Commissioning via the PROFIBUS
10.4.1
General information
The BCL 504
i
is designed as a PROFIBUS slave device. The functionality of the device is
defined via parameter sets which are clustered in modules. The modules are included in a
GSD file, which is supplied as an integral part of the device. By using a user-specific config-
uration tool, such as, e.g., Simatic Manager for the programmable logic control by Siemens,
the required modules are integrated into a project during commissioning and its settings and
parameters are adjusted accordingly. These modules are provided by the GSD file.
Notice!
All input and output modules described in this documentation are described from the con-
troller's perspective:
- Input data arrives at the controller.
- Output data is sent out by the controller.
10.4.2
Preparing the control system for consistent data transmission
During programming the control system must be prepared for the consistent data transmis-
sion. This varies from control system to control system. The following possibilities are avail-
able for the Siemens control systems.

The specific function blocks
SFC 14
for input data and
SFC 15
for output data must be inte-
grated in the program. These are standard function blocks and are used to facilitate
consistent data transmission.
