● Configure the interface card for one to one Communication
The visitor configuration described previously will not work if the only devices that are
connected to the segment are YVP positioner and the NI-FBUS interface card, because
there will be no link master to schedule messages. It is necessary, therefore, to configure
the interface card as a link master, exactly as shown in Figure 3.3. (The interface name and
Device Tag may be any convenient names. The names will not be seen by any other
interfaces and are not important.)
Figure 3.3 Configure the interface as Link Master

The NI-FBUS Interface Configuration Utility must be used to install the DD for the YVP, and
also to install the standard dictionary. If you do not have the DD file, you can download it
from our web site. Visit the following web site or contact our subsidiaries.
