4.1. Configuration via PROFIBUS Using a PROFIBUS Class 2
Master
The following section describes the connection of the PROFIBUS class 2 master
(e.g., Softing PROFIusb). Note whether your remote I/O station is an LB or FB
system:
LB System: Connection Remote I/O System to Siemens SPS via PROFIBUS
Supply
Extension
FB System: Connection Remote I/O System to Siemens SPS via PROFIBUS
Supply
Connect your PC directly to the bus line via the class 2 master (either to the
backplane [in the case of an LB system only]—here the interface is marked
with X4—or to the PLC).
The class 2 master that is used requires the appropriate driver software. This
is usually installed automatically after the class 2 master is connected. In the
case of the Softing PROFIusb, this is included in the delivery. If necessary, the
driver can be subsequently obtained from the Download Center:

Once the appropriate driver has been installed and the selected component
has been connected, the parameterization of the remote I/O station using
PACTware can be continued.
