bus directory.
3. After completing the copy, a window will be displayed, asking the user per-
mission for an update of the Device Catalogue (see figure below). If more
GSD files need to be installed, select the No button and continue with in-
stallation of GSD file. Otherwise, select the Yes button.
Note Updating the Device Catalogue may take several minutes, depending on the
number of installed GSD files.
If the Device Catalogue is up to date, it can be used to setup the network. Set-
ting up a network in CX-Profibus starts with adding single device DTMs to the
Network view. First the CS1/CJ1W-PRM21 Master DTM must be added to the
main branch of the project Network. To do so, one of three procedures as out-
lined below must be used to add the DTM.
1. Select the top of the network to which the DTM must be added, i.e. select
MyNetwork in the Network view.
2. Right click the mouse and a context menu will be displayed.
3. From the menu select Add Device.
4. A simplified Device Catalogue is displayed. The list only contains the de-
vices which can be inserted at the selected network location (see figure be-
low, only Master devices are listed).
5. From the displayed list, select the device DTM to be added and select the
OK button. The Device DTM will be added to the network.
