The CIO-MLPII-PR Module is a convenient and cost-effective Profibus interface capable of providing
discrete control and monitoring of motor starters, drives, and other devices over a Profibus network.
The CIO-MLPII-PR is designed to provide the following benefits in both new and existing
installations:
§ reduced field wiring
§ greater operator efficiency
§ ease in system startup and commissioning
The CIO-MLPII-PR Profibus module can be DIN rail mounted, or mounted directly to a back panel.
The CIO-MLPII-PR’s compact size, ease of wiring and Profibus communications capability makes the
use of traditional discrete devices on Profibus cost-effective and simple.
The CIO-MLPII-PR Module is compatible with Square D’s Model MLPII overload relay. It simply
connects to the side of the MLPII and permits remote monitoring and control of the MLPII over a
Profibus network.
CONNECTIONS
1. Mount the CIO-MLPII-PR in a convenient location in a properly rated enclosure. The CIO-MLPII-
PR can be mounted to a back panel using screws or can be snapped onto DIN rail.
2. Connect the five Profibus wires to the 5-pin connector on the front of the CIO-MLPII-PR Module.
24VDC should be connected to V+ and V-. Connect the other three wires to A, B and Shield.
3. The PBus LED indicates communication is established between the CIO-MLPII-PR and the
Profibus master, and OLC indicates communication is established with the MLPII overload.
4. Connect the Profibus SUB-D connector to the Profibus network.
