PROFIBUS-DP - Parameterization in DIGSI
59
SIPROTEC PROFIBUS-DP - Communication profile
C53000-L1840-B001-03
4.1.2 Compatibility with standard mappings of previous versions
Standard mappings 
1 to n
The standard mappings 1 to standard mapping n (n = device type dependent number 
of standard mappings) enclosed to DIGSI 4.1 for SIPROTEC devices 7SJ61...7SJ64 
and 6MD63 should not be used for new device parameterizations.
A customization of allocations and scalings is not possible with these mappings and 
the same functional limitations as shown below for standard mappings 2-1 to 2-n are 
valid.
Standard mappings 
2-1 to 2-n
Compared with standard mappings 3-1 to 3-n the following functionalities are not avail-
able at use of standard mappings 2-1 to 2-n (n = device type dependent number of 
standard mappings):
• time synchronization,
• parameterization of the fibre-optical modules (PSO modules) for line or star topo-
logy (redundant optical ring topology only),
• signalling of (single) line-breaks in a redundant optical ring topology.
4.1.3 Interface selection and mapping selection in DIGSI 4.21
Attention! 
The parameterization of PROFIBUS-DP with the functionalities described in this man-
ual using standard mapping 3-1 to 3-n (n = device type dependent number of standard 
mappings) and DIGSI 4.21 requires the following preconditions:
• Update of the Parameter generating DLL for communication modules (“PG.DLL”) in 
the DIGSI directory on the PC to version V02.04.01 or higher.
The update is required because of the extended functionalities of the standard map-
pings 3-1 to 3-n.
If no update of the Parameter generating DLL is carried out then an error occurs during 
the translation process of the mapping file when closing the dialog window 
Properties - SIPROTEC 4 device (ref. to Figure 4-1).
You can download the Parameter generating DLL V02.04.01 as
