Parameterizing the MPI interface (X102) (optional)
The interface X102 needs to be networked only with MPI, if the interface is not networked
with PROFIBUS.
When you have completed the "Properties - PROFIBUS DP Interface" dialog box (see
previous Subsection "Parameterizing the PROFIBUS interface (X101)" (Page 165)) the
840Di sl Rack is displayed in the Station window.
To parameterize the MPI interface you will have to make the following parameter settings:
●
Interface type
●
Transmission rate
By double-clicking the module
MPI/DP, slot X1 in the 840Di sl-rack, open the properties
dialog of MPI/DP.
