Feature of ID number adaptation acc. to PROFIBUS PA Profile 3.02 added. It allows a K 1.15 Type 3785 Positioner (Profile 2.0 and Profile 3.0) to be directly replaced with a Type 3730-4 Positioner in the compatability mode (see page 87). K 1.16 The function to suppress extended diagnostic messages allows messages for the PROFIBUS diagnosis protocol to be suppressed.
