VEGACOM 557 Profibus DP 35
Data image in VEGACOM 557
Measured value image DISBUS in mode 6E6A
In this operating mode, it is possible to read out the PC/DCS values individually in VEGACOM
557, i.e. the Profibus-Master enquires a measured value and this measured value is provided
by the VEGACOM 557.
Control command 0xCD (DISBUS)
When enquiring with this control command, VEGACOM 557 answers with individual PC/DCS
value. The enquiry telegram written by the Profibus-Master into the 6 Byte outputs is struc-
tured as follows.
Byte1 Byte2 Byte3 Byte4 Byte5 Byte6
6 Byte
Format of the enquiry acc. to individual PC/DCS values
VEGACOM 557 writes the following answering telegram into the 6 Byte inputs of the Profibus-
Master:
6 Byte

Status:
0x00 = valid measured value
0x01 = simulated measured value (only on
VEGAMET 509 and 512)
0x80 = old measured value (probably con-
nection separated)
0xFE = no PC/DCS value available (not
configurated)
0xFF = general error
PC/DCS measured values
0xHH = High-Byte of the measured value
0xLL = Low-Byte of the measured value
Value range comprises max. +32.768 to
-32.767.
