PROFIBUS Interfaces

Configure Page for: Print PDF Rich Text
  • PXI and PCI 1-port interfaces for PROFIBUS DP industrial networks
  • LabVIEW Express VI API for reading and writing network tags with one VI
  • Included Configurator utility for setting up PROFIBUS networks
  • Connect LabVIEW and LabVIEW Real-Time systems as masters or slaves on PROFIBUS networks

These PROFIBUS PCI and PXI one-port interfaces connect PC-based controllers to PROFIBUS industrial networks as powerful masters or slaves. NI PROFIBUS interfaces include an NI LabVIEW driver for human machine interface (HMI) and SCADA applications. You can perform PROFIBUS device automated test using these interfaces.

With LabVIEW Real-Time support, you can add PXI or PC systems as slave or master nodes to a PROFIBUS industrial network. Featuring more than 20 million installed nodes, PROFIBUS is one of the leading industrial networks for reliably connecting programmable logic controllers (PLCs), I/O, sensors, and drives over long distances in industrial environments.
