8.3 Configuring EPXPBS001
The number and types of slave devices that can exchange data with the master are constrained by
memory resources within the master module. The amount of memory available for the PROFIBUS
configuration is affected by the number and types of slave modules in the network configuration. The
total slave configuration data size is limited to approximately 9KB.
