Answer / er.shah rahul
Basically,smart transmitters are used for sensing the
analog signal then,smart transmitter digitalized it & give
it range& adjustment.it corrects it by many factor.it is
used only in non hazardous area.this is continuous sensing.
apart from that,PROFIBUS DP is decentralised periphery
used in non-hazardous area & PROFIBUS PA is process
automation used in hazardous area.They is joined through
coupler.PLC Periodically receives data as a packet.

Answer / rathina
Basically trouble shooting point of view, multimeter if
enough to trouble shoot the SMART Transmitter. but Profibus
we need some kind of PLC loaded PC's

Answer / dibyendu das
PLC DCS
 Fast logic scan (approx. 10ms) is required to perform
motor or motion control.
 Control loops require deterministic scan execution.
perform motor or motion control at a speed of 100 to 500 ms
 Redundancy may not be cost justified.
 System redundancy is often required.
 System can be taken offline to make configuration.
 Online configuration changes often required changes.
 Analog Control: Simple PID only.
 Analog Control: Simple to advanced PID control up to
Advanced Process Control.
 Diagnostics to tell you when something is broken.
 Asset Management alerts you to what might break before
it does.

SMART Stands for Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology which is basically a technology and whereas Profibus DP/PA are transmission protocols. Like HART, Foundation Fieldbus etc.

I am having a Phoenix digital to modbus converter. The o/p of the same is connected to flow computer FB407. But the digital signals are updated only after one minute in the flow computer. what may be the cause of delay in communication? Flow computer is having a scanning period of less than 1 sec.
