is a open bus that ensures deterministic and
reliable access to the real-time data of automation equipment.
The bus uses a shielded dual twisted pair on which a maximum
of 127 devices can be connected by chaining.
The baud rate varies between 10 Kbps and 1Mbps depending
on the length of the bus (5000 m to 20 m).

ZP are slaves
on the Profibus bus.
Profibus bus is a fieldbus that meets industrial communication
requirements. The topology of the Profibus bus is of the linear
type with a centralised master/slave type access procedure.
The physical link is a single shielded twisted pair.

incorporate
a Modbus communication interface (RJ45 connector) for
configuration and diagnostics.
This interface enables connection of the controllers to:
v
a PC (configuration),
v
a PLC (diagnostics), or
v
an operator dialogue terminal (diagnostics).
The Modbus serial link comprises a master station (Premium
automation platform) and slave stations (configurable
controllers XPS MC16/32Z
p
).
Two exchange mechanisms are possible:
b
Question/response
:
the questions from the master are
addressed to a given slave. The response is expected by
return from the interrogated slave.
b
Distribution
:
the master distributes a message to all the
stations of the Modbus serial link. The latter execute the order
without transmitting a reply.
