Adding a Slave to the Network
To add a Profibus slave to the network, locate the required slave and simply drag the slave icon
onto the visible bus cable on the busview, or right click the required slave and choose add to
network. To add a slave with a specific Profibus node address to the network, locate the required
slave and drag the icon to the network listview (ensure that the master node is selected in the
busview so that the network list is displayed in the listview rather than the slave I/O
configuration list). The above example shows a slave device being added to the network at node
address 7.
Slave Address
To change the node address of a slave already configured on the network, locate the slave in the
network listview and drag it to the position in the list corresponding to the desired address.
Alternately, the slave address can be modified from the module properties page (see below).
Module Properties (Slave)
To display the properties of a given slave, right click the required slave in the busview and
choose properties (or double click the icon in the busview). Under the general tab, various
details (including GSD file details) relating to the selected slave device are displayed. Several
configurable options are also available (see below).
