Modbus TCP/IP to DF1 Master/Slave Gateway
5201-MNET-DFCM
The ProLinx Modbus TCP/IP to DF1 Master/Slave Gateway creates a powerful connection between devices on a Modbus TCP/IP network and DF1 devices. This stand-alone DIN-rail mounted protocol gateway provides one Ethernet port and up to four serial ports.
The Modbus TCP/IP protocol driver can interface many different protocols into Schneider Electric Quantum processors as well other solutions supporting the protocol. The MNET driver supports Client and Server connections, and when coupled with the Web option provides a web/ftp interface as well.
The DF1 protocol driver supports Master or Slave implementations of the protocol on each DF1 port. All DF1 ports are individually configurable.

Funktionen und Vorteile
Applications
The MNET-DFCM modules are the ideal solution for the many applications where Modbus TCP/IP connectivity can be used to integrate DF1 devices into a system. The Modbus TCP/IP gateway is a powerful module designed with both Client and Server support, enabling easy connection to other Modbus TCP/IP devices (Modicon processors and many others). In combination with the DF1 Master/Slave device support, the module provides a very powerful interface to the many DF1 devices which are in use in the industrial marketplace today. Applications for the module are found in most industries, especially the Manufacturing, Oil and Gas, Electrical Power and Food Processing.

Technische Daten
Internal Database
The ProLinx module contains an internal database that consists of areas for application data, status information, and configuration information.
The internal database is shared between all ports on the module and is used as a conduit to pass information from a device on one network to one or more devices on another network.
Application Data Area
The data area is used to store and retrieve data by the protocol drivers and for data exchange between protocols. The database is used as a source for write commands to remote devices and holds data collected from the remote devices. Commands defined in the configuration file (stored in the configuration data area) control how the data is to be handled in the database.
Status Data Area
This area is used to store error codes, counters, and port status information for each port.
Configuration Data Area
This area contains module configuration information such as port configuration, network information, and command configuration. This configuration file is downloaded to, or uploaded from, this area.

DFCM Protocol Specification
The DF1 protocol driver supports Master or Slave implementations of the protocol on each DF1 port. All DF1 ports are individually configurable.
Protocol Specifications
The DF1 Master/Slave Protocol driver provides extensive support for both Master and Slave implementations of the protocol. The serial port on the gateway is user-configurable to support the DF1 protocol (Master or Slave, Error Checking, Baud rate, etc).
| General Parameters |
|
| Communication parameters |
Local Station ID: 0 to 254 |
| Error Checking |
BCC and CRC |
| Miscellaneous |
Full hardware handshaking control, providing radio, smart modem and multi-drop support |
DF1 Master Protocol Specifications
The ports on the module can be individually configured as Master ports. When configured in master mode, the DFCM module is capable of reading and writing data to remote DF1 devices.
| DF1 Master Driver |
|
| DF1 Modes |
Full-Duplex - Master (Module generates commands) Half-Duplex - Polling |
| Command List |
Up to 100 commands per Master port, each fully-configurable for function, slave address, register to/from addressing and word/bit count |
| Polling of Command List |
User-configurable polling of commands, including disabled, continuous, and on change of data (write only) |
DF1 Slave Protocol Specifications
The ports on the module can be individually configured to support the Slave mode of the DF1 protocol. When in slave mode, the module can accept DF1 commands from a master to read/write data stored in the module's internal registers.
