Service Access Point (SAP) and
PROFIBUS Services
You do not necessarily require information on the service access points to
work with the CP 541. You can specify a service access point for broadcast
with parameter BSAP in frame COM of DB1.
The PROFIBUS services used by the CP 541 are given in Table G-2.
This chapter is intended for the bus specialist wanting more detail on the in-
ternal data transmission process on SINEC L2.
A message on SINEC L2 is identified and read in by the intended receiving
station, by means of the station number carried with the message. To reach its
destination, another parameter, the service access point (SAP) is specified in
the message.
The CP 541 handles the entering of station number and SAP for you. You can
adjust the SAP for broadcast to your bus in DB1.
The intended SAPs in the CP 541 are shown in Table G-1.
