to print the input and output maps for reference.

When you import this memory map file into the processor configuration, it
simplifies the task of establishing communications between the module and the
processor. You will have to establish backplane communications using either
Concept or Unity XL Pro software.

After you download the configuration to the PTQ-PDPMV1 module, save the .dty
and .xsy files to a location on your hard drive (a folder below C:\PCBExportFiles),
where you will import them into the processor during the processor configuration
steps. These project files greatly reduce the amount of time it would otherwise
take to perform the necessary configuration tasks.

If you are using Unity 7.X or later, you will use the PTQ-PDPMV1.xfm and PTQ-
PDPMV1.xsy
files.

If you are using Unity 2.X to 6.X, you will use the PTQ-PDPMV1_V2.X-6.X.xfm
and PTQ-PDPMV1_V2.X-6.X.xsy files.

Refer to Configuring the Processor with Unity Pro (page 59) and Configuring the
Processor with Concept (page 101) for detailed instructions on how to configure
the processor.

Note: The recommended location for the files is the My Documents folder on your PC. The

configuration tool for the processor will use this folder by default.

Calculating Checksums

The checksum (CRC) values are calculated from the PROFIBUS configuration
data, and compare the contents of the configuration file in the module with the
value reported by the processor. The checksum (CRC) value allows the
processor to verify that the configuration file is valid, and has not changed since
the last time the configuration file was imported to the processor. Any change to
the contents of the configuration file in either location changes the unique
numeric (CRC) value for the file.

If the checksum values do not match, the Master stops and indicates a
configuration error, and the CFG light illuminates on the module.

1 On the PTQ-PDPMV1 PROFIBUS Master Setup dialog box, click the

button.

2 Make a note of the checksum values so that you can enter them later if

prompted.

3 To insert the checksum values in Unity Pro, refer to Updating Checksum

Values: Unity Pro (page 67).

To insert the checksum values in Concept, refer to Configuration Validation &
SETCRC Function Block (page 128).
