Getting started and Instructions Step by Step 26/132
2.3.1 Slave DTM at the Root-Line (Stand-Alone Slave)
If in the network project the PROFIBUS DP Slave DTM is dropped to the
root busline:
1. Set the Station Address of the Slave device:
‣ Select Configuration > General in the navigation area.
2. Configure the Modules of the Slave:
‣ Select Configuration > Modules in the navigation area.
3. Set the module Parameters:
‣ Select Configuration > Parameter in the navigation area.
4. Set the Device Settings:
‣ Select Configuration > Device Settings in the navigation area.
Under Start of Bus Communication:
‣ Select Automatically by device or Controlled by application option.
Under Application Monitoring:
‣ Set Watchdog time.
Under Configuration Data Flag:
‣ Select Fixed Configuration or Configuration from Master option.
Important: For the option Configuration from Master the Slave device
uses the configuration, which the Master device sends via PROFIBUS to
the Slave device. The configuration steps:
- Configure Slave Modules and
- Set Module Parameters
can be used for the default configuration or are to be omitted.
But the Slave device firmware and the host application must support the
configuration mode Configuration from Master and must verify the
Module Parameters and the Module Configuration. If the Slave device
firmware and the host application do not support the configuration mode
Configuration from Master or they reject the Module Parameters and the
Module Configuration, then a cyclic communication between the Slave
device and the Master is not established.
Note: In order to transfer the configuration to the PROFIBUS DP Slave
device, download the data of the configuration parameters in the
PROFIBUS DP Slave device. See section Download Configuration on
page 100.
