2 Product Description
2.1 General
The PROFIBUS MultiRepeater A5 is advanced, flexible and robust network components
for PROFIBUS DP installations, to implement long multi-device spur lines and backbone
structures with star/tree segments.
nPROFIBUS DP is a high speed communication bus that has to comply with strict rules
concerning spur lines, because of possible reflections that could lead to communica-
tion disturbances. If spur lines or star segments are required, costly investments in
repeaters have to be done.
nA innovative component for such applications is the PROFIBUS MultiRepeater A5.
These are perfect economic solutions to implement reliable spur lines in high speed
DP networks. They have the functionality of 5 galvanic isolated transparent repeaters.
This allows network structures with extended spur lines that individually can handle a
maximum of 31 devices and a length equal to the main bus. The MultiRepeater
refresh a received message on one Channel and transfer it to all the other Channels
(chicken foot topology).
nBecause the PROFIBUS MultiRepeater A5 creates isolated segments, the device can
now be removed and added during operation. Also electrical bus problems and EMC
disturbances in a spur do not spread to the other segments. The intelligent logic and
isolation circuits of the MultiRepeaters do not change the bit width. This means the
MultiRepeaters do not have limitations in serial placement. The logic also detects the
transmission speed automatically.
nTo assist the installation work, termination is integrated and can be switched on/off.
The grounding concept is also selectable: direct or capacitive grounding. The Multi-
Repeaters are powered by a 10 to 32 DC Voltage (110/230V AC versions are also
available). For troubleshooting, maintenance and commissioning the MultiRepeaters
are equipped with a display on the outside, which indicate the status of each Channel
(Data and Error).

2.3 Application areas
nDynamic spur lines to actuators, flow meters and pH analyzers
nRemovable drives and motors
nPull/Plug motor control centres (drawers)

nShort circuit protection on each Channel
nCompact and robust construction
nStatus and error display (per Channel)
nSuitable for all DP cables

nCost Savings
Because of the isolation and intelligence the PROFIBUS-Multi-Repeater provides, it can
be used as a barrier for electrically sensitive segments. This keeps the backbone and
other Channels clean.
2.5 Channel Structure
Each channel is electrically isolated and internally connected to the transparent intelligent
backbone. The termination is switchable and powered by the MultiRepeater. The
shielding of the PROFIBUS cable can be directly grounded or indirectly grounded.

Channel Structure
HB153 | PBR | 920-1CA50 | en | 19-09 9

2.6 Grounding System
The PROFIBUS MultiRepeater can be grounded by 3 methods:
nDirect grounding on the Ground Rail
nIndirect grounding (through a capacitor)
nCombination of direct and indirect
The power supply must be grounded directly on the Ground Rail. The shielding of the
PROFIBUS cables can be directly or indirectly grounded. If you do not want to ground all
or some cables to the common ground, i.e. compensating current, the cable shielding
must be connected to pin "I" which stands for Indirect grounding. A capacitor with a par-
allel high value resistor will separate the 2 potentials, ensuring protection of the signal
against non-DC disturbances. If by accident on 1 channel the Direct Grounding is con-
nected with the Indirect Grounding, the connection to the Direct Grounding bypasses the
capacitor in the Indirect Ground connection. The current on the shield will flow to Direct
Ground.
2.7 Cable lengths for PROFIBUS DP
The cables on the channels and the main channel must comply with the PROFIBUS DP
cable specifications for RS485.

3 Installation Instructions
3.1 Location
The PROFIBUS MultiRepeater A5 can be installed everywhere in a non-hazardous area
that complies with IP 65 (DIN 40 050) and the specified temperature range of -40 ... +75°
Celsius.
3.2 Position
Der PROFIBUS MultiRepeater A5 can be installed in every position, but it is recom-
mended to install it with the cable glands pointing down to create a more reliable protec-
tion against moist and dust (water compartment and glands). In this position it is also
easier to read the status display.
3.3 Mounting
The PROFIBUS MultiRepeater has 4 mounting holes for 4 ... 5 mm screws. To reach the
holes on position 1 and 2, the top lid has to be removed.
It is recommended to mount the MultiRepeater A5 with at least 4 suitable screws/bolts in
position 1, 2, 3 and 4. Be careful with the flat cable that connects the lid with the PCB.

3.4 Power Supply
The 4-pin screw type power connector is located on the bottom left of the PCB:
1 Power LEDs
3 Power connector
The power supply must comply with the following specifications:
nVoltage: 10 - 32V DC
nCurrent: min. 130 mA
nWire diameter: < 2.5 mm2
nCable thickness: 5 to 10 mm
To connect the 24V supply to the 4-pin screw-type terminal, proceed as follows:
1. Strip the insulation from the cable or the conductors for the 24V power supply.
2. Secure the crimp terminals in the screw-type terminal.
There is a grounding point that can be used.
To connect the power supply, you need a 3 mm screwdriver.
If the power is switched on it can be diagnosed by the following indicators on the PCB:
nAll the LEDs should be shortly blinking.
nThe "READY" LED is ON or Blinking
nThe Power LEDs are ON (5V, 3V3 and 1V8).
It is recommended to use a power supply with a ground lead (3-wire).
3.5 Backbone
Connect the DP backbone cable to the bottom connector of the Main-Channel. If the Mul-
tiRepeater is not the last device on the bus segment, connect the Bus-Out cable to the
top connector of the Main-Channel.

3.7 Termination
The termination of the main channel has been set to OFF by default. If the MultiRepeater
is the last/first device on the segment, the termination must be set to ON.
The termination of the channels have been set to ON by default, because it is assumed
that the new segment is started at the MultiRepeater.

and make sure it is powered continuously.
3.8 Baudrate switch
The PROFIBUS MultiRepeater A5 recognizes the transmission speed by default. If it is
required that the MultiRepeater is locked to a certain transmission speed, the baudrate
switch should be set to the required value.

5 Glossary
Address Unique number of a device connected to the network. With PROFIBUS this can be 0 to 126.
127 is a broadcast address.
Analyzer Software tool to observe the protocol traffic. Combi-Analyzers can also inspect the signal
quality. Other term: Bus Monitor
Backbone The primary bus cable. Most of the time only the control systems, MultiRepeaters and fiber
optic couplers are connected to this cable. The field devices are connected behind the MultiRe-
peaters and fiber optic couplers.
Bit Time (Tbit) The bit time Tbit is the time, which elapses during the transmission of one bit. It depends on the
baudrate and is calculated as follows Tbit = 1 (bit) / baudrate (bps).
Examples:
12 Mbps ® Tbit = 83 ns
1,5 Mbps ® Tbit = 667 ns
Busparameters Settings that define the timing behaviour on the bus. They are defined in the master. Examples:
Tslot, MaxTSDR.
C Capacitance
