Watchdog:
Watchdog control: If this option is activated, the watchdog time as defined below will
apply. If the slave has not been accessed by the master within this time, it will be reset
to its initialization state.
Time (ms): Watchdog time, relevant in case the watchdog control is activated.
User parameters
"User parameters" in extension to the base DP parameters (see above) are various
individually parameters of a DP slave. If such are defined in the device description file
(GS?-file), they will be displayed here in a table.
The parameter table shows for each Parameter the parameter name, the real resp.
symbolic Value (see above, option Symbolic values) and the Allowed values as defined
in the device description file (GS?-file). The parameter values entered in the 'Value'
column can be edited by a click on a selected value field.
Symbolic values: If symbolic names are also specified for the parameters in the device
description file (GS?-file), this option can be activated to get the symbolic values
displayed instead of the real values in column 'Value' in the parameter table.
Length of user parameters (Byte): Sum of the data length of all user parameters as
defined in the device description file.
Defaults: Activating this button will set the values displayed in the parameter table
back to their defaults.
Groups
This button opens the Group Properties dialog. Here the slave can be assigned to one
or more of the eight possible groups which serve for synchronized data exchange
between master and slave.
