BAUD RATE AUTO-DETECT
The PROFIBUS network can support up to 12 Mbaud transfer rates. The server’s Auto -
Detect function finds the system baud rate (the rate of the slowest component), which
eliminates the need for board settings.
1.5.6
MULTIPLE NODES
Depending on the PLC, the PROFIBUS network is configurable to include several nodes
(The HI 2151 weight controller is one node) up to a maximum of 126.
1.5.7
GSD FILE
Some PLC’s require the GSD file (HRDY2151.GSD) to assist in setting up the HI
2151/20WC Weight Controller on the PROFIBUS network. See your PLC O&M manual
or the Hardy web site. To get the GSD file file from the Hardy Website:
1. Select Support
2. Highlight Online Support
3. Click on Sample Programs.
4. Select it from the GSD pull-down list.
1.5.8
TYPE FILE
Six Type files, referred to as the Device Data Base (DDB) Files, may be needed to
configure some of the Siemens PLCs. They are included on the Hardy disk (See DIN
Standard 19245, Part 3, Paragraph 13, Page 197) Refer to the specific Siemens PLC
manual for instructions. If type files are needed for older model PLCs, contact Hardy Tech
Support.
