Configuring the PCD3.T76x with the Web Server
The I/Os on the PCD3.T76x are normally configured in the Profibus Configurator for
the Master PCD. The configuration details for the PCD3.T76x in the Master PCD are
loaded into the PCD3.T76x when communication is started up.
However, it is also possible to configure the I/Os for the PCD3.T76x directly with the
web server. This function is mainly used when commissioning an installation, where
the Master PCD is not yet connected.
This configuration is not possible in Monitoring mode.
This is the Configuration tab. On the left-hand side is the directory tree, and on the
right a list showing all the module positions on the PCD3.T76x. This can be used to
insert, remove and parameterize the modules. The configuration can then be loaded
into the PCD3.T76x; see section on “Command buttons”. A configuration can also be
uploaded, modified and then downloaded again.
Add module
Select module and hold down the left mouse button to drag it to the desired module
position.
Remove module
Select module from the list and press “Delete” on the keyboard.
Set parameters for a module
Some modules have more functionality than others and need to be configured
accordingly. This applies especially to analogue modules that are able to read in
values in different formats, e.g. temperature for Pt1000, Ni1000, Pt100, Ni100, S7
format, etc.
To enter parameters, double-click on the module, or select the module and press
“Enter” on the keyboard. This is the screen to parameterize a PCD3.W500 module.
