Parameter list
9836 3123 01 381 (428)
Some buses can use a SW-configured node address. This parameter has two selections:
Software: Makes it possible to program node address from user interface.
Hardware: Node address is configured with the switches on the fieldbus card.
Normally the switches on the fieldbus card must be set in a specific way to
enable these parameters from ToolsTalk PF.
This parameter specifies the network ID number used in the fieldbus system. Two controllers
in the same fieldbus network cannot have the same node address.
Valid for Profibus-DP (1-124), ModbusPlus (1-99), and ControlNet (1-64).
Provides a way to send longer data strings than the standard 20 bytes process data. The data
package that is sent to or from the Power Focus can be longer than the 20 bytes process data.
The part exceeding the process data is sent in small packages. The PCP length defines the
package length. PCP data has lower priority then the process data.
Available selections are 0, 1, 2, and 4. These numbers are the lengths in words. 0 = no PCP.
The PF has to be restarted when the PCP length is changed. The length must be
the same in the PLC.
Process data length is the first part of the InterBus message. The length has to be same for
both input and output data. Maximum process data length is 20 bytes minus the PCP length in
bytes. This means that the highest Process string length is 20 bytes if PCP is zero.
The PF has to be restarted when the process data length is changed. The length
must be the same in the PLC.
ModBusPlus global data exchanges require a source address, which is a node address where
to get the global data from.
Software: the node address is set from user interface.
Hardware: the node address only can be set from the switches on ProfiBus card.
Source address is the network ID number used in the fieldbus system. Set address to get
global data from this source.
Set an Ethernet connection IP address for fieldbus module, such as ModBus/TCP,
Ethernet/IP, Profinet-IO, FL-Net.
Set an Ethernet connection Subnet mask for fieldbus module, such as ModBus/TCP,
Ethernet/IP, Profinet-IO.
Set an Ethernet connection Gateway for fieldbus module, such as ModBus/TCP, Ethernet/IP,
Profinet-IO.
A set for Profinet-IO, define a device name and master need to know the device name to get
communicate with it.
Parameter valid only for Ethernet/IP and works only on Anybus FW 2.xx or later. It makes
possible to configure Anybus card with Assembly Instances as in FW 1.32 or earlier.
For 0: it is ODVA compatible, 1: FW 1.32 compatible (Listen-only 4, Input-only 3)
This is a choice to make a virtual fieldbus. One virtual master can have four virtual members
Virtual from PF
data length
From PF Data length for the virtual member.
