Objectives
To show integrators how easily Profibus and Modbus devices and networks can be integrated into Rockwells Integrated Architecture To discuss the meaning, and the benefits, of Integrated Architecture
To end-users To system integrators

To specify the issues facing integrators of legacy protocol devices And to list the ways in which Molex and Rockwell together can overcome any problems

Integrated Architecture
Integrated means that the end-user sees one system
Integrated Architecture One-stop-shop Operators are trained once Maintenance is provided from a single source Engineering tools and operating interfaces work together Look & feel is maintained

Customer Satisfaction

One knowledge base

Copyright 2007 Rockwell Automation, Inc. All rights reserved.

Customer Requirements
Potential buyers of Rockwell software, Automation and Control hardware, and Networks, also want to include other devices
How do they install, communicate and manage the devices, and the data they produce ? How do they support the legacy protocols that often come with them ?

Legacy Protocols

Use best or Specialist Devices

Customer Satisfaction

Maintain Existing Infrastructure

Problems to resolve
End-Users want to keep existing infrastructure
To save costs Avoid new CAPEX Avoid labour to change To minimise risk If its not broke, dont change it Support

System integrators want to use known, tested architectures

Supplier relationships Training of employees

Installation

Some solutions are only available with a limited protocol range Some protocols are mandated or adopted as standards by industry, trade groups, safety or advisory bodies Some protocols become de facto standards by their success

Ubiquitous Rockwell Software

Wide range of manufacturers

Meeting the Needs

Molex is an expert in industrial protocols
Gateways, PC cards
Diagnostics

Rockwell asked Molex to provide Profibus and Modbus solutions Molex integrated the device networks into Rockwell Architecture
Configuration and diagnostic through AB RSLinx (RLL) or local Serial port Possible to change the ControlLogix Configuration while the PROFIBUS Scanner is online Possible to change the Profibus Configuration while CPU is RUN mode

Configuration

RLL integration

Wide range of Legacy Protocols

Use Molex tools or Rockwell tools
