I need to communicate two networks, the one with INTERBUS-S and other with PROFIBUS DP, for which I need a converter protocols, where I can find hadware and software to make this application ?, or Is there some different alternative to make this work?

 

You did not really give much information. Are you using a PLC? If so whose? Are you using a PC?

Try "http://www.prosoft-technology.com/":http://www.prosoft-technology.com/ as a starting point.

Aren't both buses IEC standard field buses anyway !!!! Hmmm standards that really aren't standards.

Both INTERBUS-S and PROFIBUS DP networks can expose the data through OPC Servers.

The Interbus OPC Server (including PC interface card) can be obtained from Phoenix Contact.
The PROFIBUS DP OPC Server (including PC interface card)can be obtained from companies such as Hilscher, Softing, Trebing&Himstedt, Siemens,...

The missing link to data bridge the two (or more) OPC Servers is the ICONICS DataWorX32 module.

Not sure of your application, but you might find what you need at:

I've used several of SST's interface cards in the past. Very good quality and reliable, also good documentation and easy to set up.

Good luck!

 

Angel, you will probably find the converter that you need in this direction: "http://www.hilscher.com/":http://www.hilscher.com/

(Angel, probablemente encontraras el convertidor que necesitas en esta
direccion: "http://www.hilscher.com/":http://www.hilscher.com/ )

 

I assume that you have two networks, each with their own network master? In case you only need to transfer a few bits of information: buy an Interbus digital I/O block, buy a DP digital I/O block, and connect the outputs of the first to the inputs of the second (and vice-versa).

This is probably the easiest and also cheapest solution. (within its limitations, of course).
