5 Establishing PROFIBUS DP Network by RTU-PD01

The right-side interface on RTU-PD01 is connectable to DVP-Slim series special I/O modules and

digital I/O modules. The RS-485 port is connectable to standard Modbus devices. See the figure below

for the connection of Slim series I/O modules and Modbus devices and into the PROFIBUS DP

network.

6 Transmission Distance and Baud Rate

The baud rate range for PROFIBUS DP is 9.6kbps ~ 12Mbps, and the length of transmission cable

varies upon the transmission speed. The transmission distance ranges from 100m to 1,200m. See the

table below for the baud rates RTU-PD01 supports and their corresponding communication distance.
