2 Product properties
The ibaCom-L2B-x-8 cards are communication cards which are used to connect stan-
dard PC PROFIBUS master devices such as Simatic CPUs and CPs. The ibaCom-
L2B-x-8 boards are the successors of the L2B x-8-F PROFIBUS boards.
As far as this description does not refer explicitly to an ibaCom-L2B-4-8 or ibaCom-
L2B-8-8, the two boards are referred to as ibaL2B boards or cards.
The ibaL2B card is, unlike most iba communication interfaces, a copper based inter-
face which holds 4 or 8 so called Profibus DP slaves. The L2B features the following
functionality.
Compliant PCI V2.2 (5 V) board, needs one PCI-slot, Plug & Play functionality
1 Mbyte of PCI dual port ram for PC access
Standard PROFIBUS DP slave processors (SPC3)
No configuration jumpers or switches – fully software controlled
Firmware control in the PC without uninstalling the card
Dynamic reassigning of interrupt sources and interrupt generation (board and driver
synchronization)
Up to 4 ibaL2B boards can run in the same PC at the same time (board ids #0..#3)
4 DP slaves on one PROFIBUS line (ibaL2B-4-8) or 2x4 DP slaves on 2 PROFI-
BUS DP lines (ibaL2B-8-8-PCI)
Each PROFIBUS-link has its own processor which controls and manages the four
slave-processors.
ibaL2B supports DP multi master mode that means, that on one PROFIBUS line
several masters can be present each controlling their corresponding slaves (one
master for one slave only !)
For each slave (each slave represents an iba module which consists of 32 analog
plus 32 binary signals) the following telegram modes can be chosen:
Integer
Real
S7-Real (Note in this mode there are only 28 Real values instead of the 32 nor-
mally found)
QDA-Flatness (special mode for connection to Siemens flatness measurement
systems).
S7-Request

Manual ibaCom-L2B-x-8
8 Issue 3.2
Each slave may send and receive data simultaneously (same telegram mode for
both directions)
LEDs for each PROFIBUS-line for CPU active (green), PROFIBUS-line o.k. (yel-
low), internal error (red)
7-segment display for board id and synchronization status
Baud rates up to 12 Mbaud
Automatic baud rate detection
Profibus termination resistors for each PROFIBUS-line (switch)
100% compatibility to its predecessors on the PROFIBUS side (GSD data)

5.1 Interfaces and Indicators Found on Device Front at Top
5.1.1 Device LEDs
Run, Link and Error LEDs indicate the operational state of the L2B channels. The fol-
lowing table describes the states in which you may find the LEDs and their respective
meanings. On power on all LEDs are on for a few seconds to prove their proper func-
tion.
LED Status Indication
Run (green) blinking
off
power is on and the channel is functioning properly
controller stopped
Link (orange) on

telegrams received/sent on this channel
no telegrams transmitted;
Err (red) on

5.1.2 7-Segment Display
The 7-segment display shows the following information:
Board ID (ranging from 0...3) - after board was initialized
The decimal point in the display indicates whether the
board is working as interrupt master / internal (dot is on) or
board is working as interrupt master / external (dot is blinking) or
board is working as interrupt slave (dot is off)
Note
External synchronization is not supported for PROFIBUS because it is not a synchro-
nized bus.
5.1.3 PROFIBUS Interface on ibaL2B-4-8
The ibaL2B-4-8-PCI connects the 4 L2B DP-slaves to one PROFIBUS DP-line.
5.1.4 PROFIBUS Interface on ibaL2B-8-8
The ibaL2B-8-8 connects the 2x4 L2B DP-slaves to two PROFIBUS DP-lines.
Upper PROFIBUS-connector “Channel A”
Lower PROFIBUS-connector “Channel B”
5.1.5 PROFIBUS Multimaster Mode
Each slave on the ibaL2B board can be assigned to be controlled by its individual mas-
ter. This means that on one DP bus several masters may be active, each controlling his
slave(s).
Note
It is not allowed to assign more that one master to a slave.
5.1.6 Activate / Deactivate PROFIBUS Bus Terminal Resistors
For each PROFIBUS line the line termination resistor can be activated or deactivated.
This allows the use of standard SUBD-9 connectors for connecting the PROFIBUS in-
stead using special connectors with included resistor termination networks.
You’ll find the switches for the termination resistors on the assembly side of the board
between front plate and piggy-back board.
Switch to the left side: Resistor off (disabled)
Switch to the right side: Resistor on (enabled)
Note
Please make sure, that the internal termination does not collide with an eventual exter-
nal termination (e. g. within the switch).
