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)
nRoof mounted devices in tank farms
nDirty and humid environments
nBarrier for non-galvanic isolated equipment
nLarge star/tree structured networks
nOutdoor applications with device and cable stress
2.4 Additional Benefits
nHot slave insertion and removal during operation
nShort circuit protection on each Channel
nCompact and robust construction
nStatus and error display (per Channel)
nSuitable for all DP cables
nConveniently arranged networks
nEasy extendable installations
nOn-board DB9 female connector on each channel for maintenance activities
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.

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.
