The data exchange between the DP master and the DP slave is performed
in a cycle using send and receive buffers.

PE: Process picture of the inputs
PA: Process picture of the outputs
In one V-bus cycle (i.e. backplane bus) all input data of the single modules
are collected in the PE and all output data from the PA are transferred to
the output modules. After the data exchange is completed, the PE is
transferred to the sending buffer (buffer send) and the content of the input
buffer (buffer receive) is transferred to PA.
In one Profibus cycle the master contacts all its slaves with a data ex-
change. There the memory areas assigned to the Profibus are written resp.
read.
Afterwards the DP master transmits data of the input area to the receive
buffer of the communication processor and the data of the send buffer is
transferred into the Profibus output area.
The DP master to DP slave data exchange on the bus is repeated cyclically
and does not depend on the V-bus cycle.
