CX-Profibus provides network tree view, from which hierarchy between
Master and slave devices can clearly be distinguished.
The following network functions are available:
• Network DTMs (i.e. devices) can be added or deleted, using drag and
drop from the Device Catalogue.
• Network DTMs can be copied and moved from one location to
another in the network view.
• DTM names can be edited by the user.
• Any change to the parameters of a DTM is clearly marked in the tree
view, until the project is downloaded to the Master Unit.
The Device Catalogue maintains the installed device DTMs. After instal-
lation of a new DTM, the user must refresh the database. The Device
Catalogue provides the following functions:
• Update Device Catalogue.
• Add device DTMs to the network directly.
• Install a GSD file. This function allows copying of GSD files to a spe-
cific directory, after which they are available for the Generic Slave
DTM.
CX-Profibus provides the following additional support functions:
• Context sensitive help functions.
• Error logging.
• Monitoring of FDT communication between DTMs.
• Multi-language support.
