General Overview
Automating integration for Schneider Electric (SE) Modicon processors and maximizing ease of use are the hallmark design criteria behind the new ProLinx SE line of communication gateways. The first SE gateway, the 5204SE-MNETPDPMV1 Modbus TCP/IP to PROFIBUS DP-V1 Master gateway, easily turns a Modicon M340 or Quantum Programmable Automation Controller (PAC) into a PROFIBUS DP-V1 Master. The new Application Communication Logic functions built into ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) automatically generate all the Unity Pro data types, variables, and logic required for the processor to perform PROFIBUS DP-V1 cyclic and acyclic communication. PCB automatically generates customized export files based on the gateway's PROFIBUS DP network configuration. You can import these files into Unity Pro version 4 software without modification, eliminating the need to write additional communication message logic. Automatically generated Derived Function Block logic also provides advanced PROFIBUS DP-V1 acyclic message pass-through capability. Acyclic messaging allows the processor to request extended slave data and diagnostics, as well as access slave-specific special functions. If you change the configuration of your PROFIBUS DP network in ProSoft Configuration Builder, you can easily export new logic files, and then import them into an existing project.

2.2
Architecture
The following diagram shows an example network that connects a Personal Computer (PC) and a Modicon M340 or Quantum Programmable Automation Controller (PAC) to a ProLinx 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 gateway.
You configure the gateway using ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) software through an Ethernet connection. The gateway also uses its Ethernet port to support the Modbus TCP/IP protocol, allowing it to communicate with the Modicon processor, as well as other Modbus TCP/IP devices. You can also use the Ethernet connection to manage your PROFIBUS network slaves using ProSoft Technology Field Device Tool/Communications Device Type Manager (FDT/comDTM) drivers for popular plant asset management software, such as PACTware and Endress+Hauser FieldCare. For more information on FDT/comDTM drivers for the gateway, please refer to the ProLinx PDPMV1 Protocol Manual, on the ProLinx Solutions CD-ROM. The gateway's PROFIBUS port allows it to act as a PROFIBUS DP-V1 Master. The special Application Communication Logic functions built into PCB create all the Unity Pro Derived Data Types (DDTs), Variables, and Derived Function Blocks (DFBs) needed by the Modicon processor to be able to send Modbus TCP/IP messages and have those messages turned into PROFIBUS DP-V1 cyclic I/O and acyclic mailbox messages (called telegrams in the PROFIBUS protocol). The gateway can also communicate with PROFIBUS PA slaves though a third-party PROFIBUS DP-to-PA Link Coupler device (not supplied by ProSoft Technology). The gateway has an RS-232 serial port. ProSoft Configuration Builder can use this port to view the gateway's diagnostics and troubleshooting menus. You can also use the serial port to upgrade the gateway's firmware.

2.3
Data Flow Through the Gateway

The internal database is central to the functionality of the gateway. This database is shared between all the ports on the gateway and is used as a conduit to pass information from one device on one network to one or more devices on either network supported by the gateway. This permits data from devices on one communication port or network to be viewed and controlled by devices on another port or network. In addition to data from the Master port, status and error information generated by the gateway can also be mapped into the internal database. This special SE implementation of the 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 gateway uses the gateway database to store PROFIBUS DP cyclic input and output data. This means this PROFIBUS cyclic data will be available to the MNET Client (Master) and server (slave) drivers for use on a Modbus TCP/IP network. The SE version of the MNET server has also been programmed to "Pass-Through" special PROFIBUS DP-V1 acyclic mailbox message commands from the Modbus TCP/IP server directly to the PDPMV1 PROFIBUS DP-V1 Master driver for transmission on the PROFIBUS network. This pass-through capability allows a Modicon processor using its native Modbus TCP/IP protocol to communicate directly with PROFIBUS DP-V1 slaves and receive their responses, if any. Pass-through functions bypass the gateway database, going from Modicon processor to SE MNET server to PDPMV1 Master to PROFIBUS DP slaves and back.
Note: The normal MNET server driver will accept and respond normally to remote Modbus TCP/IP Client requests to read or write data to any address in the gateway's internal database. However, this special SE implementation of the MNET server is slightly different. ProSoft Technology, Inc. January 28, 2011 Page 13 of 245
The SE MNET server will accept and respond to read requests from Modbus TCP/IP Clients in the same way as the normal MNET server. However, for write requests, the SE MNET server will accept and respond normally only if the address or addresses to be written fall in the gateway database area designated for PROFIBUS Cyclic Output Data. This area is internal addresses 1000 through 1767, which have corresponding virtual Modbus addresses of 41001 through 41768 (fivedigit addressing) or 401001 through 401768 (six-digit addressing), as shown in the preceding data flow diagram. Any write requests received by the special SE MNET server that are outside this specific data address range will be rejected by the SE server and an exception response containing Exception Code "02 ILLEGAL DATA ADDRESS" will be returned to the requesting Client. This special modification has been done to preserve the integrity of PROFIBUS Input Data by preventing external Modbus TCP/IP Clients from writing to and thereby corrupting data in this critical area, while allowing any Modbus TCP/IP Client to send data to PROFIBUS slaves by writing it to the PROFIBUS Output Data area.

2.4
PROFIBUS DP Pass-Through Data Flow

The Application Communication Logic functions built into the latest version of ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) will automatically create all the Derived Data Types (DDTs), Variables, and Derived Function Blocks (DFBs) required by the Modicon processor to allow it to act as a PROFIBUS DP-V1 Master for acyclic mailbox message communication. PCB uses the PROFIBUS DP Master configuration to create two files that may be imported into Unity Pro version 4.0 (or higher) to create these data structures and process logic. PROFIBUS DP-V1 acyclic communication goes beyond normal cyclic I/O data transfers by adding the capability to directly access each PROFIBUS network slave. The types of acyclic data available varies from slave to slave but generally include such data as alarm and status information, extended diagnostic information, extended process data information, and device-specific special commands. The following illustration shows the basics of acyclic mailbox message data flow from a Modicon processor, through the two gateway drivers, out to PROFIBUS slaves, with responses (if any) returned to the Modicon.
Page 15 of 245
The DFBs create Modbus TCP/IP Client (Master) commands, which are transmitted to the ProLinx MNET server (slave) driver. The MNET server recognizes these special Modbus TCP/IP commands as PROFIBUS DP Acyclic mailbox messages, strips out the PROFIBUS DP-V1 acyclic mailbox message parameters contained in the Modbus TCP/IP message, and passes those PROFIBUS message parameters through to the ProLinx PDPMV1 Master driver for transmission to the PROFIBUS slave or slaves indicated in the message. Any response message returned by the a slave to the PDPMV1 Master will be automatically repackaged as a Modbus TCP/IP message and returned to the Modicon processor, where the imported DFBs will process it. This process allows a Modicon processor, using its native Modbus TCP/IP communication ability, to act as a PROFIBUS DP-V1 Master on a PROFIBUS network. By using a third-party PROFIBUS DP to PROFIBUS PA Link Coupler (not supplied by ProSoft Technology), you can extend these PROFIBUS capabilities even further and communicate with PROFIBUS PA slaves.

2.5
Cyclic Polling and Acyclic Messaging Control Logic

The Application Communication Logic functions of ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) automatically create Variables, DDTs and DFBs that have been customized to match the PROFIBUS part of your PCB application. These automatically created structures and logic give you all the basic building blocks you need to create an effective Modbus TCP/IP to PROFIBUS DP communication application. To complete your PROFIBUS communication application, all you will need to do is to create your own customized control and sequencing logic to call the PCBgenerated DFBs in a logical, controlled manner. It will be your sequencing logic that will decide when to call for PROFIBUS cyclic I/O data, status, and diagnostic updates. Your logic will also decide if and when to trigger any acyclic messages you may need to send. To help you create your control and sequencing logic, here are a few principles to keep in mind. 1 Once you have successfully created and downloaded your PROFIBUS configuration to the 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 gateway, the PROFIBUS DPV1 Master driver will automatically begin and maintain normal PROFIBUS cyclic I/O communications. PROFIBUS cyclic inputs and outputs will constantly be updated on the PROFIBUS network with no action being required from the processor. This means that PROFIBUS cyclic data transfers are asynchronous and separate from whatever communication the processor may or may not be doing between itself and the 5204SE-MNETPDPMV1 gateway. 2 In order for the processor to 'see' any of the data being received from the PROFIBUS slaves or to send any data to the PROFIBUS slaves, your control and sequencing logic must initiate Modbus TCP/IP Client command messages from the processor to the gateway by using the binary trigger variables provided for each DFB. This requirement applies equally for the cyclic DFBs and for the acyclic DFBs. The main difference will be that the DFBs to update cyclic data will most likely be triggered much more often than the acyclic DFBs are triggered. For additional details, see Sample Control and Sequencing Logic for Cyclic Data Polling (page 114). 3 The basic communication cycle between the processor and the gateway is: o User-created logic in the processor sends a Modbus TCP/IP command message to the gateway by triggering one of the fourteen (14) provided DFBs. o The MNET server driver on the gateway receives the command. o The MNET server driver processes the command. o The MNET server driver returns a Modbus TCP/IP response to the processor.
Page 17 of 245

o
Some commands cause data to be returned, such as read commands. Some commands, such as write commands, return only an acknowledgement that the command was received and executed. Commands sometimes fail. Any data or error response to a command returned by the MNET server will be available in the provided Variables or DDTs after being placed there by the triggered DFB that initiated the process cycle. User-created logic in the processor must process data or errors received in the Modbus TCP/IP response, if any. o If no Modbus TCP/IP response is received within the time value specified in a Timeout variable, the triggered DFB will set a Message Error bit flag to indicate the message sequence failed and should be retried by triggering a new message cycle. 4 In cases where PROFIBUS cyclic I/O data, general gateway status, or standard PROFIBUS slave diagnostic data are concerned, these read or write requests from the processor are handled internally in the gateway and are processed asynchronously from any PROFIBUS DP Master processes that might also be running in the gateway. This means these cyclic requests tend to be responded to much more quickly than requests involving acyclic messages that must be "passed-through" to the PROFIBUS Master for execution before a Modbus TCP/IP response can be created and returned to the processor. 5 In cases where PROFIBUS DP-V1 acyclic messages are concerned, these read or write requests require a longer, more involved process cycle, synchronized with actions on the PROFIBUS DP-V1 Master side of the gateway. When the processor sends a Modbus TCP/IP read or write request, using an acyclic message DFB: o User-created logic in the processor sends a Modbus TCP/IP command message containing the data needed for the PROFIBUS DP-V1 acyclic message to the gateway by triggering one of the ten (10) provided acyclic DFBs. o The gateway MNET server must process the incoming command. o The MNET server must pass the acyclic message and any associated data through to the PROFIBUS DP-V1 Master. o The PROFIBUS Master must insert this command in between normal slave data polling messages (send an acyclic message to a particular slave or group of slaves.) o The PROFIBUS Master must receive a response from the addressed PROFIBUS slave. o The PROFIBUS Master must return any PROFIBUS slave response data to the MNET server. o The MNET server must create and return a Modbus TCP/IP response to the processor containing the data, if any, from the PROFIBUS slave or slaves.
Page 18 of 245

o
Some acyclic messages cause data to be returned. Some acyclic messages return no data. Acyclic messages sometimes fail. Communication failures could happen on either or both the Modbus TCP/IP protocol or the PROFIBUS protocol. Any data or error response to an acyclic message returned by the PROFIBUS Master or the MNET server will be available in the provided Variables or DDTs after being placed there by the triggered DFB that initiated the process cycle. Usercreated logic in the processor must process data received in the PROFIBUS DP or Modbus TCP/IP response, if any. o If no Modbus TCP/IP response is received within the time value specified in a Timeout variable, the triggered DFB will set a Message Error bit flag to indicate the message sequence failed and should be retried by triggering a new message cycle. You can see from the amount of processing involved that it will take somewhat more time for the gateway to respond to acyclic message commands than it will take to respond to cyclic I/O, status and diagnostics requests. 6 Due to the nature of the communication routines used in the processor and the Unity Pro programming language, only one Modbus TCP/IP command can be "active" or "in process" at any one time. All the provided DFBs have internal checks built in to prevent more than one at a time from being active. Therefore, any control or sequencing logic you create must respect and accommodate this processor/language limitation. Part of the accommodations you will have to make is to allow for the differing amounts of time it takes to process cyclic I/O and status commands as well as the increased time it takes to process acyclic messages. 7 All provided DFBs have binary status bits available which can be monitored by your control and sequencing logic to be sure you are not trying to activate more than one DFB-created Modbus TCP/IP message at a time. There is a Message Done bit to indicate the communication cycle completed successfully; and, there is a Message Error bit to indicate the communication cycle did not complete successfully.

