Parameter Assignment
A slaves user-specific parameters can be changed via the parameter assignment page. User-
specific parameters for a slave device are defined in the corresponding GSD file for the device,
the definition of which are device-specific and should be found in the documentation for the
device.
Parameters can be altered via combo boxes or via direct input of hexadecimal values. The
hexadecimal values for the user_prm_data are displayed at the bottom of the screen and can be
edited directly (consult the device specific documentation for the meaning of these values).
Adding I/O to a Slave
The possible I/O combinations for a given slave may be fixed or configurable (i.e. modular)
depending on the GSD file for the device. When the I/O configuration is fixed, the fixed I/O is
always defined whenever the device is added to the network. However, for modular devices, the
I/O configuration must be assigned manually.
The GSD file for a modular slave will define a maximum number of I/O slots – each of which
may be configured with an I/O module. The available I/O modules for a particular slave can be
viewed by expanding the slave node in the Profibus DP Treeview. To add an I/O module to a
slave, first ensure the required slave is selected in the busview, and then drag the required I/O
module into a spare slot of the slave listview.
