Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What type of devices can VE4022 communicate with?
A1: It interfaces with discrete actuators, sensors, MCCs, and remote I/O that support Profibus DP.
Q2: Is redundancy supported?
A2: Yes. For redundancy, the VE4038 version includes two interface cards and a redundant terminal block.
Q3: How many DP slaves can the VE4022 handle?
A3: It can support up to 64 DP slave devices per segment.
Q4: Can I mix Profibus DP with other protocols in DeltaV?
A4: Yes. DeltaV allows mixing of Profibus DP, DeviceNet, HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus, and more.
Q5: Does VE4022 require external converters?
A5: No. It communicates natively with DeltaV controllers without any intermediate devices.
Q6: Can I replace a failed card without shutting down the system?
A6: Yes, in safe areas, cards can be replaced under power.
Q7: What is the typical switchover time in redundant mode?
A7: Less than 100 milliseconds.
Q8: How does the card handle GSD files?
A8: GSD files can be imported directly into the DeltaV system for easy device configuration.
Q9: What cabling does it require?
A9: Twisted-pair shielded copper cable (standard RS485).
Q10: What kind of diagnostic data does it support?
A10: Station-related, module-related, and channel-related diagnostics.
