9.1.4  PROFIBUS DP communication 
9.1.4.1 PROFIBUS DP configuring 
The ASM 452 is integrated into the hardware configuration by means of a GSD file. The 
ASM can then be configured using the HW Config of SIMATIC Manager or another 
PROFIBUS DP tool. 
A GSD file is provided for ASM 452 on the "MOBY software" CD. 
 
9.1.4.2 Operating mode of the ASM 452 
The approved operating modes of ASM 452 are described in the GSD file. It is set using the 
hardware configuration tool (e.g. STEP 7 HW Config).

  The configuration data sent to 
the ASM 452 by the DP master 
do not match the configuration of 
the ASM 452. 
  Check the configuration of 
the ASM 452 (input/output, 
PROFIBUS DP address).

  ASM 452 has detected the baud 
rate, but is not being addressed 
by the DP Master. 
  ASM 452 has not been 
configured. 
  Check the PROFIBUS DP 
address set on the ASM 452 
or in the configuration 
software. 
  Check the configuration of 
the ASM 452 (station type). 
On  flashes 
  There is a hardware defect in the 
ASM 452. 
  Replace the ASM 452.
