diagnostic block of the diagnostic frame.
8.2
Start-up characteristics
Prerequisites for starting up the IM 157
S A valid PROFIBUS address must be set on the IM 157.
S The DP master on the higher level PROFIBUS-DP must be in operation.
S The link must be configured correctly.
The further behavior of the DP/PA link depends on whether it is in redundant or
non-redundant operation.
8.2.1
Start-up behavior of the DP/PA link in non-redundant operation
The flow chart below shows the start-up behavior of the IM 157 after the power is
switched on.
8-2
The output data is issued by the link if...
S
All slaves are parameterized and configured, or
S
The startup delay has expired and fewer slaves
were parameterized/configured than planned.
S
All the slaves are parameterized and configured.
Note:
If not all slaves are configured or parameterized within
the power-up delay time, the link automatically repeats
start-up.
