Figure 3-2 Example of a system configuration with PROFIBUS DP
System features:
● The SITRANS SL is controlled by the automation system via PROFIBUS DP.
● The measurement results from the SITRANS SL are output to the automation system via
PROFIBUS DP.
● When external sensors are to be connected the first choice to do so is to use PROFIBUS
DP although connection via analog input of the automation system is also possible.
● A PC/PG used for the configuration of the automation system is connected to this
automation system via an MPI cable.
