Product Description:

The Beckhoff FC3102-0000 is a dual-channel PROFIBUS DP Lightbus card from the FC Lightbus Card Series, designed for high-performance fieldbus communication via a PCI interface. With data transmission rates ranging from 9.6 kbaud to 12 Mbaud, the card supports various PROFIBUS standards, including PROFIBUS DP (standard), PROFIBUS DP-V1 (with acyclic services and alarms), DP-V2, and PROFIBUS MC (equidistant communication). This versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of automation applications.

The FC3102-0000 is equipped with two galvanically decoupled 9-pin D-sub sockets, ensuring robust, interference-free communication across its dual channels. For real-time monitoring, the card provides 2 LEDs per channel, allowing users to efficiently track the status of each communication channel, simplifying diagnostics and system management. Capable of supporting a maximum process data width of 2 x 3 kbytes for both input and output data, this card excels in handling large data sets in real-time applications. It also offers flexible synchronization by supporting different polling rates for slaves across the two channels, ensuring optimized data flow for each connected device in the network.

The FC3102-0000 includes freely configurable error management for each bus user, enhancing system reliability and improving fault detection. Additionally, the card simplifies setup through automatic reading of the bus configuration and seamless assignment of GSE (General Station Description) files, making the installation process more efficient. Operating in a temperature range of 0 to +55°C, the card is built for standard industrial environments. With compact dimensions of 106 mm x 175 mm, it easily fits into standard PCI slots. The UL and CE approvals certify that the card meets international safety and performance standards. Offering powerful parameter and diagnostics interfaces, the FC3102-0000 ensures precise control, efficient communication, and robust error management, making it an ideal solution for complex PROFIBUS networks in industrial automation systems.
