<strong>Configuring</strong> the Distributed I/O (DP)<br />

3.4 Configurations for PROFIBUS-DP<br />

The following topics provide examples of configurations for PROFIBUS-DP that<br />

you can create with <strong>STEP</strong> 7.<br />

• Configuration with "Simple" (Modular or Compact) DP Slaves (Data Exchange:<br />

Slave Master)<br />

• Configuration with Intelligent DP Slaves (Data Exchange: Slave Master)<br />

• Configuration with Intelligent DP Slaves (Direct Data Exchange: Slave > I Slave)<br />

• Configuration with Two DP Master Systems (Direct Data Exchange: Slave ><br />

Master)<br />

• Configuration with Two DP Master Systems (Direct Data Exchange: Slave > I<br />

Slave)<br />

• Example of <strong>Configuring</strong> Direct Data Exchange (Lateral <strong>Communication</strong>)<br />

3.4.1 Configuration with 'Simple' (Modular or Compact) DP Slaves<br />

(Data Exchange: Slave Master)<br />

In this configuration, data exchange takes place between the DP master <strong>and</strong><br />

simple DP slaves, that is, I/O modules, by means of the DP master. The DP master<br />

polls each configured DP slave, one after the other, in the master's polling list<br />

within the DP master system <strong>and</strong> transmits the output data or receives the input<br />

data from the slaves. The I/O addresses are assigned automatically by the<br />

configuration system.<br />

This configuration is also known as a mono-master system because a single<br />

master with its associated DP slaves are connected to one physical PROFIBUS DP<br />

subnet.<br />
