7. Common Items and Others
7.1 Communication Cable
For connection cables, use type A cables conforming to the ProfiBus standard.
7.2 Useful Function When Adjusting an X-SEL Controller
(1) If a standard or expansion I/O board is installed in an X-SEL K-type controller, the controller can be started
alone without connecting a 24-VDC I/O power supply.
(2) If a ProfiBus-DP board is installed in an X-SEL controller, the controller can be started alone even when the
network is not yet established.
In either case, set one of I/O parameter Nos. 10 to 13, whichever is applicable, to “0: Not monitored.”
(Note) After all necessary operations and adjustments have been completed, be sure to reset the parameter to
the original setting. If the parameter is not reset, the board in the applicable slot will not be checked for
errors.
7.3 GDS Files
For the ProfiBus-DP configurator, use the configurator recommended for the master unit. If GDS files are needed
to use the recommended configurator, download the applicable files from IAI’s website specified below:
Website: www.intelligentactuator.com
For a ProfiBus-DP configurator to become effective, the GDS files supplied with the product must be installed and
this device must be set on the master side. When setting the device in the master, use the numbers of input and
output ports specified in the X-SEL(TT), RCS-C, E-Con, SCON, ACON, PCON, ASEL, PSEL or SSEL controller
for the numbers of input and output bytes.
Once the necessary settings have been made using the configurator, the system will automatically communicate
with the network next time the system is started. For the method to set the slave station (X-SEL(TT), RCS-C,
E-Con, SCON, ACON, PCON, ASEL, PSEL or SSEL) information in the master station, follow the operation
manuals for the master station, PLC in which the master station is installed, and any applicable peripheral
equipment.
