9.1 Product Specifications
The PTQ-PDPMV1 module is a powerful communication interface for Quantum
platform processors. Developed under license from Schneider Electric, the
module incorporates proprietary backplane technology that enables powerful
data exchange with Quantum processors.
The PTQ-PDPMV1 PROFIBUS DP/DPV1 Master module supports complete
Master specifications according to IEC 61158. Acyclic parameter data can be
transferred with Class 1 or Class 2 DPV1 services, allowing processors to easily
communicate with slave devices supporting the PROFIBUS DPV0/V1 protocol.
The module now includes new features and functionalities supporting the
Quantum 140CPU67160 Hot Standby processor in the Unity Pro programming
environment.
The new (HSBY) Hot Standby features will be included with the current product
offering, part number PTQ-PDPMV1.
Most PTQ-PDPMV1 modules' firmware installed in the field can be flash
upgraded, following the guidelines and restrictions below.
The module's operation will be identical to that of the stand-alone version with the
following exceptions:
1 Module Setup: Once the module’s firmware is updated, the module will
automatically recognize the 140CPU67160 processor and activate the HSBY
functions.
2 PCB: A new HSBY icon is displayed within PCB (ProSoft Configuration
Builder) to identify the module as a HSBY unit.
Note: For specific HSBY instructions, pay attention to and follow the new HSBY icon for
special instructions and guidance throughout this manual.
3 Important Note on Field Firmware Flash Upgrades: All modules having a
serial number

(greater than or equal to) 1451, having been shipped after
10/20/2005 can be field firmware upgraded. These modules have received a
new hardware version 1.3 supporting the Hot Standby features. All other
modules must be returned to ProSoft Technology for firmware upgrades.
Caution: Do not attempt to upgrade the firmware on modules with serial numbers 1450 or lower,
otherwise the module may become inoperable. If the firmware upgrade fails, contact ProSoft
technical support for assistance.
