  • Page 68: Mailbox Messaging

    Protocol Manual Mailbox Messaging The PDPMV1 PROFIBUS DP Master uses a process called Mailbox Messaging to exchange parameter data between the processor, Master, and slave devices. This process provides a way to encapsulate and prioritize commands and data sent between the PROFIBUS Master and slaves.

  • Page 69: Mailbox Message Queuing

    3.1.1 Queue Timeouts The PDPMV1 gateway will only allow a message to stay in a queue for up to 10 seconds. If the PROFIBUS Master (for output messages) or the processor (for input and alarm messages) has not successfully received a message within 10 seconds, the gateway will clear the message out of the queue.

    The provided Function Blocks simplify the processor logic required to implement these messaging mailbox exchanges. Sending a mailbox message to the PDPMV1 gateway is a relatively simple process, however, it is important to follow a certain sequence. ProSoft Technology, Inc.