3.2.2 Using ProSoft Configuration Builder

ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) provides a quick and easy way to manage gateway configuration files customized to meet your application needs. PCB is not only a powerful solution for new configuration files, but also allows you to import information from previously installed (known working) configurations to new projects.
3.2.3 Setting Up the Project

To begin, start ProSoft Configuration Builder. If you have used other Windows configuration tools before, you will find the screen layout familiar. ProSoft Configuration Builders window consists of a tree view on the left, an information pane, and a configuration pane on the right side of the window. When you first start ProSoft Configuration Builder, the tree view consists of folders for Default Project and Default Location, with a Default Module in the Default Location folder. The following illustration shows the ProSoft Configuration Builder window with a new project.
Your first task is to add the 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 gateway to the project. 1 Use the mouse to select DEFAULT MODULE in the tree view, and then click the right mouse button to open a shortcut menu.

3.3
Configuring the Gateway

To configure the gateway for your application, follow these steps: 1 Configure the PROFIBUS DP Master setting and set up all PROFIBUS DP network slave devices (page 26, page 28) 2 Configure the PROFIBUS Master DP-V1 gateway settings (page 35) 3 Configure the MNET server settings (Optional - default settings can be used without modification) (page 41) 4 Configure the MNET Client settings (Optional - default settings can be used without modification) (page 42) 5 Configure the Ethernet settings (page 42) 6 Download the project to the gateway (page 46).
3.3.1 Configuring the PROFIBUS DP Network

To configure your PROFIBUS DP network you must perform four tasks: 1 Install any PROFIBUS slave-specific device configuration files, typically called .GSD files (page 26). 2 Configure the ProLinx PROFIBUS DP Master (page 26, page 28). 3 Configure the PROFIBUS slaves. 4 Print the Unity Passthru Memory Map (page 33).
Installing the GSD Files ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) uses PROFIBUS slave device definition files (GSD files) to obtain basic configuration information about the PROFIBUS slaves you add to the network. The GSD configuration files identify the slaves capabilities so that the 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 can communicate with it correctly. Slave device manufacturers provide the GSD files for the equipment they make. Slave device files sometimes come in various languages. When a manufacturer provides slave device files in several languages, it is a common practice to use the third letter of the file extension to indicate the language used in the file. For instance: o .GSD is the most commonly used file extension and will usually be in either English or German o .GSE will usually be in English o .GSS will usually be in Spanish o .GSF will usually be in French o other combinations may also be seen, as well as other languages using the letters indicated above Follow these steps to install the GSD file or files for your slave device or devices. Tip: GSD configuration files for popular PROFIBUS slaves and ProSoft Technology solutions are included with PCB. Before installing GSD files, browse the list of available slaves in the Tree View window to see if GSD files for your slave are already installed.
Page 26 of 245
GSD files are often both model number specific as well as model revision specific. Just because you may have an older GSD file from a manufacturer for the particular make and model of your slave device does not guarantee it will work for a newer revision of that device. Be sure you obtain from the device manufacturer the correct GSD file or files for your PROFIBUS slave or slaves.

In ProSoft Configuration Builder tree view, click [+] to expand the module tree, and then double-click the PROFIBUS DP icon. This action opens the PDPMV1 PROFIBUS Master Setup dialog box. Click the CONFIGURE PROFIBUS button. This action opens the ProSoft Configuration Builder for PROFIBUS application. Open the TOOLS menu, and then choose INSTALL NEW GS* FILE. This action opens a dialog box that allows you to browse for the location of the GSD configuration files to install. (Depending on the device and language used in the file, the actual extension may be ".GSD", ".GSE", ".GSS", or other combinations; hence the generic reference to ".GS*" files, where "*" is a wildcard that stands for any letter.) Choose the file to install, and then click OPEN. If the file already exists in the configuration file path, you will be prompted to overwrite the file. You will be prompted to associate the GSD configuration file with a bitmap image of the slave device. Use the FILE / OPEN dialog box to browse for the location of the image file to use. If you have no device-specific bitmap file, you may CANCEL the bitmap upload, and a generic device icon will be used in the Bus Configuration window for this slave device.

5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 ProLinx Gateway DP-V1 Pass-Through Master Configuring the PROFIBUS Slaves
Important: The GSD file for this example is not included on the ProLinx Solutions CD-ROM, and is used for illustrative purposes only. You can download a variety of example GSD files from the PROFIBUS Trade Organization website at www.profibus.org, or from the manufacturer's website for your PROFIBUS slaves. The following steps describe how to add and configure a Siemens EM 277 I/O chassis to the PROFIBUS network. The configuration information (.GSD file) for this device must be installed according to the procedure found in Install the GSD Files (page 26). Most other PROFIBUS slaves can be configured in a similar manner. 1 In ProSoft Configuration Builder for PROFIBUS, click the plus sign [+] to expand the PROFIBUS DP tree. 2 Navigate to the folder containing the type of slave device to add (PLCS/SIEMENS/EM 277, in this example), and then click the plus sign [+] to expand the folder.

Page 30 of 245
5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 ProLinx Gateway DP-V1 Pass-Through Master 5
Drag the input and output parameters to the slot location grid (Subscriber List) below the Bus Configuration window. The slot view displays the slot number, configuration data, and input and output addresses. The PROFIBUS DP Master uses this information to identify and communicate with individual slaves on the network. For this example, we will configure 8 words of input and 32 words of output. These input and output words are assigned to addresses within the gateway's internal database.
For each new slave added to the PROFIBUS network, ProSoft Configuration Builder automatically converts the input/output byte addresses to word input/output addresses. Tip: To make it easier to view the data from individual slaves, you can create a spreadsheet with all added slaves and input and output data offsets, or you can view and print the data map.

ProSoft Configuration Builder automatically assigns a PROFIBUS address to each new slave. The slave address assignment begins at address 3 for the first slave added to the network (addresses 0, 1, and 2 are reserved for use with PROFIBUS Masters), and is incremented by 1 for each new slave added to the network. You may, however, assign any address, 0-125 to any Master or slave node as long as you do not assign the same address to more than one device. You can change the address in the COMMON tab of the Slave properties dialog box. ProSoft Configuration Builder will not allow you to assign a PROFIBUS address that is already in use by another device on this network. Leave the remaining settings unchanged for now, and click OK to close the Slave properties dialog box. Repeat steps 2 through 6 for all slaves you intend to place on the network. When you are finished adding slaves, open the PROJECT menu and choose EXIT. Click YES to save the project and return to the PROFIBUS Master Setup dialog box.

PLC Input Register Start The value you enter here will be used by PCB to assign Modicon processor's %MW memory addresses to the Unity Passthru Input Memory Map. Valid values are %MW address 00001 to highest possible address (32000 minus Input Data Size value, depending on the processor's memory configuration.) Set this parameter to the Unity Pro Memory Word (%MW) address in the Modicon processor that will hold PROFIBUS slave device cyclic input data. This start address and the Input Data Size value will determine the area of processor memory to reserve exclusively for incoming PROFIBUS cyclic input data. Caution: To avoid corruption of PROFIBUS data, you must make sure that this memory area is only read from and never written into by other parts of your application logic. Refer to the Unity Passthru Memory Map for the addresses to use (page 33). PROFIBUS cyclic input data will always be stored in the gateway's memory addresses 0000 through 0767. These are 16-bit word-sized registers, which can hold two (2) 8-bit bytes per register, for a total PROFIBUS cyclic input capacity of 1536 bytes.
Input Data Size 0 to 768 Total number of PROFIBUS Input Words (one word equals two bytes) from all PROFIBUS slaves. These Input Words will be the data received from slave devices on the PROFIBUS network.
PLC Output Register Start The value you enter here will be used by PCB to assign the processor's %MW memory addresses to the Unity Passthru Output Memory Map. Valid values are %MW address 00001 to highest possible address (32000 minus Output Data Size value, depending on processor memory configuration.) Set this parameter to the Unity Pro Memory Word (%MW) address in the processor you intend to use for holding PROFIBUS slave device cyclic output data. This start address and the Output Data Size value will determine the area of processor memory to reserve exclusively for outgoing PROFIBUS cyclic output data. Be sure other parts of your application logic put data into this area only if it should be sent to PROFIBUS slaves and be sure to put the data into the correct part of this data area, so that the data goes to the correct slave. For more information on using these memory registers, refer to Print the Unity Passthru Memory Map (page 33). You will need to create your own custom control and sequencing logic to place data into the proper places in the processor memory in this address range before you send the data to the gateway with the WriteCyclicData DFB. Page 36 of 245 ProSoft Technology, Inc. January 28, 2011
PROFIBUS cyclic output data will always be stored in the gateway's memory addresses 1000 through 1767. These are 16-bit word-sized registers, which can hold two (2) 8-bit bytes per register, for a total PROFIBUS cyclic output capacity of 1536 bytes.
Warning: Inadvertent overwriting of data in the PROFIBUS memory areas could cause unexpected behavior on your PROFIBUS DP network, leading to unintended equipment operation. Such unintended operation could cause injury to personnel or damage to equipment.
Output Data Size 0 to 768 Total number of PROFIBUS Output Words (one word equals two bytes) to be sent to all PROFIBUS slaves. These Output Words will be the data sent to slave devices on the PROFIBUS network.
Input Byte Swap YES or NO This parameter determines if the bytes in the PROFIBUS Input Data area are swapped before being stored in the gateway memory database. If the parameter is set to NO, no swapping will be applied. If the parameter is set to YES, the order of bytes in each word will be swapped before being stored in memory. Example: With Input Byte Swap set to NO, incoming order is unchanged - ABCDEF With Input Byte Swap set to YES, each byte pair is swapped - BADCFE
Output Byte Swap YES or NO This parameter determines if the bytes in the PROFIBUS Output Data area are swapped before being transmitted to slaves on the PROFIBUS network. If the parameter is set to NO, no swapping will be applied. If the parameter is set to YES, the order of bytes in each word will be swapped before being transmitted. Example: With Output Byte Swap set to NO, outgoing output order is unchanged ABCDEF With Output Byte Swap set to YES, each output byte pair is swapped BADCFE

