What is Profibus-DP in layman's terms?

Missed our most recent videos? Watch them here:

Today Profibus-DP is one of the most commonly used networks in industrial automation. Profibus stands for “Process Field Bus” and “DP” sands for “Decentralized Peripherals”. In this video we’re going to learn all about Profibus-DP and what exactly it decentralizes.

Using Profibus-DP, instead of wiring each individual sensor, actuator or other facility to the PLC individually, we can install a set of “remote I/Os” next to these facilities in the field area and then transfer the data to the control area using a single RS-485 cable. This can decrease the cost of wiring dramatically and on the top of that, since the data transmission method here is “digital”, industrial environment noise has less of an impact on data, so data communication between the control and field areas will be more robust.

I feel these should be within the monthly subscription as well other than me coming to find them here. I hope you do videos on nesting and the use of FBs and FCs. I now understand PLCs much better with your videos. Thanks

very good video. truly explains the concept in such a manner that even a layman can follow it easily. keep it up...looking forward to more such videos

[ardentdfender]

Very very helpful, I never new that what it means and how it’s wired. Yet I kept hearing the name been mentioned. Now I understand Profibus.

[berairelnour]

It is the best place that i find what i need, very good videos they made every thing clear to me. Thanks a lot.

[devudupatnala]

your videos are very nice, the way you explains very good, keep going thank you for RealPars.... waiting for more videos.

[inzamamulhaq]

Now cleared about Profibus DP. Great Explanation. Thanks

[suchayanmondal]

Thank you Real Pars. That's all I wanted to say. 💓

[bruskqadir]

a very useful source for learning PLC and automation. thanks

[kargarisaac]

Great! Thank you :) This is the best videos about PLC learning.

[genarolima]

Very good video. Thank you!! I really understood the concept it.

[TechguyArup]

Best elaborated videos in the web world ❤🎉

[zaurasadov]

Explanation is a simple and supportive..Thanks!
