Parameter
Description
Instance Name
This parameter is a user defined name to identify between various PLX51-
PBM modules.
Description
This parameter is used to provide a more detail description of the application
for the module.
IP Address
The IP address of the module.
Mode
The PLX51-PBM can operate in one of three modes:
Quiet
This mode allows the user to connect the PLX51-PBM to an active bus and
run a DP packet capture. In this mode the PLX51-PBM will not communicate
on the DP Bus but rather only listen.
Standalone Master
In this mode the PLX51-PBM is the DP Master on the PROFIBUS network.
Slave
In this mode the PLX51-PBM will emulate multiple PROFIBUS Slave
devices.
Primary Interface
This is the network the PLX51-PBM will interface the PROFIBUS network.
EtherNet/IP (Logix)
