6.7.2 Modules for cyclic data exchange
Promass 83 is a modular PROFIBUS slave. In contrast to a compact slave, the structure of a modular
slave is variable - it consists of several individual modules.
The following section describes the modules that are available for cyclic data communication with
the Promass 83 GSD file.
AI module (Analog Input) - cyclic transmission of process variables
By means of the AI module, the measured variables of the measuring device can be read out
cyclically by the automation system (PROFIBUS master). Here, the cyclic transmission of measured
variables to the automation system is effected in data blocks of 5 bytes. The measured variable is
portrayed in the first four bytes in the form of floating point numbers in accordance with IEEE 754
standard. The fifth byte contains status information pertaining to the measured value which is
implemented in accordance with the PROFIBUS Profile Specification, Version 3.0.