Mailbox Messaging YES or NO This parameter controls whether or not special files will be created for import into your Unity Pro project for PROFIBUS acyclic messaging support. Set the parameter to YES if you plan to use the special acyclic messaging capabilities of PROFIBUS DP version 1. When Mailbox Messaging is set to YES, the gateway will use your PROFIBUS DP Master/slave configuration to create the required Derived Function Blocks (DFBs), Derived Data Types (DDTs), and Variables needed for processor application logic. If your PROFIBUS application uses only cyclic I/O data (PROFIBUS Input and Output Data) and you will not be using any acyclic messaging, set this parameter to NO, so that unnecessary files will not be created.
Slave Diagnostics YES or NO If the parameter is set to YES, then the gateway will poll data from all slaves on the PROFIBUS network and place it in the gateway database addresses 1800 through 2177. If it is set to NO, then the gateway will not poll any slave diagnostics data over the network and the gateway database will show zeros in this area. Each PROFIBUS slave can report six bytes (three words) of standard diagnostic data. A total of 378 words (756 bytes; 3 words or 6 bytes times 126 possible nodes) will have to be reserved to hold this Slave Diagnostic Data in processor %MW memory.
PLC Status Register Start Modicon %MW address 00001 to highest possible address (32000 MINUS 152). Set this parameter to the Unity Pro Memory Word (%MW) address in the processor that you intend to use for holding general gateway status data. This data consists of 76 words (152 bytes) of gateway status registers, error counters, and general gateway diagnostic information. This start address will determine the area of the processor memory to reserve exclusively for incoming gateway status data. Be sure this memory area is only read from and never written into by other parts of your application logic to avoid corruption of this status data. General gateway status data will always be stored in the gateway's memory addresses 2200 through 2275. For more details about the contents of these registers, refer to DFB Get Module Status (page 111).
Page 38 of 245
Watchdog Register The Watchdog function allows the gateway to monitor a database register, the Watchdog Register, to check for loss of communication with the non-PROFIBUS communication protocol. If this function is used, the other gateway protocol is expected to change the value in the Watchdog Register at an interval less than the amount of time specified in the Watchdog Timeout parameter. If the value in the Watchdog Register does not change within this amount of time, a communication loss is assumed and the Watchdog function will set the PROFIBUS outputs to the default value specified in the Watchdog Reset Value parameter. To disable this function, set this parameter to a value of -1.
Watchdog Timeout Sets the period of time (in 0.1s increments) for the gateway to wait for communication loss detection. For example, set this parameter to 100 to set a waiting period of 10 seconds. To disable this function, set this parameter to a value of -1.
Watchdog Reset Value Sets the value that will be sent to the PROFIBUS output byte registers upon communication loss as detected by the Watchdog function. To disable this function, set this parameter to a value of -1.
Page 39 of 245
PLC Control Buffer Start 0 for M340 processors only 1 to 32000 for Quantum processors only This parameter serves two purposes. First, it tells the gateway what kind of processor will be used. This affects what kind of export files are created by the Application Communication Logic (ACL) features of the gateway. If PLC Control Buffer Start is set to zero (0), export files will be created for M340 processors. If it is set to a non-zero value in the range of 1 to 32000, export files will be created for Quantum processors. Second, it tells the gateway which addresses to show in the Unity Passthru Memory Map for Quantum communication control and data buffers when a Quantum processor is used. Set this parameter to zero (0) when the gateway will be used with an M340 processor, which does not require special communication control and data buffer space be reserved in processor memory. No Control Buffer information will be shown in the Unity Passthru Memory Map when this parameter is set to zero (0). Set this parameter to a memory address (1 to 32000) to reserve memory space in a Quantum processor for communication control and data buffers. To send and receive Modbus TCP/IP messages with a Quantum processor, an area of processor memory must be set aside and reserved for exclusive use as communication control and data buffer space. The amount of memory that must be reserved varies with the amount of communication tasks in the Unity Pro program. The address you enter in this parameter will be the starting address of these buffers in %MW processor memory. How much memory to reserve depends on whether or not you plan to use the PROFIBUS Acyclic Messaging (Mailbox Messaging) capabilities of the gateway. The communication control and data buffers are related to the special Defined Function Blocks (DFBs) created for you by the gateway's ACL. The four (4) basic DFBs used to transfer PROFIBUS cyclic data, general gateway status, and standard slave diagnostic data require 436 16-bit registers of communication control and data buffer space. This is the least amount of space that will need to be reserved. The ten (10) DFBs used to accomplish Mailbox Messaging require as much as an additional 1635 registers, for a total of up to 2071 registers, that should be reserved for these special function buffers. How you set the Mailbox Messaging parameter will determine how much memory will be shown for Control Buffers in the Unity Passthru Memory Map. Setting Mailbox Messaging to NO will show 436 registers reserved for Control Buffers. Setting Mailbox Messaging to YES will show 2071 registers reserved for Control Buffers.

3.3.3 Configuring the MNET Server Settings (Optional)

All 4000 of the gateway's 16-bit internal memory registers can be read by remote Modbus TCP/IP Clients. The gateway database registers can be read by remote Modbus TCP/IP Clients (Masters) using virtual Modbus addresses 40001 through 44000 (for five-digit addressing) or 400001 through 404000 (for six-digit addressing). However, not all 4000 registers can be written with Modbus TCP/IP write requests from remote Clients. To maintain compatibility with the PROFIBUS DPV1 Master protocol on this gateway, the MNET server accepts write requests from Clients only if the register address and range (count) used in the command will place data in the PROFIBUS Output data area. This is the gateway database area that holds data which will be sent to slaves on the PROFIBUS DP network. The allowable range of Modbus TCP/IP addresses for acceptable write requests is 41001 through 41768 (for five-digit addressing) or 401001 through 401768 (for six-digit addressing). This address range is equivalent to the gateway's database registers 1000 through 1767. Care must be taken if remote Clients are allowed to write to this data area because, once data values are written into those registers, those data values will be passed to PROFIBUS slaves. Which slave or slaves receive the data will be determined by the PROFIBUS Master/slave configuration. The default values contained in MNET Servers section of PCB should work for most applications and should not need to be modified. If you wish to view the MNET server settings, you may do so by expanding the MNet Servers section of the gateway configuration tree.
Page 41 of 245
3.3.4 Configuring the MNET Client (Optional)

MNET Client commands can affect the data contained in any of the gateway's 4000-register internal memory database. Be aware that the processor logic will also be reading from and writing to the PROFIBUS areas of the gateway's memory through the MNET servers. If you decide to use Client commands in your application, be careful that you do not interfere with or overwrite data in the PROFIBUS areas of the gateway unless your application requires it. For more details on gateway memory areas, see Memory Maps (page 33).
Warning: Inadvertent overwriting of data in the PROFIBUS memory areas could cause unexpected behavior on your PROFIBUS DP network, leading to unintended equipment operation. Such unintended operation could cause injury to personnel or damage to equipment. Refer to the MNET Protocol Manual, on the ProLinx Solutions CD-ROM, for more information about the MNET Client, its functions and capabilities.
3.3.5 Configuring Ethernet Settings

Use this procedure to configure the Ethernet settings for your 5204SE-MNETPDPMV1 gateway. You must assign an IP address, Subnet Mask and you may also want to assign a Default Gateway Address if one exists on your network. After you complete this step, you can connect to the gateway with an Ethernet cable. 1 Determine the network settings for your 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 gateway, with the help of your network administrator if necessary. You will need the following information: o IP address (fixed IP required) _____ . _____ . _____ . _____ o Subnet mask _____ . _____ . _____ . _____ o Gateway address _____ . _____ . _____ . _____

3.3.6 Backing Up the Project

In this step, you will create a backup copy of your project and configuration files. The backup procedure saves your data for reuse on another machine, or allows you to restore your data in the event of a system failure.
To save your project and configuration files
In ProSoft Configuration Builder tree view, click [+] to expand the 5204SEMNET-PDPMV1 tree, and then double-click the PROFIBUS DP icon. This action opens the PDPMV1 PROFIBUS Master Setup dialog box. In the PDPMV1 PROFIBUS Master Setup dialog box, click the EXPORT MASTER CONFIG button. This action saves the PROFIBUS network configuration for your gateway in an XML file. The recommended location for this file is your My Documents folder.
Tip: You can use the XML file created by ProSoft Configuration Builder in this step to simplify the task of configuring additional PROFIBUS network modules. Because it saves the entire network configuration, you can add modules quickly by modifying only the items that are unique for each device, typically the slot number and I/O addresses. To use this saved configuration, open Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder where you saved the Master Configuration XML file, and then drag the file onto the new PROFIBUS DP icon in the ProSoft Configuration Builder tree view. 3 4 In ProSoft Configuration Builder, open the FILE menu, and then choose SAVE AS. Name the project file, and click SAVE. The recommended location for this file is your My Documents folder.
Note: All PCB project files and module-related files are automatically saved to C:\PCBExportfFiles. A complete backup consists of the Project and Master Configuration files, plus the GSD configuration files. The default location for the GSD files is C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\ProSoft\GSD (Windows XP / 2000) or C:\My Documents\.
Page 44 of 245
PCB does this complete backup for you automatically. The default location for these backup files is C:\PCBExportFiles. All the files associated with your PCB configuration will be stored in a folder with the same name as the name you used to save your PCB configuration (.ppf) file. When you exit PCB, you will be prompted to overwrite your Export folder files.
If you have made changes to your configuration settings, you should click the YES button every time you see this dialog box to have the backup files updated. Having all the files for your PCB configuration stored in one folder makes it easier to transfer the application from one system to the other or to send your files to ProSoft Technical Support when you need assistance.

In the tree view in ProSoft Configuration Builder, click once to select the module icon. Right-click the module icon and select DOWNLOAD FROM PC TO DEVICE from the shortcut menu.
Page 46 of 245
This action opens the Download files dialog box. Notice that the Ethernet address field contains the gateway default IP address. ProSoft Configuration Builder will use this default IP address to connect to the gateway.
Click TEST CONNECTION to verify that the default IP address is correct. 4 If the Test Connection procedure fails, you will see an error message.
Several factors might cause or contribute to your receiving this error. To correct the two most common errors and complete the download, check the following:
Page 47 of 245

o
Is the PC you are using to configure the gateway on the same subnet as the gateway? The subnet is determined by a combination of the IP Address and the Subnet Mask. If two devices are not on the same subnet, they will not be able to connect with each other. To correct this problem you may need to temporarily change the IP address and/or Subnet Mask on your PC to allow it to be on the same subnet as the gateway. If there is an Ethernet Gateway Server on your network, putting its IP Address in the Gateway parameter of the gateway's Ethernet configuration might also solve this problem. o Are there any switches, hubs, routers, or other network hardware between your PC and the gateway which might be blocking the messages? If your network equipment is not configured properly, your PC may not be able to connect to the gateway. To correct this problem, you could ask your Information Technology (IT) personnel to check your network configuration. Another possible solution would be to connect your PC directly to the gateway using an Ethernet crossover cable. This cable is different from standard Ethernet connection cables in that it has been specially wired for direct connection between two Ethernet devices. Ethernet crossover cables are readily available from most computer parts suppliers or may be custom-made. 5 If the connection succeeds, click the DOWNLOAD button to transfer the configuration to the gateway. If you do not have the configuration download password protection feature enabled on the gateway, which is the factory default condition, the download will begin. However, If you have set a password, the configuration download password protection feature will be enabled, and you will be prompted to enter your password before the download will be allowed to begin.

Password Protecting the Configuration

You can create password protection for the configuration that can prevent unauthorized persons from downloading configuration files. Here are some points to remember about the password protection implementation on this gateway: The gateway is shipped from the factory with password protection disabled. Whenever password protection is disabled, you may freely download configuration files to the gateway without password protection checking until you decide you need to enable this feature. To begin password protection, follow the Creating a Password procedure below to create your password. Once you create a password, each configuration download attempt will be preceded by a password check. If you enter the correct password, the download will begin. If you do not enter the correct password, the download will not be allowed to start and you will have to try again to enter the password. If you enter the password incorrectly, there is no limit on the number of times you may retry to enter the correct password. There is no automatic lock-out after a certain number of retries. Remember your password! Once password protection is enabled, if you forget your password, there is no easy way for you to recover it from the gateway, clear it, or reset it without special instructions from ProSoft Technical support. You can change your password at any time by following the Changing a Password procedure below. If you wish to discontinue using password protection, you can disable this feature by using the Removing Password Protection procedure below to disable this feature. NOTE: The original version of the gateway did not provide password protection. To use the configuration download password protection feature, you will need to be sure your hardware and software have the following version numbers: ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) software, version 2.1.9.1, or higher 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 gateway firmware, version 2.41, or higher 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 gateway operating system (OS), version 2.50, or higher You can find the gateway firmware version and OS version numbers on the label on the back of the gateway. If the version numbers you see on the label are lower than those shown here, please contact ProSoft Technology Technical Support for upgrade information. In most cases, the gateway firmware can be upgraded in the field in a just a few minutes. If your gateway requires an operating system upgrade, it may need to be returned to the factory. The latest version of PCB may be downloaded from: http://www.prosoft-technology.com/content/view/full/10018

Page 53 of 245
You will notice the Old Password box is grayed out. This indicates that password protection is currently not enabled on this gateway. Enter a password in the New Password box and then retype the password in the ReEnter New Password box. The password can be any combination of four (4) to twelve (12) letter and number (alphanumeric) characters. The password is case-sensitive, meaning: o password1 o PASSWORD1 o PaSsWoRd1 are three different passwords, not the same password typed three different ways. 3 Click OK. You will see a download progress bar near the top of the download dialog box. This indicates that password protection is being enabled on the gateway. When you see the success dialog window appear, password protection has been successfully enabled. You will now be required to enter your password whenever you wish to download a configuration to the gateway.
If the progress bar indicates the process has finished, but you do not see the success window, then password protection is not properly enabled on the gateway. This problem can usually be solved by upgrading the gateway firmware, gateway operating system loader, and/or ProSoft Configuration Builder to the latest versions that support password protection.

3.5.2 Configuring the Memory Size for the M340 Processor

The processor memory maps that you viewed in and exported from ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) will be imported into the Unity Pro project. These processor State RAM maps are calculated from the starting memory addresses and register counts entered into PCB for the gateway's input and output data images. For more information on configuring memory addresses in PCB, refer to Configuring the Gateway (page 26, page 35). Allocating processor memory to store input and output data is part of the processor configuration process. You should view the memory configuration in the PCB Processor Memory Maps before you begin to allocate memory addresses in Unity Pro. Some points to keep in mind are: As the programmer, you must be aware of the memory spaces that are available when deploying in an existing system and assign values to the Modicon processor and 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 configurations accordingly. The Modicon M340 processor has a maximum %MW memory allocation size limit of 32,464 16-bit registers. The default size is 1024 registers. While setting the %MW memory allocation, you must allocate enough total memory to accommodate the amount required for the 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 gateway as well as for the rest of your application. The total number of data registers allocated for PROFIBUS data must at least equal or exceed the number needed, which can be calculated by taking the starting register configured in PCB and adding the register count configured, plus any additional registers required for the rest of the application process logic. The memory map from PCB can help you determine these numbers. The gateway can use up to 768 words of cyclic input data, 768 words of cyclic output data, 76 words of status data, and 378 words of standard PROFIBUS slave diagnostic data. Therefore, the total %MW memory requirement for just the PROFIBUS application could be as much as 1990 words. Round this up to an even 2000 registers as the amount of %MW memory to allocate for PROFIBUS data. You must allocate at least this much memory space as a continuous, uninterrupted block of processor memory that will not be used by any I/O modules, processes, or variables. WARNING: Failure to properly map your processor memory will likely cause corruption of PROFIBUS data and can create potentially hazardous situations resulting from unexpected equipment operation, which can result in injury to personnel or damage to equipment.
Page 63 of 245
The following steps will help you determine the correct memory addresses to assign.
To view memory usage in the processor

3.5.3 Importing the M340 Functional Module (.XFM File)

To simplify the task of programming the processor when communicating with the 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1, the Application Communication Logic functions of ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) create a Unity Pro Functional Module (XFM). Note: The Functional Module is intended only for new installations of the gateway. If you have an existing installation, the following procedure will overwrite your settings, and may cause loss of functionality. DO NOT overwrite a working application until you have thoroughly reviewed the rest of the topics in this manual. The Functional Module provides easy access to: PROFIBUS DP-V0 or DP-V1 cyclic input and output data gateway input/output status data Standard PROFIBUS slave diagnostic data (six bytes per slave) PROFIBUS DP-V1 acyclic message data, such as Get Live List, Get (Extended) Slave Diagnostics, perform Freeze and Sync commands, or perform any slave device-specific commands or functions. The Functional Module file name matches the gateway name you defined in PCB and will have the extension ".XFM". This file is created by PCB when you export the processor file from the Unity Passthru Memory Map box.

In this step, you will verify that the processor and the gateway are communicating with each other over the Modbus TCP/IP Ethernet network. The sample project includes an animation table called MNETDPV1_Table. When the processor is in RUN mode and communicating with the gateway, the values in this animation table are updated whenever you trigger a GetModuleStatus read message to request general gateway status from the gateway.
To verify communication between the processor and the gateway

Place the processor in RUN mode, if you have not already done so. In the Unity Pro Project Browser pane, click [+] to open the ANIMATION TABLES tree, and then double-click MNETDPV1_TABLE. In the MNETDPV1_Table, you will see three main variables which can be expanded to see many more sub-variables. Look for the variable, MNETDPV1_StatIn. Click the [+] next to it to open it and see all the sub-variables. These will include configuration information and version/revision information, which will remain static, as well as program scan counters, input/output update counters, request/response counters, and other variables that should change whenever you trigger a status call.
Page 94 of 245
Now, look for and expand the variable, MNETDPV1_BASICVAR. From there, look for and expand the sub-variable, MODULESTATUS. Expand the OUT subvariable.
Force a one (1) into the sub-variable, GetModuleStatus. Notice that the MODIFICATION button must be engaged and you must use the SET TO 1 icon option to actually have the variable value changed so the update request will be sent. Scroll within MNETDPV1_StatIn. Notice that whenever you force the GETMODULESTATUS update, the numbers in the Value column for items such as ModuleStatus_ModuleProgramScanCounter are updated.

Basics of Working with Unity Pro

Before launching into descriptions of the Variables, Derived Data Types (DDTs) and Derived Function Blocks (DFBs) that are automatically created by the Application Communication Logic functions of ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB), it might be helpful to give a quick overview of these Unity Pro structures. Derived Data Types (DDTs) provide the basic building blocks for more complex Unity Pro data structures. They are used by both Variables and Function Blocks as a way to organize and define the characteristics of individual pieces of data. These characteristics will be shared by all instances of the data type. DDTs specify a data item's: Structure Format List of attributes Behavior Variables are the basic data storage units in Unity Pro programming software. Variables allow a processor to hold and manipulate data values using application process logic. Variables will be identified by a unique name (sometimes referred to as symbols) and will be assigned to hold a particular type of data, like binary or Boolean values (zeros and ones), signed or unsigned integer values of various sizes (8-, 16-, or 32-bit data), floating-point values, alphanumeric strings, arrays (numbered groups of the same type), DDTs, and more.
Page 97 of 245
Variables can be stored in fixed, non-changeable memory locations within the processor's memory. Such Variables are called located variables and may be referenced by their variable name (symbol) or by their memory address. However, Variables are not required to be assigned to specific, fixed memory locations. If Variables are not assigned to specific memory addresses, they are called unlocated variables and may be referenced only by their unique variable names (symbols). DDTs and Variables are then used to create Derived Function Blocks (DFBs). These DFBs have input data, internal storage data, and output data variables and DDTs associated with them. They use the data stored in DDTs and Variables in process logic algorithms, which are also part of the DFBs. Unity Pro offers several programming options to create the logic contained in the DFBs. All logic in the DFBs created by ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) is in the form of Structured Text (ST) program language sections, called Implements in Unity Pro. The Application Communication Logic functions built into ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) automatically create all the Variables, DDTs and DFBs required to allow the processor to use its native Modbus TCP/IP communication protocol capability and act as a PROFIBUS DP Master on a PROFIBUS network. The following sections in this Reference chapter give brief descriptions of the Variables, DDTs and DFBs created by PCB. Each DFB will be described and grouped with its associated Variables and DDTs. NOTE: Thorough understanding of all of this reference material is not required to successfully use the gateway. This information is given for those users who wish to have a deeper understanding of the inner workings of the system and to make it easier to troubleshoot potential communication or programming problems.

Unity Pro Program Objects and Organizing Structures

The following sections outline basic Variables and Derived Data Types (DDTs) that organize and centralize control of all the custom application logic created by the Application Communication Logic functions of PCB. These variables and structures will be the main ones used to allow the rest of the processor logic and control application to interact with the 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 gateway, as well as slaves on the PROFIBUS network. By manipulating values within these main variables, you can perform all the actions required for effective Modbus TCP/IP to PROFIBUS communication. Based on the configuration options selected, PCB will export one set of files for use with Modicon M340 Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs) and will export a different set of files for use with Modicon Quantum PACs. There are many similarities between these two sets of files. They have the same variable, DDT, and Derived Function Block (DFB) names and have similar data structures. However, Ethernet communication messages are created differently in Unity Pro logic for the M340 and Quantum platforms. Therefore, the .XFM and .XSY export files for M340 and Quantum configurations are mutually exclusive and not interchangeable. Each set of variables, DDTs, and DFBs will be discussed in separate sections of the following topics.
4.3
Modbus TCP/IP Communication Control in M340 and Quantum PACs

Unity Pro programming software (version 4.0 and higher) provides special Messaging Service Communication Functions that enable Modicon PACs to accomplish communication using multiple protocols, including Modbus TCP/IP. The special functions provided for the M340 platform are different from those provided for the Quantum platform. The special functions for each platform require similar, but different, input parameters to create a Modbus TCP/IP messages and produce similar, but different, output parameters that hold the results from message responses, if any. The M340 platform uses the DATA_EXCH function for Modbus TCP/IP messaging. PCB Application Communication Logic (ACL) creates a Derived Data Type (DDT), called Modbus, that contains all the parameters and structures need to use the DATA_EXCH function to send and receive Modbus TCP/IP messages between the M340 processor and the ProLinx gateway. The Quantum platform uses the MBP_MSTR function. PCB ACL creates a DDT, called ControlAndBufferArrays, that contains all the parameters and structures need to use the MBP_MSTR function to send and receive Modbus TCP/IP messages between the Quantum processor and the ProLinx gateway. Details about the DATA_EXCH and MBP_MSTR functions can be found in the Unity Pro Help files. From the Unity Pro Help Index menu, type in DATA_EXCH or MBP_MSTR in the keyword search window; or, click on the CONTENTS tab and look in the path, UNITY|EF/EFB/DFB LIBRARIES|COMMUNICATION LIBRARY|EXTENDED to find folders on the DATA_EXCH and the MBP_MSTR functions.

Modicon M340 Variables, Derived Data Types, and Derived Function Blocks 4.4.1 M340 Modbus Variables and Derived Data Types (DDTs)
The Modbus Derived Data Type (DDT) is a special DDT used by all other DDTs and Derived Function Blocks (DFBs). This DDT holds all the variables needed to create a Modbus TCP/IP Client command which the processor can then transmit to servers on the network. The specific purpose of this DDT is to allow any parameters or data needed to create a valid PROFIBUS DP Master request to be passed from the processor to the 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 as a Modbus TCP/IP message, which can then be re-transmitted on the PROFIBUS DP network, if required. You can think of the variables in this structure as temporary holding registers. They will be used by all the other DDTs and DFBs to build and transmit each required Modbus TCP/IP message. No direct manipulation of these variables should be required or attempted by any other parts of your application code. The other imported DDTs and DFBs will make all necessary changes to these variables for you, as required. The information here is given for reference only.

Variable Name MailboxRequestInt[ ] Size/Type 128-element 16bit integer array Description
Used to hold the raw byte values of a Modbus TCP/IP message as it is being assembled by the active DFB. Once assembly is complete, the contents of this array will be passed to the Unity Pro DATA_EXCH function to be transmitted on the Modbus TCP/IP network as a Client Request Message. Will hold a value of 3 for Read Holding Register messages to request data from the 5204SE-MNETPDPMV1 or a value of 16 for Preset (Write) Multiple Registers to send data to the 5204SE-MNETPDPMV1 Will hold the address where data will begin to be read from or written to the gateway For Read Commands to bring in PROFIBUS cyclic input data, this address will be in the range of 0767. For Write Commands that send PROFIBUS cyclic output data, this address will be in the range of 1000-1767. These address ranges are fixed in the gateway's memory and may not be changed or re-configured by the user. Will hold the number of 16-bit registers that will be affected by the command. The maximum allowable count is 125. Most messages will use lower values. A value of 0 is invalid and will cause an error. These are four standard Unity Pro communication message status words. Refer to the topic "Structure of the management parameters" in your Unity Pro documentation for more information. Since an IP address contains a combination of numbers and period characters, it must be passed to the message functions as a string of alphanumeric characters. Please see your Unity Pro documentation for the DATA_EXCH and ADDM functions for additional details.

4.4.2 MNETDPV1_BASICVAR Variables and DDTs - M340

These structures hold all the Variables and DDTs required to send and receive PROFIBUS DP-V0 or DP-V1 cyclic data messages and handle the responses. Cyclic data is all the data coming from and going to slaves on the PROFIBUS network on a regular, recurring cycle. Cyclic data transfers are accomplished at a very rapid, fixed-interval rate in a repeating cycle. The process of completing and repeating these data transfer cycles is called "polling". As you can see below, there are four major types of cyclic data: 1 Cyclic input data - data from PROFIBUS slaves sent to the Master 2 Cyclic output data - data from the PROFIBUS Master sent to the slaves 3 General Gateway (Module) Status Data - created and reported by the gateway. (Although this data is not PROFIBUS protocol-specific data, it is updated along with all the other polling data and, therefore, will be treated as cyclic data by the automatically-created Application Communication Logic DDTs and DFBs.) 4 PROFIBUS Slave Diagnostic Data - the PROFIBUS protocol specifies that each slave send six (6) 8-bit bytes of status and diagnostic data in a fixed format to the Master as part of the regular polling cycle. All the DDTs and variables required to use, control, and manage these four types of cyclic data are contained in the MNETDPV1_BASICVAR structures and substructures. Cyclic input and output (I/O) data is the data to be transferred based on the PROFIBUS Master/slave configuration you did in ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) when you configured specific amounts of inputs and outputs for each slave on the network. The ReadCyclicData sub-structures handle PROFIBUS cyclic input data. For more information, see DFB Read Cyclic Data (page 104). The WriteCyclicData sub-structures handle PROFIBUS cyclic output data. For more information, see DFB Write Cyclic Data (page 108). The ModuleStatus sub-structures handle general gateway status data. For more information, see DFB Get Module Status (page 111). The PB_SLVDiagnostics sub-structures handle the standard PROFIBUS slave diagnostic data. For more information, see DFB Get PROFIBUS Standard Slave Diagnostics (page 113).

4.4.3 MNETDPV1_MailVar Variables and DDTs - M340

These structures hold the all the Variables and DDTs required to send and receive PROFIBUS DP-V1 acyclic messages, also called Mailbox Messages. Note that acyclic messaging is available only on devices using PROFIBUS DP Version 1 or above. PROFIBUS Version 0 devices do not support acyclic messaging. Acyclic messages are PROFIBUS Master commands that are sent in addition to normal cyclic polling. Acyclic messages are sent at irregular intervals, interspersed in between regular cyclic polling messages. Cyclic polling is deterministic and happens at predictable intervals. Acyclic messaging is not deterministic and not guaranteed to happen at any predictable interval. For this reason, acyclic messages are used for special functions more than for normal data transfer operations. There are ten major types of acyclic messages supported by the gateway: 1 Read Acyclic Data - There are limits to the amount of cyclic input data that can be transferred from PROFIBUS slaves. Some devices can provide more data than can fit within these limits. Acyclic Read messages give the PROFIBUS Master a way to request this additional slave data. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Read Class 1 Acyclic Data (page 132). 2 Write Acyclic Data - There are limits to the amount of cyclic output data that can be transferred to PROFIBUS slaves. Some devices require more data than can fit within these limits. Acyclic Write messages give the PROFIBUS Master a way to send this additional data to the slaves. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Write Class 1 Acyclic Data (page 134). 3 Get Slave Configuration - These structures allow the Master to read the actual configuration (identifier bytes) of a specified slave. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Get Slave Configuration (page 122). 4 Get (Extended) Slave Diagnostic Data - Some PROFIBUS DP-V1 devices can provide additional diagnostic and alarm data in addition to the six standard diagnostic bytes provided by all slaves. The Get Slave Diagnostic Data message allows the PROFIBUS DP Master to retrieve this extra data from slaves that can provide it. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Get Slave Diagnostics (page 120). 5 Get Live List - A PROFIBUS network can have up to 126 total nodes. The Live List is a way for the Master to know which node addresses have active slaves associated with them and which do not. This is a way to see what nodes are 'alive' and 'living' on the network, attached, and ready to transfer data. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Get Live List (page 118). 6 Set Slave Address - For slaves that support this capability, this structure allows the PROFIBUS DP Master to change the slave address number of a particular slave. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Set Address (page 128).
Page 103 of 245
Reference User Manual 7
Set Slave Mode - Some PROFIBUS slaves support capabilities called Sync and Freeze. These are special command features which allow a PROFIBUS Master to control when and how a slave updates its internal cyclic inputs and outputs. These structures give the Master the ability to send these special kinds of control messages. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Set Slave Mode (page 126). 8 Start/Stop Slaves - These structures allow the Master to stop or start cyclic data transfers with a slave or or group of slaves. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Start/Stop Slave (page 124). 9 Set Operate Mode - These structures allow the Master to suspend or restart all cyclic polling activity on the network. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Set Operating Mode (page 116). 10 Get Database - These structures allow the Master to obtain and report database configuration information about the PROFIBUS Master hardware. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Get Database Information (page 130). All the DDTs and variables required to use, control, and manage these ten types of acyclic messages are contained in the MNETDPV1_MAILVAR structures and sub-structures.
4.4.4 Cyclic I/O Variables, DDTs and DFBs - M340

The following five sections provide a more detailed breakdown of the Variables, DDTs and DFBs used for transferring PROFIBUS cyclic data.
DFB Read Cyclic Data - M340 The Read Cyclic Data DFB is used to retrieve PROFIBUS cyclic input data from the 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 gateway and bring it back into the processor. This is the data being received by the PROFIBUS DP-V1 Master from the slave or slaves on the PROFIBUS network. MNETDPV1_BASICVAR_ReadCyclicData Variables - M340 This variable structure is the one to use with your control and sequencing logic when you want to send a request to read PROFIBUS cyclic input data.
Page 104 of 245

Variable Name Out - Timeout Size/Type 1 16-bit integer Description
Used to hold the amount of time in milliseconds to wait for a response to the Modbus TCP/IP command before assuming a communication error has occurred and setting the InMessageError status bit This is the bit your control and sequencing logic will use to trigger a cyclic read message. Set this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active and when you want to update the PROFIBUS cyclic slave input data. Will hold the total number of 16-bit register words of PROFIBUS cyclic input data that need to be read. This value will be the same as what you entered in the PCB configuration for the [PROFIBUS Master DPV1] Input Data Size parameter For details, see Modbus DDT (page 100). The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP response is successfully received and the PROFIBUS cyclic input data variables have been updated. The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP response is not successfully received. When this bit is set, it indicates your control and sequencing logic should retry the command.

MNETDPV1_Inputs Variable - M340 This variable is an array of 1536 bytes. It is used to receive up to 768 words (1536 bytes) of PROFIBUS cyclic input data from slaves on the PROFIBUS network.
The order of data in this array will match the order in the PCB memory maps you exported and/or printed. The following screen shot shows a typical memory map.
The PCB table lists usage in words rather than bytes, where one (1) word equals two (2) bytes. In this example, there are only eight (8) total words or 16 total bytes of PROFIBUS cyclic input data configured (highlighted in yellow) of the available 1536 bytes that could be used. The 16 bytes (8 words) of PROFIBUS inputs from the device assigned to Slave Address 1 will be stored in the first 16 bytes of this array. You should also notice that the native storage size in the gateway's memory is 16-bit or 2-byte word registers. If the number of inputs from the first configured device is an odd number of bytes, you will see that memory register hold one byte from the first device in its low-order byte. The higher-order byte of this register will hold the first byte of data for the next configured slave device. In other words, this data is byte-packed with no extra blank bytes inserted just so the data for each slave address can begin on a low-order byte boundary.
Page 106 of 245
If you wish to put gaps into the memory map to give more separation between data blocks from different slave addresses, you may do so in the PROFIBUS Master configuration in PCB by editing the starting address of the data for each slave so that it falls on whatever byte or register address you prefer. MNETDPV1_DataIn Variables - M340 These variables allow you to take advantage of the MNETDPV1_DataIn DDT structure.
There is no direct link or logic provided to populate this array with the data received in the MNETDPV1_Inputs variable. If you wish to use these variables for your application, you will need to create the logic to link the individual bytes of the MNETDPV1_Inputs variable to the word array variables in this structure. The %MW addresses shown are for illustration only. If you decide to use these variables, your application may require that you map them to addresses other than the ones shown. You may assign these variables to any valid %MW addresses that exist in your processor configuration. Sample Procedure for Copying from the MNETDPV1_Inputs array to the MNETDPV1_DataIn Variables 1 Create an INT variable to use as the control variable in a copy loop. This example uses the variable "i". 2 Assign a specific %MW address to the variables in the MNETDPV1_Inputs variable array. This example uses address %MW 200. 3 Assign a specific %MW address to the MNETDPV1_DataIn variable structure. This example uses address %MW 1. 4 Use logic to copy from one set of %MW memory addresses to the other for the amount of data you need to copy. In our sample configuration, we have 16 bytes of PROFIBUS cyclic input data. So, the logic needed would look something like this:
FOR i:=0 to 15 DO %MW1[i]:=%MW200[i] ; END_FOR ;

Reference User Manual DFB Write Cyclic Data - M340
MNETDPV1_BASICVAR_WriteCyclicData Variables - M340 This variable structure is the one to use with your control and sequencing logic when you want to send a request to write PROFIBUS cyclic output data.
Variable Name Out WriteCyclicData
Size/Type 1 Single-bit Boolean 1 16-bit integer
Description This is the bit your control and sequencing logic will use to trigger a cyclic write message. Set this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active and when you want to send PROFIBUS cyclic slave output data. Will hold the total number of 16-bit register words of PROFIBUS cyclic output data that need to be written. This value will be the same as what you entered in the PCB configuration for the [PROFIBUS Master DPV1] Output Data Size parameter. Used to hold the amount of time in milliseconds to wait for a response to the Modbus TCP/IP command before assuming a communication error has occurred and setting the InMessageError status bit. For details, see Modbus DDT (page 100).

MNETDPV1_Outputs Variable - M340 This variable is an array of 1536 bytes. It is used to hold up to 768 words (1536 bytes) of PROFIBUS cyclic output data to be sent to slaves on the PROFIBUS network.
The order of data in this array will match the order in the PCB memory maps you exported and/or printed. The following illustration shows a typical memory map.
The PCB table lists usage in words rather than bytes, where one (1) word equals two (2) bytes. In this example, there are only 32 total words or 64 total bytes of PROFIBUS output data configured of the 1536 bytes available that could be used. The first 64 bytes (32 words) this array will hold data to be sent to Slave Address 1, Slot 0. You should also notice that the native storage size in the gateway's memory is 16-bit or 2-byte word registers. When you have more than one slave device, this data is 'byte-packed' with no extra blank bytes inserted just so the data for each slave address can begin on an even-numbered, low-order byte boundary. If you wish to put gaps into the memory map to give more separation between data blocks from different slave addresses, you may do so in the PROFIBUS Master configuration in PCB by editing the starting address of the data for each slave.
Page 109 of 245
MNETDPV1_DataOut Variable - M340 These variables allow you to take advantage of the MNETDPV1_DataOut DDT structure.
There is no direct link or logic provided to populate data in the MNETDPV1_Outputs variable from the data in these variables. If you wish to use these variables for your application, you will need to create the logic to link the variables in this structure to the MNETDPV1_Outputs array variable. The %MW addresses shown are for illustration only. If you decide to use these variables, your application may require that you map them to addresses other than the ones shown here. You may assign these variables to any valid %MW addresses that exist in your processor configuration. Sample Procedure for Copying from the MNETDPV1_DataOut variables to the MNETDPV1_Outputs array 1 Create an INT variable to use as the control variable in a copy loop. This example uses the variable "j". 2 Assign a specific %MW address to the variables in the MNETDPV1_DataOut variable structure. This example uses address %MW 1000. 3 Assign a specific %MW address to the MNETDPV1_Outputs variable array. This example uses address %MW 1200. 4 Use logic to copy from one set of %MW memory addresses to the other for the amount of data you need to copy. In our sample configuration, we have 64 bytes of PROFIBUS cyclic output data. So, the logic needed would look something like this:
FOR j:=0 to 63 DO %MW1000[j]:=%MW1200[j] ; END_FOR ;

Description For details, see Modbus DDT (page 100). This is the bit your control and sequencing logic will use to trigger a message to get general gateway status data. Set this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active and when you want to update the StatInF variable table. Used to hold the amount of time in milliseconds to wait for a response to the Modbus TCP/IP command before assuming a communication error has occurred and setting the InMessageError status bit The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP response is successfully received and the general gateway status data variables have been updated. The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP response is not successfully received. When this bit is set, it indicates your control and sequencing logic should retry the command.

Page 112 of 245
The %MW addresses shown are for illustration only. If you decide to use these variables, your application may require that you map them to addresses other than the ones shown here. You may assign these variables to any valid %MW addresses that exist in your processor configuration by setting the desired start address in the PLC Status Register Start parameter in the PCB configuration file. This will cause the import files to contain addresses in the range you select and change the values displayed in this array.
DFB Get PROFIBUS Standard Slave Diagnostics - M340 MNETDPV1_BASICVAR_PB_SLVDiagnostics Variables - M340 This variable structure is the one to use with your control and sequencing logic when you want to send a request to read standard PROFIBUS slave diagnostic data.

Description Used to hold the amount of time in milliseconds to wait for a response to the Modbus TCP/IP command before assuming a communication error has occurred and setting the In-MessageError status bit This is the bit your control and sequencing logic will use to trigger a read message that will retrieve PROFIBUS slave diagnostic data. Set this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active and when you want to update the MNETDPV1_SLVDIAG data variables. For details, see Modbus DDT (page 100). The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP response is successfully received and the PROFIBUS cyclic input data variables have been updated. The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP response is not successfully received. When this bit is set, it indicates your control and sequencing logic should retry the command.

MNETDPV1_SLVDIAG Variables - M340 This variable structure is a collection of six-byte arrays. Each array element holds the six bytes of standard PROFIBUS slave data reported to the PROFIBUS Master from each slave that exists on the network as part of the regular cyclic data polling scheme. The array element number corresponds to the node address of each slave.
The PB_SlaveDiagnostic DFB will automatically populate these variables with the diagnostic data returned by the Modbus TCP/IP command. The %MW addresses shown are for illustration only. If you decide to use these variables, your application may require that you map them to addresses other than the ones shown here. You may assign these variables to any valid %MW addresses that exist in your processor configuration.
4.4.5 Sample Control and Sequencing Logic for Cyclic Data Polling M340
Here is a structured text (ST) logic example of how you might control and sequence the PROFIBUS cyclic data DFBs. You may adapt this sample to fit your application or you may choose to create your own control and sequencing scheme that is more suitable for your specific needs. For this example, start by creating two variables:
LastExecuted Start as type INT as type BOOL
Page 114 of 245
Then, you can use the following ST logic code.

4.4.6 Acyclic Mailbox Message DFBs - M340

These following eleven sections provide information about the Derived Data Types (DDTs) and Variables associated with each of the ten (10) Derived Function Blocks (DFBs) created by the Application Communication Logic functions of ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) that can be used to send PROFIBUS DP-V1 acyclic messaging. Your application-specific control and sequencing logic will use these variables to activate these special functions, if required, as required, and receive any results that may be returned. The last item for each DFB topic is a breakdown of the PROFIBUS acyclic message structure. Creating these messages and handling the responses, if any, will all be done for you by the provided DFBs. Since each message has its own unique set of error codes, the primary reason for including this message structure information is to help you interpret any error codes you may receive as a result of activating one of these acyclic messages. The eleventh section contains acyclic message error code information.
DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Set Operating Mode - M340 This command allows setting the operating mode of the PROFIBUS Master (STOP, CLEAR, or OPERATE). MNETDPV1_MAILVAR_SetOperateMode Variables - M340 This variable structure is the one to use with your control and sequencing logic when you want to send a request to set the PROFIBUS Master/network operating mode. Possible choices are: Operate - Tells the PROFIBUS Master to begin and continue normal cyclic polling and pass acyclic messages, if requested. The network should be in STOP mode when you issue this command message. Stop - Tells the PROFIBUS Master to interrupt normal cyclic polling. Acyclic messaging can still be accomplished when the network is stopped. The network should be in OPERATE mode when you issue this command. Clear - Tells the PROFIBUS Master to attempt to clear diagnostic errors and re-initialize the PROFIBUS network. The network should be in STOP mode when you issue this command.

Variable Name Out - Operate
Size/Type 1 Single-Bit Boolean
Description This is the bit your control and sequencing logic will use to trigger a message to tell the PROFIBUS Master to begin and continue normal network cyclic polling and acyclic messaging. Set this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active and you want to send this acyclic message. This is the bit your control and sequencing logic will use to trigger a message to tell the PROFIBUS Master to stop normal network cyclic polling. Some acyclic messaging can still be accomplished in this mode. Set this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active and you want to send this acyclic message. This is the bit your control and sequencing logic will use to trigger a message to tell the PROFIBUS Master to clear slave diagnostic faults and re-initialize the PROFIBUS network. Set this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active, the network mode is currently set to STOP, and you want to send this acyclic message. Used to hold the amount of time in milliseconds to wait for a response to the Modbus TCP/IP command before assuming a communication error has occurred and setting the InMessageError status bit For details, see Modbus DDT (page 100). The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP response is successfully received. The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP response is not successfully received. When this bit is set, it indicates your control and sequencing logic should retry the command.

DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Get Live List - M340 This acyclic message returns 127 bytes of information about the nodes on the network. Each byte holds the node type for one bus subscriber (node or device). The position of the byte in the response data corresponds to the address (0 to 125) of the node on the network. The content of each byte tells whether the node is a Master or slave (multiple PROFIBUS Masters may co-exist on the same physical network). This acyclic message can be sent in all operation modes (STOP, CLEAR, and OPERATE); however, the gateway must be initialized properly. MNETDPV1_MAILVAR_GetLiveList Variables - M340 This variable structure is the one to use with your control and sequencing logic when you want to request a list of PROFIBUS network nodes (bus subscribers).

DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Set Slave Mode - M340 In addition to station-related user data transfer, which is executed automatically, the Master can send control acyclic messages to a single slave, a group of slaves, or all slaves simultaneously. These control acyclic messages are transmitted as multicast acyclic messages. This permits use of sync and freeze modes for event-controlled synchronization of the slaves. The slaves begin sync mode when they receive a sync acyclic message from their assigned Master. The outputs of all addressed slaves are then frozen in their current state. During subsequent user data transmissions, the output data are stored on the slaves, but the output states remain unchanged. The stored output data are not sent to the outputs until the next sync acyclic message is received. Sync mode is concluded with the unsync acyclic message. Similarly, a freeze control acyclic message causes the addressed slaves to assume freeze mode. In this operating mode, the states of the inputs are frozen until the Master sends the next freeze acyclic message. Freeze mode is concluded with the unfreeze acyclic message. Note 1: It is only possible to send Sync and Freeze control acyclic messages when operating mode is either CLEAR or OPERATE mode. Note 2: Not all slaves support this feature. Refer to the documentation for the actual slave for more information. For additional details, see Set Slave Mode Message Structure (page 196). MNETDPV1_MAILVAR_SetSlaveMode Variables - M340 This variable structure is the one to use with your control and sequencing logic when you want to send a request to the PROFIBUS Master to send Sync and Freeze control messages to a slave or group of slaves.

Modicon Quantum Variables, Derived Data Types and Derived Function Blocks 4.5.1 Quantum Communication Control and Data Buffer Variables and Derived Data Types (DDTs)
The MBP_MSTR function used by the Quantum platform performs a similar function to that of the DATA_EXCH function in the M340 platform. However, the MBP_MSTR function uses a different structure which requires the use of two variable arrays: a data buffer array, called BufferArray, and a control parameter array, called ControlArray. To make it more convenient for you, the two DDTs and variable arrays have been combined into one mid-level structure, called ControlAndBufferArrays DDT.
The BufferArray is used to hold only the data to be sent or the data received in the Modbus message created by the MBP_MSTR function. The BufferArray is an array of 100 16-bit integer registers. Since this array holds only the data contained in a Modbus message, the significance of the values in this array depends on how the data is to be used in the application. The ControlArray holds all the parameters needed to determine the type of message to be sent (read or write message), the amount of data to transfer in the message (register count), and the address of the device that will be the message target (the IP address of the ProLinx gateway). This array has a fixed structure, in which each element contains the value for a specific MBP_MSTR parameter. Here are the definitions of the parameters held in the ControlArray.

Control[2]
Holds the MBP_MSTR Block Error Status A value will be placed in this register after the message has completed, failed, or timed out. 0 = Message completed successfully Any non-zero value indicates an unsuccessful message attempt. For details, see MBP_MSTR Error Codes Holds the length (number of 16-bit registers) to be sent or requested by the MBP_MSTR Block. Holds MSTR operation-dependent information. Typically, this will be used to hold the starting register address in the target device where data will be written by a write command or read by a read command. Holds MBP_MSTR Routing Register information. Used to specify a message source node. Most Significant Byte (MSB) = Source Node Address, which could be the slot number of an NOE module or a Quantum processors built-in Ethernet port. Use a default value of 254 (16#FE00 hex) to use a Quantum processor's built-in Ethernet port. Least Significant Byte (LSB) = MBP on Ethernet Transporter (MET) mapping index.

4.5.2 MNETDPV1_BASICVAR Variables and DDTs - Quantum

These structures hold all the Variables and DDTs required to send and receive PROFIBUS DP-V0 or DP-V1 cyclic data messages and handle the responses. Cyclic data is all the data coming from and going to slaves on the PROFIBUS network on a regular, recurring cycle. Cyclic data transfers are accomplished at a very rapid, fixed-interval rate in a repeating cycle. The process of completing and repeating these data transfer cycles is called "polling". As you can see below, there are four major types of cyclic data: 1 Cyclic input data - data from PROFIBUS slaves sent to the Master 2 Cyclic output data - data from the PROFIBUS Master sent to the slaves 3 General Gateway (Module) Status Data - created and reported by the gateway. (Although this data is not PROFIBUS protocol-specific data, it is updated along with all the other polling data and, therefore, will be treated as cyclic data by the automatically-created Application Communication Logic DDTs and DFBs.) 4 PROFIBUS Slave Diagnostic Data - the PROFIBUS protocol specifies that each slave send six (6) 8-bit bytes of status and diagnostic data in a fixed format to the Master as part of the regular polling cycle. All the DDTs and variables required to use, control, and manage these four types of cyclic data are contained in the MNETDPV1_BASICVAR structures and substructures. Cyclic input and output (I/O) data is the data to be transferred based on the PROFIBUS Master/slave configuration you did in ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) when you configured specific amounts of inputs and outputs for each slave on the network. The ReadCyclicData sub-structures handle PROFIBUS cyclic input data. For more information, see DFB Read Cyclic Data (page 144). The WriteCyclicData sub-structures handle PROFIBUS cyclic output data. For more information, see DFB Write Cyclic Data (page 148). The ModuleStatus sub-structures handle general gateway status data. For more information, see DFB Get Module Status (page 152). The PB_SLVDiagnostics sub-structures handle the standard PROFIBUS slave diagnostic data. For more information, see DFB Get PROFIBUS Standard Slave Diagnostics (page 156).
Page 141 of 245
4.5.3 MNETDPV1_MailVar Variables and DDTs - Quantum

These structures hold the all the Variables and DDTs required to send and receive PROFIBUS DP-V1 acyclic messages, also called Mailbox Messages. Note that acyclic messaging is available only on devices using PROFIBUS DP Version 1 or above. PROFIBUS Version 0 devices do not support acyclic messaging. Acyclic messages are PROFIBUS Master commands that are sent in addition to normal cyclic polling. Acyclic messages are sent at irregular intervals, interspersed in between regular cyclic polling messages. Cyclic polling is deterministic and happens at predictable intervals. Acyclic messaging is not deterministic and not guaranteed to happen at any predictable interval. For this reason, acyclic messages are used for special functions more than for normal data transfer operations. There are ten major types of acyclic messages supported by the gateway: 1 Read Acyclic Data - There are limits to the amount of cyclic input data that can be transferred from PROFIBUS slaves. Some devices can provide more data than can fit within these limits. Acyclic Read messages give the PROFIBUS Master a way to request this additional slave data. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Read Class 1 Acyclic Data (page 178). 2 Write Acyclic Data - There are limits to the amount of cyclic output data that can be transferred to PROFIBUS slaves. Some devices require more data than can fit within these limits. Acyclic Write messages give the PROFIBUS Master a way to send this additional data to the slaves. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Write Class 1 Acyclic Data (page 181). 3 Get Slave Configuration - These structures allow the Master to read the actual configuration (identifier bytes) of a specified slave. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Get Slave Configuration (page 167). 4 Get (Extended) Slave Diagnostic Data - Some PROFIBUS DP-V1 devices can provide additional diagnostic and alarm data in addition to the six standard diagnostic bytes provided by all slaves. The Get Slave Diagnostic Data message allows the PROFIBUS DP Master to retrieve this extra data from slaves that can provide it. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Get Slave Diagnostics (page 164). 5 Get Live List - A PROFIBUS network can have up to 126 total nodes. The Live List is a way for the Master to know which node addresses have active slaves associated with them and which do not. This is a way to see what nodes are 'alive' and 'living' on the network, attached, and ready to transfer data. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Get Live List (page 162). 6 Set Slave Address - For slaves that support this capability, this structure allows the PROFIBUS DP Master to change the slave address number of a particular slave. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Set Address (page 174).
Page 142 of 245
Set Slave Mode - Some PROFIBUS slaves support capabilities called Sync and Freeze. These are special command features which allow a PROFIBUS Master to control when and how a slave updates its internal cyclic inputs and outputs. These structures give the Master the ability to send these special kinds of control messages. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Set Slave Mode (page 171). 8 Start/Stop Slaves - These structures allow the Master to stop or start cyclic data transfers with a slave or or group of slaves. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Start/Stop Slave (page 169). 9 Set Operate Mode - These structures allow the Master to suspend or restart all cyclic polling activity on the network. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Set Operating Mode (page 160). 10 Get Database - These structures allow the Master to obtain and report database configuration information about the PROFIBUS Master hardware. For detailed information, see DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Get Database Information (page 176). All the DDTs and variables required to use, control, and manage these ten types of acyclic messages are contained in the MNETDPV1_MAILVAR structures and sub-structures.

4.5.4 Cyclic I/O Variables, DDTs and DFBs - Quantum

The following sections provide a more detailed breakdown of the Variables, DDTs and DFBs used for transferring PROFIBUS cyclic data.
DFB ReadCycData - Quantum The ReadCycData DFB is used to retrieve PROFIBUS cyclic input data from the 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 gateway and bring it back into the processor. This is the data being received by the PROFIBUS DP-V1 Master from the slave or slaves on the PROFIBUS network. MNETDPV1_BASICVAR_ReadCyclicData Variables - Quantum This variable structure is the one to use with your control and sequencing logic when you want to send a request to read PROFIBUS cyclic input data.
Page 144 of 245

Variable Name Out - ReadcyclicData Size/Type 1 Single-bit Boolean 1 16-bit integer Description
This is the bit your control and sequencing logic will use to trigger a cyclic read message. Set this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active and when you want to update the PROFIBUS cyclic slave input data. Will hold the total number of 16-bit register words of PROFIBUS cyclic input data that need to be read. This value will be the same as what you entered in the PCB configuration for the [PROFIBUS Master DPV1] Input Data Size parameter Each of the four integer elements holds one octet of the message destination device's IP Address. For this application, it will be the the ProLinx gateway's Ethernet port address. Default value for Quantum processors with built-in Ethernet port is 254 (16#FE00 hex) For details, see "MBP_MSTR, Ethernet (Quantum) Control Block for TCP/IP Ethernet" in Quantum Help Files, or Quantum Communication Control and Data Buffer Variables and DDTs (page 136) The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP message has been initiated and is being processed. The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP response is not successfully received. When this bit is set, it indicates your control and sequencing logic should retry the command. The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP response is successfully received and the PROFIBUS cyclic input data variables have been updated.

MNETDPV1_Inputs Variable - Quantum This variable is an array of 1536 bytes. It is used to receive up to 768 words (1536 bytes) of PROFIBUS cyclic input data from slaves on the PROFIBUS network.
The order of data in this array will match the order in the PCB memory maps you exported and/or printed. The following screen shot shows a typical memory map.
The PCB table lists usage in words rather than bytes, where one (1) word equals two (2) bytes. In this example, there are only eight (8) total words or 16 total bytes of PROFIBUS cyclic input data configured (highlighted in yellow) of the available 1536 bytes that could be used. The 16 bytes (8 words) of PROFIBUS inputs from the device assigned to Slave Address 1 will be stored in the first 16 bytes of this array. You should also notice that the native storage size in the gateway's memory is 16-bit or 2-byte word registers. If the number of inputs from the first configured device is an odd number of bytes, you will see that memory register hold one byte from the first device in its low-order byte. The higher-order byte of this register will hold the first byte of data for the next configured slave device. In other words, this data is byte-packed with no extra blank bytes inserted just so the data for each slave address can begin on a low-order byte boundary.
Page 146 of 245
If you wish to put gaps into the memory map to give more separation between data blocks from different slave addresses, you may do so in the PROFIBUS Master configuration in PCB by editing the starting address of the data for each slave so that it falls on whatever byte or register address you prefer. MNETDPV1_DataIn Variables - Quantum These variables allow you to take advantage of the MNETDPV1_DataIn DDT structure.
There is no direct link or logic provided to populate this array with the data received in the MNETDPV1_Inputs variable. If you wish to use these variables for your application, you will need to create the logic to link the individual bytes of the MNETDPV1_Inputs variable to the word array variables in this structure. The %MW addresses shown are for illustration only. If you decide to use these variables, your application may require that you map them to addresses other than the ones shown. You may assign these variables to any valid %MW addresses that exist in your processor configuration. Sample Procedure for Copying from the MNETDPV1_Inputs array to the MNETDPV1_DataIn Variables 1 Create an INT variable to use as the control variable in a copy loop. This example uses the variable "i". 2 Assign a specific %MW address to the variables in the MNETDPV1_Inputs variable array. This example uses address %MW 200. 3 Assign a specific %MW address to the MNETDPV1_DataIn variable structure. This example uses address %MW 1. 4 Use logic to copy from one set of %MW memory addresses to the other for the amount of data you need to copy. In our sample configuration, we have 16 bytes of PROFIBUS cyclic input data. So, the logic needed would look something like this:
FOR i:=0 to 15 DO %MW1[i]:=%MW200[i] ; END_FOR ;

Variable Name Size/Type Description
Out 1 WriteCyclicData Single-bit Boolean Out RegisterCount 1 16-bit integer
This is the bit your control and sequencing logic will use to trigger a cyclic write message. Set this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active and when you want to send PROFIBUS cyclic slave output data. Will hold the total number of 16-bit register words of PROFIBUS cyclic output data that need to be written. This value will be the same as what you entered in the PCB configuration for the [PROFIBUS Master DPV1] Output Data Size parameter. Each of the four integer elements holds one octet of the message destination device's IP Address. For this application, it will be the the ProLinx gateway's Ethernet port address. Default value for Quantum processors with built-in Ethernet port is 254 (16#FE00 hex) For details, see "MBP_MSTR, Ethernet (Quantum) - Control Block for TCP/IP Ethernet" in Quantum Help Files, or Quantum Communication Control and Data Buffer Variables and DDTs (page 136) The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP message has been initiated and is being processed. The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP response is successfully received and the PROFIBUS cyclic input data variables have been updated.

MNETDPV1_Outputs Variable - Quantum This variable is an array of 1536 bytes. It is used to hold up to 768 words (1536 bytes) of PROFIBUS cyclic output data to be sent to slaves on the PROFIBUS network.
The order of data in this array will match the order in the PCB memory maps you exported and/or printed. The following illustration shows a typical memory map.
The PCB table lists usage in words rather than bytes, where one (1) word equals two (2) bytes. In this example, there are only 32 total words or 64 total bytes of PROFIBUS output data configured of the 1536 bytes available that could be used. The first 64 bytes (32 words) this array will hold data to be sent to Slave Address 1, Slot 0. You should also notice that the native storage size in the gateway's memory is 16-bit or 2-byte word registers. When you have more than one slave device, this data is 'byte-packed' with no extra blank bytes inserted just so the data for each slave address can begin on an even-numbered, low-order byte boundary. If you wish to put gaps into the memory map to give more separation between data blocks from different slave addresses, you may do so in the PROFIBUS Master configuration in PCB by editing the starting address of the data for each slave.

MNETDPV1_DataOut Variable - Quantum These variables allow you to take advantage of the MNETDPV1_DataOut DDT structure.
There is no direct link or logic provided to populate data in the MNETDPV1_Outputs variable from the data in these variables. If you wish to use these variables for your application, you will need to create the logic to link the variables in this structure to the MNETDPV1_Outputs array variable. The %MW addresses shown are for illustration only. If you decide to use these variables, your application may require that you map them to addresses other than the ones shown here. You may assign these variables to any valid %MW addresses that exist in your processor configuration. Sample Procedure for Copying from the MNETDPV1_DataOut variables to the MNETDPV1_Outputs array 1 Create an INT variable to use as the control variable in a copy loop. This example uses the variable "j". 2 Assign a specific %MW address to the variables in the MNETDPV1_DataOut variable structure. This example uses address %MW 1000. 3 Assign a specific %MW address to the MNETDPV1_Outputs variable array. This example uses address %MW 1200. 4 Use logic to copy from one set of %MW memory addresses to the other for the amount of data you need to copy. In our sample configuration, we have 64 bytes of PROFIBUS cyclic output data. So, the logic needed would look something like this:
FOR j:=0 to 63 DO %MW1000[j]:=%MW1200[j] ; END_FOR ;

Variable Name Out - GetModuleStatus Size/Type 1 Single-bit Boolean Description
This is the bit your control and sequencing logic will use to trigger a message to get general gateway status data. Set this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active and when you want to update the StatInF variable table. Each of the four integer elements holds one octet of the message destination device's IP Address. For this application, it will be the the ProLinx gateway's Ethernet port address.

You may adapt this sample to fit your application or you may choose to create your own control and sequencing scheme that is more suitable for your specific needs. For this example, start by creating two variables:
LastExecuted Start as type INT as type BOOL
Then, you can use the following ST logic code. Each time you set the variable Start equal to 1, it will begin executing a sequence to read cyclic inputs, write cyclic outputs, get general gateway status, and get standard PROFIBUS slavespecific diagnostic data. As long as Start remains equal to 1, this sequence will roll over and be repeated until interrupted by setting Start = 0.
IF Start:=1 THEN IF MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.PB_SLVDiagnostics.Out.GetPBSlaveDiagnostics=0 AND MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.ModuleStatus.Out.GetModuleStatus=0 AND MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.WriteCyclicData.Out.WriteCyclicData=0 AND MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.ReadCyclicData.Out.ReadcyclicData=0 THEN IF LastExcuted=0 THEN MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.ReadCyclicData.Out.ReadcyclicData:=1; LastExcuted:=1; END_IF; END_IF; IF MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.PB_SLVDiagnostics.Out.GetPBSlaveDiagnostics=0 AND MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.ModuleStatus.Out.GetModuleStatus=0 AND MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.WriteCyclicData.Out.WriteCyclicData=0 AND MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.ReadCyclicData.Out.ReadcyclicData=0 THEN IF LastExcuted=1 THEN MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.WriteCyclicData.Out.WriteCyclicData:=1; LastExcuted:=2; END_IF; END_IF; IF MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.PB_SLVDiagnostics.Out.GetPBSlaveDiagnostics=0 AND MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.ModuleStatus.Out.GetModuleStatus=0 AND MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.WriteCyclicData.Out.WriteCyclicData=0 AND MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.ReadCyclicData.Out.ReadcyclicData=0 THEN IF LastExcuted=2 THEN MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.ModuleStatus.Out.GetModuleStatus:=1; LastExcuted:=3; END_IF; END_IF; IF MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.PB_SLVDiagnostics.Out.GetPBSlaveDiagnostics=0 AND MNETPDPMV1_BASICVAR.ModuleStatus.Out.GetModuleStatus=0 AND

4.5.6 Acyclic Messaging DFBs - Quantum

These following eleven sections provide information about the Derived Data Types (DDTs) and Variables associated with each of the ten (10) Derived Function Blocks (DFBs) created by the Application Communication Logic functions of ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) that can be used to send PROFIBUS DP-V1 acyclic messaging. Your application-specific control and sequencing logic will use these variables to activate these special functions, if required, as required, and receive any results that may be returned. The last item for each DFB topic is a breakdown of the PROFIBUS acyclic message structure. Creating these messages and handling the responses, if any, will all be done for you by the provided DFBs. Since each message has its own unique set of error codes, the primary reason for including this message structure information is to help you interpret any error codes you may receive as a result of activating one of these acyclic messages. The eleventh section contains acyclic message error code information.

DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Set Operating Mode - Quantum This command allows setting the operating mode of the PROFIBUS Master (STOP, CLEAR, or OPERATE). MNETDPV1_MAILVAR_SetOperatMode Variables - Quantum This variable structure is the one to use with your control and sequencing logic when you want to send a request to set the PROFIBUS Master/network operating mode. Possible choices are: Operate - Tells the PROFIBUS Master to begin and continue normal cyclic polling and pass acyclic messages, if requested. The network should be in STOP mode when you issue this command message. Stop - Tells the PROFIBUS Master to interrupt normal cyclic polling. Acyclic messaging can still be accomplished when the network is stopped. The network should be in OPERATE mode when you issue this command. Clear - Tells the PROFIBUS Master to attempt to clear diagnostic errors and re-initialize the PROFIBUS network. The network should be in STOP mode when you issue this command.

Variable Name Out - IPAddress[ ] Size/Type Description
4-element Each of the four integer elements holds one octet of the message destination device's IP Address. For this 16-bit Integer Array application, it will be the ProLinx gateway's Ethernet port address. 1 Single-Bit Boolean This is the bit your control and sequencing logic will use to trigger a message to tell the PROFIBUS Master to begin and continue normal network cyclic polling and acyclic messaging. Set this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active and you want to send this acyclic message. This is the bit your control and sequencing logic will use to trigger a message to tell the PROFIBUS Master to stop normal network cyclic polling. Some acyclic messaging can still be accomplished in this mode. Set this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active and you want to send this acyclic message. This is the bit your control and sequencing logic will use to trigger a message to tell the PROFIBUS Master to clear slave diagnostic faults and re-initialize the PROFIBUS network. Set this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active, the network mode is currently set to STOP, and you want to send this acyclic message. Default value for Quantum processors with built-in Ethernet port is 254 (16#FE00 hex) For details, see "MBP_MSTR, Ethernet (Quantum) - Control Block for TCP/IP Ethernet" in Quantum Help Files, or Quantum Communication Control and Data Buffer Variables and DDTs (page 136) The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP message has been initiated and is being processed. The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP response is not successfully received. When this bit is set, it indicates your control and sequencing logic should retry the command. The DFB will set this bit when the Modbus TCP/IP response is successfully received and the PROFIBUS cyclic input data variables have been updated.

DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Get Live List - Quantum This acyclic message returns 127 bytes of information about the nodes on the network. Each byte holds the node type for one bus subscriber (node or device). The position of the byte in the response data corresponds to the address (0 to 125) of the node on the network. The content of each byte tells whether the node is a Master or slave (multiple PROFIBUS Masters may co-exist on the same physical network). This acyclic message can be sent in all operation modes (STOP, CLEAR, and OPERATE); however, the gateway must be initialized properly. MNETDPV1_MAILVAR_GetLiveList Variables - Quantum This variable structure is the one to use with your control and sequencing logic when you want to request a list of PROFIBUS network nodes (bus subscribers).

NOTE: The MBP_MSTR function used on the Quantum platform has a lower data transfer limit than the DATA_EXCH function for the M340 platform. As a result, on the Quantum platform, the amount of data that can be transferred between a Quantum PAC and the ProLinx Gateway is 200 8-bit bytes (100 16-bit words) per message transaction. This limit is more than enough for most PROFIBUS DP message telegrams. However, there are a few PROFIBUS messages that could contain more data in the PROFIBUS response than can be sent to the Quantum processor using the MBP_MSTR function for Modbus TCP/IP. It such cases, the PROFIBUS data is truncated after the first 200 bytes, any PROFIBUS data beyond that limit will not be sent to the Quantum, and the excess data will be lost. The performance of this Get Slave Diagnostics mailbox message may be affected by this limitation. Please consult your device manufacture's documentation to see if any of your PROFIBUS DP slave devices provide more than 200 bytes of extended diagnostic data in per message.

DFB Acyclic Mailbox Message: Set Slave Mode - Quantum In addition to station-related user data transfer, which is executed automatically, the Master can send control acyclic messages to a single slave, a group of slaves, or all slaves simultaneously. These control acyclic messages are transmitted as multicast acyclic messages. This permits use of sync and freeze modes for event-controlled synchronization of the slaves. The slaves begin sync mode when they receive a sync acyclic message from their assigned Master. The outputs of all addressed slaves are then frozen in their current state. During subsequent user data transmissions, the output data is stored on the slaves, but the output states remain unchanged. The stored output data is not sent to the outputs until the next sync acyclic message is received. Sync mode is concluded with the unsync acyclic message. Similarly, a freeze control acyclic message causes the addressed slaves to assume freeze mode. In this operating mode, the states of the inputs are frozen until the Master sends the next freeze acyclic message. Freeze mode is concluded with the unfreeze acyclic message. Note 1: It is only possible to send Sync and Freeze control acyclic messages when operating mode is either CLEAR or OPERATE. Note 2: Not all slaves support this feature. Refer to the documentation for the actual slave for more information. For additional details, see Set Slave Mode Message Structure (page 196).

Set this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active and you want to send this acyclic message. Each of the four integer elements holds one octet of the message destination device's IP Address. For this application, it will be the the ProLinx gateway's Ethernet port address. Valid entries 0 - 125 Enter the node address of the slave device from which you wish to receive Acyclic Data. Valid entries 0 - n (where 'n' is the highest configured slot number on the target slave address - depends on device configuration) Enter the slot number on the target node from which you wish to retrieve the acyclic data. See slave device manufacturer for valid entries. This parameter is used to address the desired data block in the target slave. See slave device manufacturer for valid entries. Maximum value is 200 bytes. See NOTE below. This parameter specifies the number of bytes of the data block that has to be read. If the slave data block length is less than requested, the length of the response will be the actual length of the data block. If the slave data block is greater or equal, then the response will contain the same amount of data. Default value for Quantum processors with built-in Ethernet port is 254 (16#FE00 hex) For details, see "MBP_MSTR, Ethernet (Quantum) - Control Block for TCP/IP Ethernet" in Quantum Help Files, or Quantum Communication Control and Data Buffer Variables and DDTs (page 136) If 'Fault' contains error code 0010h, more information can be found here. For information on how to interpret these values, refer to the slave device manufacturer's documentation, or the EN50170 (DP-V1) protocol specification. If 'Fault' contains error code 0010h, more information can be found here.

NOTE: The MBP_MSTR function used on the Quantum platform has a lower data transfer limit than the DATA_EXCH function for the M340 platform. As a result, on the Quantum platform, the amount of data that can be transferred between a Quantum PAC and the ProLinx Gateway is 200 8-bit bytes (100 16-bit words) per message transaction. This limit is more than enough for most PROFIBUS DP message telegrams. However, there are a few PROFIBUS messages that could contain more data in the PROFIBUS response than can be sent to the Quantum processor using the MBP_MSTR funcution for Modbus TCP/IP. It such cases, the PROFIBUS data is truncated after the first 200 bytes, any PROFIBUS data beyond that limit will not be sent to the Quantum, and the excess data will be lost. The performance of this Read Class 1 Acyclic mailbox message may be affected by this limitation. Please consult your device manufacture's documentation to see if any of your PROFIBUS DP slave devices provide more than 200 bytes of acyclic read data per message.

PROFIBUS comDTM
DTM (Device Type Manager) is a standard way to provide all necessary data and functionality for a communication device, for example a PROFIBUS DP card. This technology is similar to the way Microsoft Windows supports printer drivers supplied by manufacturers and available to any Windows application, rather than requiring a custom printer driver for each specific application. PROFIBUS comDTM, distributed by ProSoft Technology, is a DTM for PTQ and MVI series PDPMV1 modules and ProLinx PDPMV1 gateways. Configuration is available through Ethernet for the PTQ and ProLinx series PDPMV1, and through RS-232 serial for the MVI series PDPMV1 modules. Ethernet configuration is also available through the CIPConnect feature for the MVI56-PDPMV1 modules (see Note), with the addition of the 1756-ENBT module installed in the same ControlLogix rack. PROFIBUS comDTM allows configuration tools, instruments, and communication devices on a field network to recognize and use the module's capabilities. Communication Channels Supported
Serial Product MVI56-PDPMV1 MVI69-PDPMV1 PTQ-PDPMV1 ProLinx PDPMV1 Local RS-232 Port Supported Supported Supported Supported Ethernet Local Ethernet Port 1756 ENBT Supported (see note)
Note: MVI56-PDPMV1 requires firmware version 1.28.000 or later to support CIPConnect ENABLED PC programs (1756-ENBT support). The 1756-ENBT card must be located in the same rack as the MVI56-PDPMV1 (bridging through different racks is not supported). This functionality requires comDTM version 1.0.1.5 with install version 1.01.0003. For information on how to check the comDTM version and install version, refer to Verifying the comDTM Version and comDTM Install Version (page 224).

4.8.2 Introduction to PROFIBUS comDTM

Why Use PROFIBUS comDTM? Customers from around the world have different machines, fieldbusses, and other end-user equipment. Each is equipped with the field bus requested by their end-user. Since there are so many variations, the automation solution in their standard machine ends up being different from case to case. This means that service engineers need to have different configuration tools for every fieldbus. Or maybe even one for every device. You want one, but the reality is you have many. This is where PROFIBUS comDTM can help with configuring and communicating with different networks, products and suppliers.
What is FDT? FDT (Field Device Tool) is the specification for software interfaces for the integration of field devices, drives, and controls in engineering and configuration tools. FDT is manufacturer-independent and allows for trouble-free parameterization and configuration of the user's specific processing system. FDT technology standardizes the communication interface between field devices and systems. The key feature is its independence from the communication protocol and the software environment of either the device or the host system. FDT allows any device to be accessed from any host through any protocol. The FDT container implements the FDT specification. It serves as an interface between FDT and a superior application. It uses the DTMs to gain access to the devices. FDT frame application is an engineering or configuration tool which has an FDT container. FDT technology comprises three key components: the Frame Application, Device DTMs, and Communication DTMs. The DTM (Device Type Manager) is used for the configuration and maintenance of field devices, drives and so on. It is only functional with an FDT container. The FDT container implements the FDT specification. It serves as interface between FDT and a superior application. It uses the DTMs to gain access to devices. FDT frame application is an engineering or configuration tool that has an FDT container. The user interface of the DTMs is displayed here. To better understand the functionality of these components, consider the analogy of the Internet - a standard web browser allows users to view countless web pages created by many content providers. The host system supplier typically creates the Frame Application, just as Microsoft supplies the Internet Explorer web browser. Just as a web browser opens a web page that contains code from the company that makes the web page, an FDT frame opens the Device DTM, which is the plug-in software from the device vendor.
Page 212 of 245
Similar to a web browser, the Frame Application has menu bars, toolbars, and a navigation tree. Visually, the frame application surrounds the device vendors DTM. Like opening a web page from a favorites' navigation tree, a user can navigate down a tree that lists the field device tags, click on one, and open the device vendors DTM inside the frame. And, like web pages that let users interact with a reservation system or a shopping service, the Device DTMs let the user interact with the field device in a wide variety of ways. The Device DTM vendor can create a graphically rich user interface that does virtually anything possible in an advanced Windows PC-type interface. The third part of the technology, the Communication DTM, provides a standardized communication Application Process Interface (API) inside the PC, interfacing between the Device Vendors DTM and the host systems specific driver that handles pass-through communications from the PC down to the fieldbus interface card. The host system vendor supplies a Communication DTM (comDTM) for each supported fieldbus protocol. This ensures that the details of the PC, network, interface cards, and pass-through protocols of the host system, are transparent to the device vendors DTM. This correlates back to the internet analogy where: the web page is transparent to the PC its running in, the brand of the network interface card in the PC, or whether communication is DSL or broadband cable. FDT technology complements and expands existing device description languages. It does not replace but rather builds upon existing DDs. In particular, FDT expands the capabilities of DD for complex devices. Device Description languages have limitations in the graphical representation of the device at the user interface and allow only a limited integration of special features. FDT/DTM removes these limitations. Typical frame applications are Pactware from The PACTware Consortium e.V (freeware) FieldCare from Endress & Hauser Field Control from ABB

What is PROFIBUS? PROFIBUS (Process Field Bus) is a widely-used, open-standards protocol created by a consortium of European factory automation suppliers in 1989. PROFIBUS is a Master/slave protocol. The Master establishes a connection to the remote slave. When the connection is established, the Master sends the PROFIBUS commands to the slave. PROFIBUS supports a variety of network types. The network type supported by the PTQ and MVI series PROFIBUS modules is PROFIBUS DP (Device Bus) version 1.0, which is designed for remote I/O systems, motor control centers, and variable speed drives.

4.8.3 System Requirements

Confirm that your system meets the following hardware and software requirements before you start the installation.
Hardware Requirements (Recommended) Pentium 4 processor rated for at least 2 GHz 450 MB hard drive space for DTM Libraries Video card capable of 1024 X 768 resolution at 64k colors Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC) One of the following ProSoft Technology PROFIBUS DPV1 Master modules: o ProLinx PDPMV1 Ethernet only, serial port not supported o PTQ-PDPMV1 Ethernet only, serial port not supported o MVI series PDPMV1 RS232 serial o MVI56-PDPMV1 (with 1756-ENBT for Ethernet support) Note for PTQ Users: The Ethernet connection implements UDP protocol, which dynamically allocates a random UDP port for every connection. This implementation limits the possibility of using most serial to Ethernet converters to access the PDPMV1 serial port through an Ethernet connection. Several Ethernet to serial converters require the configuration of a fixed UDP port, which is not available for the current implementation.
Software Requirements (Minimum) Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 6A, Windows 2000 SP3 or Windows XP Professional SP2, or better Microsoft Internet Explorer Version 6.0, or better FDT 1.2.1 compliant FDT frame application. Compatible applications include: o PACTware o FieldCare o M&M fdtCONTAINER Some FDT Containers require the following components: Microsoft Management Console Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0, or better
