How to Configure for PG Operation
Set the required communication parameters.
With your module selected, you can click on “Properties” and then set the communication parameters. In normal situations, the parameter settings do not need to be modified (for more detailed information on the parameters, refer to the online help that you can display by clicking the “Help” button in the Settings dialog).
For more information on certain module types, see below.
When you close the Properties window, you return to the start dialog of the “Set PG/PC Interface” communication program.
Close the configuration program with the “OK” button.
The module is now set up for PG operation.
Note
Remember that by clicking on a module to make settings, it is possible to change the assignment. If you have accidentally changed an assignment, make sure you correct it again.
Setting Communication Parameters - Extra Information
Prior to operation, the following communications parameters must be set:
SFor PROFIBUS modules (for example CP 5613, CP 5511, CP 5611, CP 5512):
-Programming device / PC is the only master on the bus
-Address
-Transmission rate
-Profile (depending on the application: DP for the DP protocol, otherwise the fast setting “Standard” or the safe setting “Universal“)
SFor CP 1613 TCP:
The IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address in the “Ethernet (MAC) and IP Addresses” tab
SFor SOFTNET TCP (for example CP 1512, CP 1612):
The IP address, subnet mask and gateway address must be set. You can do this directly in the Windows Control Panel in “Network” or here using the “Network Properties” button in the “TCP/IP Network” tab.
For CP1613 ISO and SoftNet ISO, it is not normally necessary to make any communication parameter settings.
Please note that you can also use diagnostic functions by clicking the “Diagnostics” button in the start dialog of “Set PG/PC Interface“.
