Monitor/Modify, programming via PROFIBUS
As an alternative to the MPI, you can use the PROFIBUS DP interface to program the CPU
or execute the Monitor/Modify programming device functions.
NOTICE
The "Programming" or "Monitor/Modify" applications prolong the DP cycle if executed via
the PROFIBUS DP interface.
DP master system startup
Use the following parameters to set startup time monitoring of the PROFIBUS DP master:
●
Ready message from module
●
Transfer of parameters to modules
This means the DP slaves must start up within the set time and be parameterized by the
CPU (as PROFIBUS DP master).
PROFIBUS address of the PROFIBUS DP master
All PROFIBUS addresses are permissible.
From IEC 61158 to DPV1
The IEC 61158 standard for distributed I/Os has been enhanced. The enhancements were
incorporated into IEC 61158/IEC 61784–1:2002 Ed1 CP 3/1. The SIMATIC documentation
uses the term "DPV1" in this context. The new version features various expansions and
simplifications.
SIEMENS automation components feature DPV1 functionality. In order to be able to use
these new features, you first have to make some modifications to your system. A full
description of the migration from IEC 61158 to DPV1 is available in the FAQ section titled
"Migrating from IEC 61158 to DPV1", FAQ entry ID 7027576, on the Customer Support
Internet site.
Components supporting PROFIBUS DPV1 functionality
DPV1 master
●
The S7-400 CPUs with integrated DP interface.
●
CP 443-5 with order number 6GK7 443–5DX03–0XE0,
6GK7 443–5DX04–0XE0, 6GK7 443-5DX05-0XE0.
DPV1 slaves (default setting in SIMATIC)
●
DP slaves listed in the STEP 7 hardware catalog under their family names can be
identified as DPV1 slaves in the information text.
●
DP slaves that are integrated in STEP 7 by means of GSD files, revision 3 or higher.
