Terms, Definitions and Abbreviations Used in This Manual User Manual PROFview XL

Terms, Definitions and Abbreviations Used in this Manual

Baud rate Data transfer rate (1 baud = 1 bit/s)

Differential voltage is the voltage between the RS485 signal lines A (pin 8) and B (pin 3)

UD= UB- UA

Disturbance-free voltage

range The term 'disturbance-free voltage range' is used to denote a voltage range of the differential voltage

for a selected station over the whole frame, whose limits are not violated - not even momentarily - over

the evaluation period.

DMF Device master file; description of the technical data of a PROFIBUS device

DSO Digital storage oscilloscope

Evaluation period 10/16th of the bit width around the bit center (RS485 transceiver-sample point), within which the distur-

bance-free voltage range is measured

Firmware Software for a microprocessor

FPGA Field Programmable Gate Array – programmable logic array for real-time functions

Idle Bus condition or transmission break between two successive frames

ID number Device code of a PROFIBUS device used for assignment to the device master file (DMF).

Illegal frames Frames which do not conform to IEC 61158-3 (with protocol errors)

Master Active bus station (usually the PLC) coordinating the access to the bus

Relevant frame The term 'relevant frame' is used if a frame contains the source address of the bus station to be mea-

sured (or the short acknowledgment following a request frame issued to this station)

Segment PROFIBUS section terminated on both line ends using a powered resistor combination. A repeater

which is either inserted between line ends or else connected to one line end also constitutes a seg-

ment termination.

Slave Bus station which as a rule only sends to the bus upon request by the master (e.g. digital I/O)

Token Frame (SD4) which is exchanged between the active stations (masters) to control the access to the

PROFIBUS
