Backplane Bus Communication Velocity & Deterministic Networks
The RLM02 converts a single non-redundant PROFIBUS line into two parallel, line-redundant RS485 channels to ensure deterministic networks without data loss. Internal signal-shaping circuits process incoming serial frames to preserve backplane bus communication velocity and transmission waveform integrity. Automatic line monitoring maintains continuous bus availability, switching copper physical paths upon detecting line errors or signal attenuation. Full firmware flash compatibility ensures direct integration with standard PROFIBUS master and slave nodes across System 800xA and S800 I/O architectures.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is required to satisfy Germanischer Lloyd (GL) marine certification for the RLM02 module?
A: Marine certification under GL Categories A, B, C, and D requires the installation of an external power supply filter (ABB Part Number 3BDZ000397R1) on the incoming power feed.
Q: How does the RLM02 manage PROFIBUS signal conversion?
A: The module operates bi-directionally on the RS485 physical layer, converting one standard PROFIBUS channel into two redundant PROFIBUS RS485 lines and vice versa without protocol translation delays.
Field Installation Guidelines
- Mount the module securely on a grounded DIN rail inside a protective cabinet enclosure.
- Install the 3BDZ000397R1 power supply filter in series with the incoming 24 VDC supply lines when operating in GL-certified installations.
- Ensure both redundant PROFIBUS RS485 lines are terminated with active 120 ohm bus termination resistors at both end nodes.
- Route redundant RS485 communication cables through separate physical conduits to maintain physical path isolation against localized physical damage.
