Hi there,

I could not read the whole question, but gather that you need to get information from a Profibus slave from your Honeywell PLC. In any case you will need a Profibus master in order to communicate with the slave. Either you get a Profibus master communication card for the PLC or get a gateway. I do not know what fieldbus that your PLC supports, but please go to:

and select, if possible, if there is a fieldbus that matches the one on the PLC.

or send me an email:
