Hardware Configuration

Anybus module settings

Anybus Slave:
The address setting is achieved with the two rotary switches on the Anybus Slave module. However
in some applications the application interface is used to set the addresses with software. The
address is set to 11 in this example.
The Anybus Slave Interface also has a terminating switch.
The terminating switch should be set to "ON" if:
•
o The module is the last node on the network => physical end of the bus.
o No other termination is used at this end of the network.
• The terminating switch should be set to "OFF" if:
o There are other nodes on both sides of the module in the network.
o The module is the last node on the network and a PROFIBUS D-SUB connector is
used which is equipped with a built in and activated termination.

Note: The PROFIBUS network must always be terminated at both ends.
This assumes that the Profibus node address is going to be node 11 if the node number needs to be
different due to integration to an existing system change the node address in the S7 project and
alter the switches to suit.
