9.9 Using Multiple PTQ-PDPMV1 Modules with Concept
If your application requires more than one PTQ-PDPMV1 module for a single
Quantum processor, you must manually merge the exported DTY files for each
module into a single DTY file.
The only difference between the DTY files for each module is the PROFIBUS
data types (input and output) that define the data associated to configured
slaves. If you have already exported the processor files for the first modules
(C:\project\DFB), repeat the following steps for each additional module to include
in the Concept project.
1 Export the new processor files to a different folder (for example C:\temp).
2 Use a text editor such as Notepad.exe to open the exported DTY file. Select
and copy the PROFIBUS "DATAF" data type definitions. These are the last
two data types defined in the DTY file. The names of these data types will
vary depending on the module name you entered, but they will always have
"_IN_DATAF" and "OUT_DATAF" suffixes. For example, if the module name
was configured as "PTQPDPMV1", select and copy the following data types:
TYPE PTQPDPMV1_IN_DATAF:
...
...
END_TYPE
TYPE PTQPDPMV1_OUT_DATAF:
...
...
END_TYPE
3 Open the DTY file in C:\project\DFB and paste the data types at the end of
the file. Save and close the file.
With this procedure, you will obtain a final merged DTY file for all PTQ-PDPMV1
modules for your application.
