Setting up the SPI 3
In order to set up the SPI 3, you need to configure it, set the parameters and install the
function blocks in your PLC programming software.
When configuring the SPI 3 from the DP master using a commercially-available PROFI-
BUS configurator program, refer to the on-line help for information on specifying the pa-
rameters. Since there are a large number of different PROFIBUS configurators on the
market, it is only possible to give a general overview of the process of configuration and
parameter setting:
– Start the PROFIBUS configurator on the DP master.
– Insert the diskette with the device database files (GSD) into the diskette drive of the
programming device (usually a PC).
– Load the SPI 3 GSD file THDP0091.GSD in the configurator.
– Configure the SPI 3 and set the parameters as described in the configurator’s online
help or user manual.
Note!
If you do not want to use a PROFIBUS configurator program, you need to create
your own configuration and/or parameter telegram. See »Creating a configura-
tion telegram« on page 27 for more information.
