The write data (WriteData) is an array set to match the value entered in the
Write Register Count
parameter of the PDPS.CFG file. This data is paged up to
200 words at a time from the processor to the module. The WriteData task places
the write data into the output image for transfer to the module. This data is
passed from the processor to the module to be the PROFIBUS Input data read
by the PROFIBUS Master as status and control information for use in other
nodes on the network.
2.2.3 Block Control Data (PDPSBackplane)
This data object stores the variables required for the data transfer between the
processor and the MVI56-PDPS module. The structure of the object is shown in
the following example:
2.3 ProSoft Configuration Builder
ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) provides a quick and easy way to manage
module configuration files customized to meet your application needs. PCB is not
only a powerful solution for new configuration files, but also allows you to import
information from previously installed (known working) configurations to new
projects.
