profibus vs hardwired limit switches
profibus vs hardwired limit switches
(OP)
We are supplying an auma actuator and the client has said they want to use profibus. They have came back and said that for open and closed position a limit switch is required. Am I not right in saying that with profibus hardwired limit switches are not applicable? or would you still want to hardwire?
Thanks
Thanks

yes, I would say you are ot correct. Profibus is simply a communications 'language' to tell something to do something. It has nothing to do with absolute open or closed position. for that you need some kind of absolute feedback; either an absolute encoder of some kind or limit sw;s as your customer is telling you.
