1.1 Learning Objectives
When you have completed the steps in this User Manual, you will have learned
how to:
ƒ Understand data flow through the gateway between a Schneider Electric
Modicon M340 or Quantum controller using Modbus ® TCP/IP, and slave
devices on a PROFIBUS DP network.
ƒ Configure the 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 as a PROFIBUS DP version 1 Master
station to read cyclic data from and write cyclic data to PROFIBUS slave
devices.
ƒ Understand how the Unity™ Pro v 4.0 Derived Function Blocks (DFBs)
created by ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) work to transfer PROFIBUS
cyclic data and perform any required PROFIBUS acyclic messaging, allowing
the Modicon processor to emulate a PROFIBUS DP version 1 Master.
ƒ Observe that the 5204SE-MNET-PDPMV1 gateway is sending and receiving
data on the Ethernet port and PROFIBUS Master port.
1.2 Prerequisites
To get the most benefit from this User Manual, you should have the following
skills:
ƒ Microsoft Windows: Install and launch programs, execute menu commands,
navigate dialog boxes, and enter data.
ƒ PROFIBUS communication: Configure a PROFIBUS network using ProSoft
Configuration Builder (PCB) software.
ƒ Ethernet networking: Connect the 5204SE-Protocol> gateway and a
Schneider Electric Modicon M340 or Quantum Programmable Automation
Controller (PAC) system to an Ethernet network using valid IP address,
subnet mask, and default network gateway settings.
ƒ Hardware installation and wiring: Install the gateway, safely connect all
devices to a power source, and connect the gateway’s PROFIBUS Master
port and its Ethernet port to their respective networks.
