Objectives
• To show integrators how easily Profibus and Modbus devices and networks can be integrated into Rockwell’s 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
– Operators are trained once– Maintenance is provided from a single
source– Engineering tools and operating
interfaces work together– Look & feel is maintainedCustomer
Satisfaction
IntegratedArchitecture One-stop-shop
One knowledge base

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 ?

Problems to resolve
• End-Users want to keep existing infrastructure
– To save costs• Avoid new CAPEX• Avoid labour to change
– To minimise risk• If it’s not broke, don’t change it
• System integrators want to use known, tested architectures
– Supplier relationships– Training of employees
• 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

Meeting the Needs
• Molex is an expert in industrial protocols– Gateways, PC cards
• 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 ControlLogixConfiguration while the PROFIBUS Scanner is online
– Possible to change the Profibus Configuration while CPU is RUN mode
• Use Molex tools or Rockwell toolsWide range of Legacy Protocols

RLL Feature
• Fully integrated into Rockwell Architecture
• Remotely configure and diagnose PROFIBUS devices
• Very important for Process Control: Maintenance don’t have to go into the plant or Ex zone

Key Benefits
• End-user or integrator can choose the software solution and the PAC supplier independently of the IO/Fieldbus requirements– Legacy devices and cabling can be kept
• Maintain initial investment• Reduce risk of changing network or devices• Use of best-of-class, instead or best-available-with-DeviceNet
– Expertise is maintained• Investment in training of personnel• Suppliers• Maintenance process, quality
• Operations controlled seamlessly through Rockwell software– Legacy device network/fieldbus transparent to user
• Easy to set up, install, manage, diagnose
