Variant A: Configuration using the fieldbus configurator included in the
programming software
First, we have to specify the hardware. Click on
.
Double click the object "PLC
Configuration". Click on "Hardware Configuration". Press the right mouse button. Select "Append
Subelement/DP Master…".
Set the "Card number" in the appearing window. The following rule applies: The slot number (= card
number) can be gathered from the identification number of the CPU. Furthermore, we can also
determine the coupler form the identification number. The following applies:
• GJR5 253x 00 Rxxyz with
y = slot number = card number = 1
z = slot number = card number = 2
• Furthermore, the following code applies to y and z: 2=PROFIBUS DP / 5=DeviceNet / 6=ARCNET /
7=Ethernet / 8=CANopen / 9=Interbus
• For our example: CPU with identification number R0272 -> slot number 1 -> Ethernet; slot number 2
-> PROFIBUS DP
• Since we are using the PROFIBUS coupler in our example, the resulting card number is 2.
Confirm with "OK".
