The global group properties (Sync. Mode and/or Freeze Mode) are defined in the DP
Master configuration (see DP parameters of the DP master, Group properties). This
configuration dialog can also be opened from here via the Global Group Properties
button.
A slave device can only be assigned to those groups whose properties it supports. The
concerned properties of each slave (Sync. Mode / Freeze Mode) are displayed above the
table, the supported modes being checked.
To assign the slave to a group, click on the checkbox in the Enable column of the
respective group to set a checkmark. To remove the slave from a group, in the same
way you can remove the checkmark.
DP Parameters of a DP-Module
Abb. 507 DP parameters dialog for a DP-Module
The DP parameters dialog of an input/output-module in a Profibus configuration in
the Module information section describes the settings for the Config (module
description coding according to PROFIBUS standard) and the length of the input and
output data ( Input length, Output length) in bytes as defined in the device description
file (GS?-file).
Further on - if provided with the device description - a set of device-specific User
parameters is displayed in a table like it is for the DP Parameters of a DP Slave. The
option Symbolic values allows to switch the display in column 'Value' between
symbolic and real values and the complete Length of user parameters as given by the
device description is indicated in Bytes. The parameter values entered in the 'Value'
column can be edited by a click on a selected value field.
