The PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will prevent the user from selecting
a New slave address that is already occupied by another device; this includes
detected Master stations as well. If the user selects an occupied address, a
message similar to the one shown here will open.
When an address has been successfully assigned, the PROFIBUS Master
Configuration window will update the Network scan window as shown here. The
node address will be updated to the one that the user selected in the Set Slave
dialog box. The check box in the Select column will be marked allowing the user
to adopt the slave to the configuration.
Slave
In this column the name of the slave as stated in the assigned GSD-file will be
displayed. If no matching GSD-file is found the Ident number will be displayed in
red color in the drop-down list.
Module
This column shows the name of the module(s) as stated in the assigned GSD-
file, which matches the Identifier byte(s) derived from the GetCfg mailbox
message. If no GSD-file or no matching module is found the Identifier byte(s) will
be displayed in red color. If the configuration for a slave is constructed of several
modules, the modules will be listed under each other.
