This manual explains how to use the Hilscher RIF 1769-DPM communication module to connect Allen‑Bradley CompactLogix PLCs with Siemens PROFIBUS ET200M devices.
About this manual
The document describes the Hilscher RIF 1769-DPM communication module, which adds a PROFIBUS DP master interface to Rockwell Allen‑Bradley CompactLogix/MicroLogix PLCs. It outlines the hardware components required and the overall system architecture for linking the PLC to a Siemens ET200M DP slave.
Step‑by‑step configuration procedures are provided using Hilscher SYCON.net software and Rockwell RSLogix 5000. The guide covers creating a PROFIBUS network, importing GSD files, setting station addresses, adjusting watchdog timers, and mapping I/O data lengths, followed by downloading the parameters to the module and performing online diagnostics. This manual is written in Chinese.

Frequently asked questions
What hardware is required for the RIF 1769-DPM communication setup?
You need the RIF 1769-DPM module, a CompactLogix 1769‑L35E CPU with power and terminal modules, a Siemens IM153‑1 ET200M slave, Siemens SM321 and SM322 I/O modules, an Ethernet/RS232 PC, PROFIBUS cable and connectors, Ethernet cable, and RS232 cables for configuration.
How are the input and output data lengths set in RSLogix 5000 for the RIF 1769-DPM?
In the module properties, set the Input size to 45 bytes and the Output size to 9 bytes to match the 16‑point DI and DO configuration of the connected ET200M slave.
