™
 communication adapter for the Modicon
™
Momentum
™
 I/O product line provides a direct connection to the Probus DP 
Communication Network for the full family of Modicon Momentum I/O modules. This 
connectivity enables the Modicon Momentum I/O to be used in open architecture 
control systems with other Probus DP compatible control products, including: 
programmable controllers, industrial computers, operator control stations, drive 
systems, and other controls – to provide a exible, cost-effective solution for 
distributing I/O modules throughout a large area.
The Probus DP communication adapter is a single package that is designed to plug 
on to any of the Modicon Momentum Input/Output modules base, thus allowing the 
I/O module full access to the Probus DP Communication Network. Each Modicon 
Momentum I/O module is an individual node on the network, with its address 
user-selected on the dual rotary switch on the front of the communication adapter. 
The gure below illustrates a typical control system using Modicon Momentum I/O 
modules on the Probus DP network with programmable controllers and industrial 
computer systems.
The Probus Conguration File is required for the conguration of the Modicon 
Momentum I/O Modules on the Probus DP network. This le contain the Probus 
PNO “Identnumber” for Modicon Momentum I/O modules, and is available at  
no charge to users as a download over the Internet from the Schneider Electric  
web page.
