More Information

Overview Manuals PROFIBUS Setup Diagnostics Station Design Application
  • Couples X2X Link I/O to PROFIBUS DP
  • Provides device, module, and channel diagnostics
  • Maintains X2X communication when selected nodes are missing or unpowered

X20BC0063 is a B&R profibus dp v0 slave bus controller designed for the X20 System.

The controller is the PROFIBUS fieldbus head for an X20 I/O station and exchanges cyclic and acyclic services with a PROFIBUS master.

Before installation or replacement, verify the complete material number, the GSD package, PROFIBUS address and master configuration, 9-pin DSUB wiring, segment length and termination, X20BB80, X20PS9400 or X20PS9402, X20TB12, X2X module order, and power budget.

Availability, condition, price, and shipping time for X20BC0063 are confirmed during quotation.

Description
X20BC0063 is a B&R profibus dp v0 slave bus controller for the X20 System.

It supports fieldbus-based I/O configuration, device, module, and channel diagnostics, automatic transfer-rate detection up to 12 Mbit/s, and continued communication when individual X2X Link nodes are absent or unpowered.

Before installation or replacement, confirm the complete material number, the GSD package, PROFIBUS address and master configuration, 9-pin DSUB wiring, segment length and termination, X20BB80, X20PS9400 or X20PS9402, X20TB12, X2X module order, and power budget.

FAQS

The following is a list of questions commonly asked by our customers. Please contact us if you have a question about our process that is not answered below.
What should be saved before replacing B&R X20BC0063?
Save the PROFIBUS master project, GSD version, station address, configured X20 module order, diagnostic history, and power arrangement.
Why is B&R X20BC0063 visible on the bus but not exchanging process data?
Compare the configured and actual module order, input/output lengths, station address, GSD version, master state, and controller diagnostics.
Can B&R X20BC0063 use any 9-pin serial cable?
No. Use PROFIBUS RS485 cable and connectors with the correct pinout, shielding, topology, and termination for the selected bit rate.
How should intermittent PROFIBUS faults on B&R X20BC0063 be investigated?
Check termination at both segment ends, cable length, shield bonding, connector condition, stubs, duplicate addresses, supply stability, and master diagnostic counters.
What does it mean that B&R X20BC0063 can communicate when some X2X nodes are missing?
The controller can retain communication with the remaining reachable nodes, but the machine project must decide how missing-module diagnostics affect operation.
Which parts should be quoted with B&R X20BC0063?
Confirm X20BB80, X20PS9400 or X20PS9402, X20TB12, and the required PROFIBUS connector; these are not assumed to be included.
Can B&R X20BC0063 be replaced while retaining the old GSD without checking revisions?
Do not assume so. Compare the installed hardware revision, current GSD package, master configuration, and documented compatibility before commissioning.
