Setting the PROFIBUS address
There are two ways to set the PROFIBUS address:
1. Via p0918
– To set the bus address for a PROFIBUS node using STARTER, first set the rotary
– Then use parameter p0918 to set the address to a value between 1 and 126.
2. Via the PROFIBUS address switches on the Control Unit
– The address is set manually to values between 1 and 126 using the rotary coding
Note
The rotary coding switches used to set the PROFIBUS address are located beneath the
cover.

Cyclic communication is not (yet) running.
Note:
The PROFIdrive is ready for communication when the Control Unit is ready for opera-
tion (see LED RDY).
Cyclic communication is taking place.
Cyclic communication has still not been fully established.
Possible causes:
- The controller is not transmitting any setpoints.
- In isochronous mode, the controller did not send a Global Control or it sent a defec-
tive Global Control (GC).
PROFIBUS master is sending incorrect parameter assignment/configuration
Cyclic bus communication has been interrupted or could not be established.
