4.1.6 Download and upload configuration to/from ProfIPAQ
Before configuring the ProfIPAQ, setup the PC serial port and power supply to ProfIPAQ.
Use the PROFIBUS connection or connect an external power supply ( 9 to 32 VDC) to
the PROFIBUS connections 6 and 7. To setup the serial port, select Miscellaneous – Options
(Settings) , and mark which communication port to use, Click OK .
We recommend uploading the configuration from the ProfIPAQ, before adjusting the
parameters, to minimize the risk for unwanted changes, and then download the
configuration to the ProfIPAQ. It’s possible to read the configuration with the PC software
ProfiSoft while the device communicates through the PROFIBUS, but this increases the PC
communication time from appr. 15 sec up to appr. 210 sec, depending on actions on the
bus. ProfiSoft ask if the communication over the PROFIBUS should be disconnected. If this
is done, the device make a complete restart after reading, and will start the PROFIBUS
communication again. Download a new configuration will disconnect the device before
downloading, and then make a complete restart before start communicate over the
PROFIBUS.
