[PROFIBUS Master] .............................................................................. 43
[PROFIBUS Master Commands] ........................................................... 45
The following is excerpted from a configuration file showing typical examples of
the PROFIBUS Master Port and PROFIBUS Master Command sections of a
CFG file for a PDPM port. Shipped with each unit (or available from the web) is a
default configuration file that can easily form the basis for a working solution. This
file can either be downloaded from the ProSoft web site at
www.prosoft-technology.com, or transferred from the module.
