The G3PB option card adds Profibus DP connectivity to any G3 series HMI. This allows a high speed exchange of blocks of data, at data rates up to 12 MBaud, between the hosting G3 and a Master PLC on a Profibus network. The DP suffix refers to "Decentralized Periphery", which is used to describe distributed I/O devices connected via a fast serial data link with a central controller. The card is easily installed by removing the rear cover of your G3 operator interface, attaching the card using three screws and connecting a single cable. Storage temperature range: -20 to 80 degrees C.
