PROFIBUS Nodes
Nodes are defined by lines (rows) in the file with the keyword Slave in
the first field.
The second field contains the node number, from 1 to 125.
The third field contains the mode. It can be either Active, if the AN-X
module is emulating this node, or Monitor, if the AN-X module is
monitoring the node on the network.
The fourth and fifth fields are the input length and output length, in
bytes, as seen by the PROFIBUS master. For example, an input length
of 10 means that the AN-X will send 10 bytes of data to the PROFIBUS
master.
The sixth field is the PROFIBUS ID for the module. For monitored
nodes, if you know what the ID is, fill it in. Otherwise, set it to 0.
For active nodes, if you are not emulating another device, enter 0x08a5.
Otherwise, enter the device ID of the device you are emulating.
Examples:
Slave, 1, Active, 10, 2, 0x08a5
Slave, 2, Monitor, 5, 2, 0x0000
To send the configuration to the AN-X, start your web browser and enter
the AN-X IP address as the address.
