PROFIsafe Library

Overview:

The PROFIBUS PROFIsafe library for slave devices provides the developer of the fieldbus device access to all features and services defined in the profile Version 1.3.

Technical Data:

parameterization check
configuration check
diagnosis interface
redundancy
supports all profile data types
ANSI-C
TUEV-verification of safety driver
documented source code
example code
used μC

Technology:

Concerning the variety of size of the Protocol Data Unit (PDU), the Cyclic Redundancy check (CRC) is configurable 16-/32-bit. The usage of tables will make the calculation of the CRC very efficient. Furthermore a lot of macros will help the developer to integrate the driver into his application.
