Section 3 System Configuration 3-1 Limits on Mounting 3-1-1 Mounting position To use a PROFIBUS-DP master module (type: NP1L-PD1) and a PROFIBUS-DP slave module (type: NP1L-PS1), the modules need to be connected to the SX bus of MICREX-SX series SPH. They may be mounted at any location on a base board that is directly connected to the SX bus, but cannot be mounted on the OPCN-1, DeviceNet, T-link or other remote I/O base board.
Section 3 System Configuration 3-1 Limits on Mounting 3-1-2 Number of mountable modules (1) Limit on the number of mountable I/O master or slave modules Maximum eight NP1L-PD1 modules or NP1L-PS1 modules can be connected for one configuration. However, when T-link, OPCN-1, DeviceNet or other I/O master module or slave module is connected, the maximum number of mountable modules is eight including (Number of mounted NP1L-PD1 module) + (Number of mounted NP1L-PS1 modules)
Section 3 System Configuration 3-2 Registration of System Configuration For MICREX-SX systems, basically all the modules and units that are used for one configuration need to be registered in the system configuration definition. However, when a PROFIBUS-DP system is included in an SX system, only the NP1L-PD1 modules that are used as master are registered in the system configuration definition of D300win, while the PROFIBUS-DP slave stations that are connected to NP1L-PD1 are registered using a commercially available software called "configurator".
Page 24
Section 3 System Configuration 3-2 Registration of System Configuration On the system configuration registration screen, select NP1L-PD1 and click the [Properties] button. The [Module properties] dialog box for NP1L-PD1 is displayed. Click here. Click the [Parameter...] button on the [Module properties] dialog box, and the [PROFIBUS-DP master parameter setting] dialog box will be displayed.
Section 3 System Configuration 3-2 Registration of System Configuration 3-2-2 Registration of PROFIBUS-DP configuration The configuration data of the PROFIBUS-DP stations that has been set with a configurator is downloaded directly to the nonvolatile memory of the NP1L-PD1 module. Note: For the using method of configurator (CONF-PDP), refer to the corresponding instruction manual. (1) Procedure for registering PROFIBUS-DP configuration to NP1L-PD1 1) System configuration is defined with the loader.
Page 26
Section 3 System Configuration 3-2 Registration of System Configuration (2) Handling of NP1L-PD1 with the configurator When a configurator is used, NP1L-PD1 needs to be registered as PROFIBUS-DP master. Select [Insert] from the menu bar of the configurator (SYCON) and execute [Master] in the [Insert] menu to display the [Insert Master] window.
Section 3 System Configuration 3-3 Assignment of Input / Output Address 3-3-1 Rules for address assignment PROFIBUS-DP slave devices are allocated to the I/O area, like the I/O modules directly connected to SX bus. The rules for assigning addresses are as follows: <D300win>...
Page 28
Section 3 System Configuration 3-3 Assignment of Input / Output Address (2) Address table of the configurator The address table for the sample system configuration shown in above (1) becomes as follows. In this example, slave 1 and slave 2 are the units that have 16 input points while slave 3 is the unit that has 16 input points and 32 output points. It is necessary to assign an address viewed from SX_CPU for each slave station according to the address table for the configurator.
Section 3 System Configuration 3-4 PROFIBUS-DP Slave System I/O data (total number of I/O words: max.128) can be exchanged with a PLC system from other manufacturers which have the PROFIBUS-DP master function or the SPH system with a PROFIBUS-DP master module. 3-4-1 Example of slave system configuration The I/O assignment of the PROFIBUS-DP slave system is explained below taking the MICREX-SX system as an example.
Section 3 System Configuration 3-4 PROFIBUS-DP Slave System 3-4-2 Setting on master station side For the setting procedure on the master station side, the method of the registration with a configurator is explained below taking the case where the MICREX-SX system (NP1L-PD1 is the master) is the master as an example. On the master side, the registration of slave stations and the number of words are set.

Section 3 System Configuration 3-4 PROFIBUS-DP Slave System (2) Setting of the number of Input/Output words Set the number of the words which are occupied by the PROFIBUS-DP slave module. This number of words of the slave module becomes the number of words for data communication between the master station and the slave station.

Section 3 System Configuration 3-4 PROFIBUS-DP Slave System Set the fail-soft operation of the PROFIBUS-DP slave module. Click the [Fail-Soft Operation Setting] tag on the [CPU parameter] dialog box and perform registration as shown below. Note: If the fail-soft operation of the PROFIBUS-DP slave module is not set and communication with the master station stops due to disconnection of the master station or power-cut, the operation of the whole slave system stop as a communication error.
Section 4 Wiring 4-1 Connector and Cable to Use For connecting to the NP1L-PD1 and NP1L-PS1, select proper connector and cable, referring to the figure below. Inch screw (#4-40) Cable Use commercially available cable for PROFIBUS-DP (shielded twisted-pair cable) Connector Use commercially available D-sub 9-pin (male) connector.
Section 4 Wiring 4-2 D-sub 9-pin Connector Internal Wiring The inside of D-sub 9-pin connector shall be wired as follows: Connector Pin No. Line B (red) Line A (green) PROFIBUS-DP dedicated cable Shield 4-3 NP1L-PD1/PS1 Connecting Point When commercially available D-sub 9-pin connector is used, it is recommended that NP1L-PD1 be connected to PROFIBUS- DP at cable end.
