Application Example

 

 

Before You

Before attempting to use the application examples in this chapter, make sure:

Begin

your Advantys STB modules are assembled, installed, and powered according to

 

￿your particular system, application, and network requirements

 

you know the input and output process data lengths for your specific configuration

 

(the sample island assembly’s input length is 80 bits and the output length is 64

 

bits)

 

You should have a working familiarity with both the INTERBUS fieldbus protocol and

 

your configuration software, either SyCon or CMD.

 

 

 

Note: For specific information about your configuration software, consult the

 

manufacturer’s documentation included with the Hilscher (SyCon) or Phoenix

 

Contact (CMD) product.

SyCon

 

 

You should have the EDS file and corresponding bitmap files that were supplied with

Considerations

the STB NIB 1010 INTERBUS NIM (also available at www.schneiderauto-

 

mation.com), or you have created an EDS that is specific to the sample island

 

assembly with the Advantys or SyCon configuration software.

CMD

 

You should have the Schneider device database, Schneider_Device_DB, available

Considerations

at www.schneiderautomation.com. It includes the Advantys STB catalog entry. If

 

you don’t have this database, you can create a configuration-specific device by

 

following the instructions for CMD configuration.

 

The sample island assembly’s input length is 80 bits and the output length is 64 bits.

 

If you do not account for the entire data length of your island, process data will be

 

truncated or connection to the network will be impossible.
