In general, the Configuration User Interface for the Generic Slave Device DTM contains three tabs.
Above these tabs the Device, the Manufacturer, the GSD file and the Unit's PROFIBUS Ident num-
ber are displayed.
The three tabs allow the user to set the slave parameters and configure the I/O for a standard PRO-
FIBUS DP slave device. For slave devices which support the extension PROFIBUS DP-V1, two
additional tabs will be displayed. These tabs are discussed later.
Configuration Tab
The Configuration tab contains the Device settings and the I/O module configuration.
 Device Settings
The Device Settings contain the device address, i.e. the Unit's PROFIBUS address and the Watch-
dog time for the Unit. The device address is normally set automatically by the Master DTM, when
the slave DTM is added to its tree. However, the user has the opportunity to change the address.
The changed address will be transferred to the Master DTM.
Note In case a changed address is invalid, for example if there is already another slave device
with the same new address, the Master DTM will set the number back to its old value. The
Watchdog value is the value used by the slave device to monitor communication from the
Master Unit. If no messages are sent to the slave by its Master within the Watchdog timeout
time, the slave device will stop data exchange and switch back to the fail safe mode.
Note In the current version of CX-ConfiguratorFDT, the Watchdog setting made in the Generic
Slave DTM is overruled by the Watchdog setting in the Master DTM (refer to section Setting
the Bus Parameters on page 19).
 Module Configuration
The I/O module configuration defines the I/O Data which the slave will be exchanging with the Mas-
ter Unit, when it is in data exchange mode. The upper window in the Configuration tab contains all
possible modules, which are in the GSD file. The lower window holds all selected I/O modules.
The user has to select the modules, which are associated with the physical configuration of the
slave device. Selecting, i.e. copying the module from the upper window to the lower window can be
done in several ways.
• Double-click the left mouse button on the selected module in the upper window.
• Select the module in the upper window and click the Insert button or Append button. Insert
will insert the module above the row selected in the lower window. Append will add the mod-
ule to the end of the selected module list.
1
The user can select multiple rows (in both windows) by simultaneously holding the SHIFT or
CTRL key on the keyboard and selecting the rows using the left mouse button.
2
The amount of I/O modules and data which can be selected depends on the slave device. The
four rows of information above the module display the maximum amounts as well as the
selected totals.
Removing one or more selected modules from the list is done by
• double-clicking the left mouse button on the module in the lower window.
• selecting the module in the lower window and click the Remove button. In this case selecting
multiple modules is also possible.
