Configuring a DP Connection

Introduction
Assigning Parame-
ters to the CP 541
Step
1
Load DB1 into the programmer.
2
Enter the station number of the CP 541 with
parameter TLN in frame SL2.
3
Pure DP connection:
Assign the value PAS to parameter STA.
Mixed mode:
Assign the value AKT (default value) to pa-
rameter STA.
4
Remove the comment parentheses from
frame DPS.
5
Enter in parameter NWI the number of data
words from the DP master to the CP 541 (see
Appendix C).
6
Enter in parameter NWO the number of data
words from the CP 541 to the DP master (see
Appendix C).
7
Write the modified DB1 into the CP 541.
8
Switch the CP 541 to RUN.
4-4
You have a choice of two configurations for the DP connection. You can op-
tionally operate the CP 541 purely as a DP slave or in mixed mode with a
PLC-PLC connection and broadcast.
You assign parameters for the DP connection via the CP 541 as shown in the
following table.
Action
Remark
The station number of the CP 541 must be
identical to the node address of the con-
nected PLC.
With STA = PAS, the CP 541 becomes
purely a DP slave. SINEC L2-DP is thus
speeded up.
With STA = AKT, the CP 541 allows PLC-
PLC connection, broadcast and DP connec-
tion.
For the change in frame DPS to become ef-
fective, you must remove the comment pa-
rentheses.
With the DP connection, you must always
keep to the entered value.
NWI and NWO must not simultaneously be
NWI and NWO must not simultaneously be
0.
Only upon a transition from STOP to RUN
will the changed DB1 be stored in EEPROM
of the CP 541.
