1 EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
Vivace VRP10 family of repeaters was developed for use in PROFIBUS-PA networks, allowing the
extension of these networks. VRP10-O allows the interface between IEC61158-2 standard bus and optical
fiber.
VRP10-O provides transmission via optical fiber with advantages such as electrical noise immunity,
reaching long distances in control systems topologies and the addition of ability to work with different ground
references.
It is powered by an external source of 24 Vdc. Connections, including power, grounding and PROFIBUS-
PA network are available via electrical terminals.
50/125 or 62.5 micrometers optical fiber cables with ST connectors can be used in single or dual
multimode.
Three LEDs indicate the operating status and possible functional problems, as shown below.
Figure 1.1 - VRP10-O 2D front and side view drawing.
1.1. IDENTIFICATION
VRP10-O has an identification label on the
front face, specifying the model, manufacturer,
electrical connections and indicative LEDs as
shown on figure 1.1. It also has a side printed
diagram with all connections available and its
serial number.
PROFIBUS-PA connection indication using
optical fiber is also indicated on this label.

1.2. TECHNICAL AND PHYSICAL SPECIFICATIONS
The main technical and physical characteristics of VRP10-O are listed below. They are important
references that must be analyzed before installation and use into control system, especially regard to power
supply, temperature and mechanical connection.
Table1.1 - VRP10-O technical specification.
*only for DP/PA couplers with configurable slot time (eg. Siemens).

1.3. INSTALLATION
VRP10-O repeaters are easy to install and allow users to extend a PROFIBUS-PA segment up to 4 km
(2.5 mi). It can also be connected to different ground references, bringing an unprecedented advantage
once one of the major problems in digital network on the factory floor are just noise and current flowing
through the ground conductor due to ground differential between distant areas.
The figure below illustrates an application assembly between remote areas.
Occasionally, there might be adjustments in the PROFIBUS-DP master configuration, when
communication is not established successfully. The solution is setting TSL (time slot) and TTR (Token
Rotation Time). TSL is given in bit times and means the time PROFIBUS-DP master will wait for a slave
response before re-sending a frame or even send a new frame. TTR is given in bit times and is usually
calculated by the configuration tools. It is the time to pass the token across the network and return to its
original master. When working with multiple masters this includes the total time for each master to complete
its I/O cycle, pass the token to the next master and get token back to the original master. Some factors
directly influence the TTR: baud rate, number of slaves with cyclic data exchange, total number of I/O during
data exchange and quantity of masters.
It is possible to set several optical segments in cascade (a combination cable of PROFIBUS-PA + fiber
optics + PROFIBUS-PA cable). Eventually it might be necessary to adjust TSL and TTR parameters on
cyclic DP master configuration, as explained above. Figure below illustrates an application assembly
between remote areas.

STEP BY STEP INSTALLATION:
1) Fix the two repeaters in their respective control panel DIN rails.
2) Remove protective cover from optical channels.
3) Connect modules using standard ST optical fiber.
4) Connect grounding.
5) Connect PROFIBUS-PA channel.
6) Connect 24 Vdc power supply.
7) Supply a impedance source to PROFIBUS-PA segment.

Make sure the voltage source that feeds the impedance source has a current capacity for all PA
segment with the following minimum specifications: 24 Vdc ± 10%; Ripple < 50 mV p-p.
Ensure that the optical plug faces are free of dirt or other contamination source.
Make sure that an optical input is connected to an optical output (crossover connection) and that
the connector is firmly attached to the repeater socket.
Ensure there is enough strain relief in fiber optic cable and the minimum bending radius have been
met.
Keep repeaters sockets protected by with protective plugs when they out of use.
Always respect the maximum length specified in Chapter 1.2.

2 CONFIGURATION
2.1. CONFIGURATION DETAILS AND INDICATIVE LEDS
VRP10-O is dedicated to the conversion of signals H1 (IEC61158-2) with fixed 31.25 kbits/s rate, so
there is no additional configuration needed for it. For convenience, there are three indicative LEDs.
Table 2.1 - VRP10-O indicative LEDs.
2.2. CAPACITIVE GROUNDING
VRP10-O also allows user to do the capacitive ground. With this possibility, user can connect a
capacitor (10 nF / 1500 V DC, internal to the repeater) to the ground.
Therefore, it is necessary to change the internal jumper position. The jumper is located in the
board just below the optical fiber plugs as shown in the figure below. Even in this condition, user
must connect the external ground reference in the terminal 8.
Figure 2.1 - Enabling the capacitive grounding.
