Procedure Description

To start the hardware configuration of the IO device you have first to import or to
install the GSD file (see also section "GSD file") into the engineering software of
the IOC. The GSD file contains all properties of the fieldbus coupler and the
I/O modules to perform e.g. the configuration and parameterization of the
IO device.
First, configure the fieldbus node that defines the structure of the process image
for the input and output data.
The size of the process images is determined by the sum of all configured
modules or submodules input and output data. The content of the process images
is exchanged in productive data traffic with the IO controller.
To create the configuration data, transfer the physical structure of the station to
the configuration software. The fieldbus coupler and each related I/O module are
available in the hardware catalog of the configuration software as a module entry.
For the various entries of the I/O module types, you can select different data
representations in terms of submodule types for digital, analog and to an certain
extend for complex I/O modules.
By specifically selecting suitable submodule types for the digital I/O modules,
you have the option of optimizing the structure of the process images for the input
and output data. The flexible configuration of the digital I/O modules is described
in the section "Flexible Configuration of the I/O Modules".
For a station consisting of the fieldbus coupler and the connected I/O modules,
arrange the I/O modules in the configuration software according to the physical
slot.
The position and slot assignment of passive I/O modules that provide no data are
not taken into account here.
If the configured arrangement differs from the physical arrangement, e.g. wrong
modules or submodules or missing modules or submodules at the end of the
fieldbus node, the fieldbus coupler reports the difference as an error.
The error is also indicated by the "DIA" LED.
Subsequent to the configuration of the IO device you have to do the
parameterization of the fieldbus coupler as station proxy and the connected
I/O modules where applicable.
As part of the parameterization, you can make specific settings for the attributes
for each configured submodule that carries parameterization data.
Details about parameterization the station proxy and I/O modules, as well as
parameter descriptions are available in the section "Parameterization".
In engineering the network topology known if you want to use the device
replacement with renewed station name assignment through appropriate tools.
The prerequisite for this functionality, that the DIP switch is not used for the
purpose of station name assignment.
After saving the project you upload the configuration data to IOC.
