Result
You have now increased the configured
transmission speed of the MPI interface at
the CPU in order to accelerate data transfer.
The "Select node address" dialog box
opens.
The default transmission rate of the MPI
interface is 187 kbps, i.e. the PG/PC
interfaces must be set up as described
earlier in the requirements section.
The data are now downloaded from the
PG/PC to the CPU.
Result
The "Properties – DP(DRIVE)" dialog box
opens.
The "Properties – PROFIBUS interface
DP(DRIVE)" dialog box opens.
The "Properties – New PROFIBUS subnet"
dialog box opens.
