On Siemens Variable Speed Drives and Soft Starters, which "interphase" cards are recommended for communication from Profibus DP to Modbus RTU?

You can use our ProLinx 4104-MCM-PDPM module. This module will provide a Modbus port, and a ProfibusDP Master port which can communicate with your drives.

Information on this product can be found at http://www.prolinxgateways.com

Please feel free to call me with any questions you may have.

Some of the drives offer an add-on card to give Modbus serial communications. Otherwise, the idea of the Prolinx bridge would be good. I think I've seen other Modbus to ProfibusDP gateways and devices in the past.
