Variable Name
Size/Type Description
Out - Timeout
1
16-bit Integer
Used to hold the amount of time in milliseconds to wait for a

SetSlaveMode
1
Single-Bit
Boolean
This is the bit your control and sequencing logic will use to
trigger a message to tell the PROFIBUS Master to change
the operating mode of a single slave or group of slaves. Set
this bit to one (1) whenever no other messages are active
and you want to send this acyclic message.
Out - SlaveAddress 1
8-bit Byte
Valid entries: 0-125, 127
If you enter a value from 0 to 125, the acyclic message will
affect only the one slave device at this address.
If you enter a value of 127, the acyclic message will affect a
group of slaves, specified by the Out-GroupSelect
parameter.
