Hi experts,
Please give me inputs on how to design a microcontroller based device as a slave to an existing Profibus-DP system.
I have a MP377 (WinAC MP, Profibus-DP Master) +ET200S system, now I'd like to add a self-designed microcontroller based device in the profibus so the MP377 can give instructions to the microcotroller.
I know the hardware of profibus is RS485, does it mean if I have a RS485-RS232 converter connected to my controller then I can program this controller to communicate to the profibus? If so, any examples of the programming would be greately appreciated.
Best regards,
