4.7.Configuring the Embedded Profibus Database

The X30 Profibus Master has to be configured with an embedded database that contains information about the Profibus Network data rate and remote Slave devices to access. The HMS Anybus NetTool for Profibus software must be installed and used for this purpose. Connect a serial RS-232 cable from the PC with the tool installed to the serial connector on the X30 as shown below:

1) Run the Tool and select Project-> New

2)Expand the Profibus Master Tree, select the ABM-DPV device and drag it onto the Bus Configuration Screen. This is the X30 FieldServer Profibus DP Master device.
