3 Device description / start-up
3.1 PNO identification number
The encoder has the PNO ID number AAAB (hex). This number is reserved and filed
with the PNO.
3.2 PNO certificate
The encoder has passed a certification test by an independent test laboratory of the
Profibus User Organization and is certified under the number Z00319. The relevant
documents are held by TR Electronic and the PNO.
3.3 PNO encoder profile
The Profibus User Organization has issued an encoder profile defining the structure of
an encoder on the Profibus. A copy of this profile can be obtained for a fee from the
PNO office. Details of prices are available exclusively by the Profibus User
Organization.
3.4 Operating requirements
Theoretically, the encoder can be connected to any Profibus-DP network, provided
the PROFIBUS-DP master is capable of transmitting a parameter message. Similarly,
the configuration software should be able to display the parameter structure specified
in the device master file in order to allow the parameters to be entered. If this is not
the case, the encoder cannot be programmed and runs on the bus with the maximum
resolution, and without the possibility of scaling or adjustment as Class-1 encoder.
TR Electronic supplies a Software/Support CD containing the device master file
(.GSD) and a type file (.200) for users with SIEMENS masters. If the CD is not
enclosed with this documentation, it can be purchased by order number: 490-01001,
Soft-No.: 490-00406.
For details of how to integrate the encoder into the interface of the DP master
configuration software, please refer to the relevant documentation.
3.5 Setting the station address
The station address of the encoder is set exclusively via the rotary switch in the cover
containing the connecting terminals. When the terminals are viewed from above
(outgoing cable facing downwards), the left-hand switch sets the tens and the right-
hand switch the units of the station address.
The addressing of the encoder is limited within the Profibus address area. Valid
station addresses are 3 - 99.
If an invalid station address is set, the device will not start up and the LEDs will not be
illuminated.
