D-4 PROFIBUS Communications Module
This circuit utilizes the Param eter Protocol. A REQUEST to Station 1 is processed only one at a time, and after each
RESPONSE from Station 1 a zero must be sent and received to 'handshake' before the next REQUEST/RESPONSE
transaction can take place. For example:
Send a param. read request --> Receive a parameter read response --> Send a "0" --> Receive a "0" --> [Transaction compl.]
If the RESPONSE PCA Word 1 (N10:2) is "0", then a REQUEST can be initiated.
Elsewhere in the user program these words must be loaded with message data prior to initiating the REQUEST.
N7:10 = RC = the operation to be performed ("1" = Read, "2" = 16-bit Write),
N7:11 = PNU = the parameter number to read or write
N7:13 = PVA #1 (the parameter value (high word)) - only used when writing parameters
N7:14 = PVA #2 (the parameter value (low word)) - only used when writing parameters
The four Parameter Protocol Words set up in the scanner are used to perform the Parameter Protocol:
N20:2 = contains RC (the operation to be performed) and PNU (the parameter number to read or write) combined
N20:3 = Subindex (the MDIport #)
N20:4 = PVA #1 (the parameter value (high word))
N20:5 = PVA #2 (the parameter value (low word))
B3:19/15 is turned ON elsewhere in the program after a REQUEST message (N7:10-14) is loaded. This causes one Param.
Protocol read or write to occur and B3:19/15 is turned OFF when the transaction is complete.

N10:2 is the Station 1 Response Parameter Access Word 1. It is <> 0 when a message has been received in response to a
message request. If the response is >= 7000 hex (28672 decimal), then the adapter is responding that an error has occured.
In this case, the returned data in the response will contain a fault code and not the parameter value data.
The response message can be found at:
N7:20 = PCA Word = contains RC and PNU
N7:21
N7:22 = PVA #1 = the parameter value (high word)
N7:23 = PVA #2 = the parameter value (low word)
The PVA's will either contain parameter read data, echo the parameter write data or contain an error code if unsuccessful.
