5. Settings
5.1 Setting the protocol
The Ethernet bus module supports various real time Ethernet bus systems. The desired system can be selected using the rotary switch “Protocol”. For ProfiNet this needs to be set to 0.
5.2 Setting the number of slots
The number of devices which are connected to the Ethernet bus module is set with the rotary switch “Slots”. After switching on, the Ethernet bus module reads all the parameters of the device. Following this it starts communicating.
Attention: To change the number of slots when switched on, the switch “Slots” must first be turned to 0. Communication with the master is then interrupted. Following this the desired number can be set. After leaving the position 0 you have about 2 seconds time for this.
5.3 Setting the device name
Every IO device is identified by its device name. The setting of the device name can be undertaken using, for example, the program “Step 7 – HW Config” in the menu “Target system / Ethernet / Edit Ethernet participant…”
