PTQ-PDPMV1 ♦ Quantum Platform
PROFIBUS DP Master Network Interface Module for Quantum
9.3 PROFIBUS comDTM
DTM (Device Type Manager) is a standard way to provide all necessary data and
functionality for a communication device, for example a PROFIBUS DP card.
This technology is similar to the way Microsoft Windows supports printer drivers
supplied by manufacturers and available to any Windows application, rather than
requiring a custom printer driver for each specific application.
PROFIBUS comDTM, distributed by ProSoft Technology, is a DTM for PTQ and
MVI series PDPMV1 modules and ProLinx PDPMV1 gateways. Configuration is
available through Ethernet for the PTQ and ProLinx series PDPMV1, and through
RS-232 serial for the MVI series PDPMV1 modules. Ethernet configuration is
also available through the CIPConnect
MVI69-PDPMV1 modules (see note).
PROFIBUS comDTM allows configuration tools, instruments, and communication
devices on a field network to recognize and use the module's capabilities.

Note: MVI56-PDPMV1 requires firmware version 1.28.000 or later to support CIPconnect-enabled
PC programs (1756-ENBT support). The 1756-ENBT card must be located in the same rack as the
MVI56-PDPMV1. Bridging through multiple racks is not supported by the comDTM software.
MVI69-PDPMV1 requires firmware version 1.37.002 or later to support CIPconnect through the
Ethernet port to L32E and L35E CompactLogix processors.
Note: This functionality requires comDTM version 1.0.1.5 with install version 1.01.0003. For
information on how to check the comDTM version and install version, refer to Verifying the
comDTM Version and comDTM Install Version (page 273).
