Safety information for users

2 Basics and mounting

2.1 Safety information for users
Handling of electrostatic VIPA modules make use of highly integrated components in MOS-Technology. These
sensitive modules components are extremely sensitive to over-voltages that can occur during electrostatic
discharges. The following symbol is attached to modules that can be destroyed by elec-
trostatic discharges.

The Symbol is located on the module, the module rack or on packing material and it indi-
cates the presence of electrostatic sensitive equipment. It is possible that electrostatic
sensitive equipment is destroyed by energies and voltages that are far less than the
human threshold of perception. These voltages can occur where persons do not dis-
charge themselves before handling electrostatic sensitive modules and they can damage
components thereby, causing the module to become inoperable or unusable. Modules
that have been damaged by electrostatic discharges can fail after a temperature change,
mechanical shock or changes in the electrical load. Only the consequent implementation
of protection devices and meticulous attention to the applicable rules and regulations for
handling the respective equipment can prevent failures of electrostatic sensitive modules.

Shipping of modules Modules must be shipped in the original packing material.

Measurements and altera- When you are conducting measurements on electrostatic sensitive modules you should
tions on electrostatic sen- take the following precautions:
sitive modules
n Floating instruments must be discharged before use.
n Instruments must be grounded.
Modifying electrostatic sensitive modules you should only use soldering irons with
grounded tips.

CAUTION!
Personnel and instruments should be grounded when working on electro-
static sensitive modules.

System conception > Overview

2.2 System conception

2.2.1 Overview
System SLIO is a modular automation system for assembly on a 35mm mounting rail. By
means of the peripheral modules with 2, 4 or 8 channels this system may properly be
adapted matching to your automation tasks. The wiring complexity is low, because the
supply of the DC 24V power section is integrated to the backplane bus and defective
modules may be replaced with standing wiring. By deployment of the power modules in
contrasting colors within the system, further isolated areas may be defined for the DC
24V power section supply, respectively the electronic power supply may be extended with
2A.

n Line extension
n Periphery modules
n Accessories

CAUTION!
Only modules of VIPA may be combined. A mixed operation with third-
party modules is not allowed!

CPU 01xC
With this CPU 01xC, the CPU electronic, input/output components and power supply are
integrated to one casing. In addition, up to 64 periphery modules of the System SLIO can
be connected to the backplane bus. As head module via the integrated power supply
CPU electronic and the I/O components are power supplied as well as the electronic of
the connected periphery modules. To connect the power supply of the I/O components
and for DC 24V power supply of via backplane bus connected peripheral modules, the
CPU has removable connectors. By installing of up to 64 periphery modules at the back-
plane bus, these are electrically connected, this means these are assigned to the back-
plane bus, the electronic modules are power supplied and each periphery module is con-
nected to the DC 24V power section supply.

CPU 01x
With this CPU 01x, the CPU electronic and power supply are integrated to one casing. As
head module, via the integrated power module for power supply, CPU electronic and the
electronic of the connected periphery modules are supplied. The DC 24 power section
supply for the linked periphery modules is established via a further connection of the
power module. By installing of up to 64 periphery modules at the backplane bus, these
are electrically connected, this means these are assigned to the backplane bus, the elec-
tronic modules are power supplied and each periphery module is connected to the DC
24V power section supply.

CAUTION!
CPU part and power module may not be separated!
Here you may only exchange the electronic module!

Bus coupler
With a bus coupler bus interface and power module is integrated to one casing. With the
bus interface you get access to a subordinated bus system. As head module, via the inte-
grated power module for power supply, bus interface and the electronic of the connected
periphery modules are supplied. The DC 24 power section supply for the linked periphery
modules is established via a further connection of the power module. By installing of up to
64 periphery modules at the bus coupler, these are electrically connected, this means
these are assigned to the backplane bus, the electronic modules are power supplied and
each periphery module is connected to the DC 24V power section supply.

System conception > Components

Line extension
In the System SLIO there is the possibility to place up to 64 modules in on line. By means
of the line extension you can divide this line into several lines. Here you have to place a
line extension master at each end of a line and the subsequent line has to start with a line
extension slave. Master and slave are to be connected via a special connecting cable. In
this way, you can divide a line on up to 5 lines. For each line extension the maximum
number of pluggable modules at the System SLIO bus is decreased by 1. To use the line
extension no special configuration is required.

Periphery modules Each periphery module consists of a terminal and an electronic module.

1 Terminal module
2 Electronic module

Terminal module
The terminal module serves to carry the electronic module, contains the backplane bus
with power supply for the electronic, the DC 24V power section supply and the staircase-
shaped terminal for wiring. Additionally the terminal module has a locking system for
fixing at a mounting rail. By means of this locking system your SLIO system may be
assembled outside of your switchgear cabinet to be later mounted there as whole system.

Electronic module
The functionality of a SLIO periphery module is defined by the electronic module, which is
mounted to the terminal module by a sliding mechanism. With an error the defective
module may be exchanged for a functional module with standing installation. At the front
side there are LEDs for status indication. For simple wiring each module shows a corre-
sponding connection diagram at the front and at the side.

2.2.3 Accessories
Shield bus carrier
The shield bus carrier (order no.: 000-0AB00) serves to carry the shield bus (10mm x
3mm) to connect cable shields. Shield bus carriers, shield bus and shield fixings are not
in the scope of delivery. They are only available as accessories. The shield bus carrier is
mounted underneath the terminal of the terminal module. With a flat mounting rail for
adaptation to a flat mounting rail you may remove the spacer of the shield bus carrier.

Bus cover
With each head module, to protect the backplane bus connectors, there is a mounted bus
cover in the scope of delivery. You have to remove the bus cover of the head module
before mounting a System SLIO module. For the protection of the backplane bus con-
nector you always have to mount the bus cover at the last module of your system again.
The bus cover has the order no. 000-0AA00.

Coding pins
There is the possibility to fix the assignment of electronic and terminal module. Here
coding pins (order number 000-0AC00) from VIPA can be used. The coding pin consists
of a coding jack and a coding plug. By combining electronic and terminal module with
coding pin, the coding jack remains in the electronic module and the coding plug in the
terminal module. This ensures that after replacing the electronics module just another
electronic module can be plugged with the same encoding.

modules module from VIPA with the order number 007-1AB00. So you have also the possibility
to define isolated groups.
n The power module with the order number 007-1AB10 is to be used if the 3A for the
electronic power supply at the backplane bus is no longer sufficient. Additionally you
get an isolated group for the DC 24V power section supply with max. 4A.
n By placing the power module 007-1AB10 at the following backplane bus modules
may be placed with a sum current of max. 2A. Afterwards a power module is to be
placed again. To secure the power supply, the power modules may be mixed used.

Installation guidelines

2.8 Installation guidelines

General The installation guidelines contain information about the interference free deployment of a
PLC system. There is the description of the ways, interference may occur in your PLC,
how you can make sure the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and how you manage
the isolation.

What does EMC mean? Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) means the ability of an electrical device, to function
error free in an electromagnetic environment without being interfered respectively without
interfering the environment.
The components of VIPA are developed for the deployment in industrial environments
and meets high demands on the EMC. Nevertheless you should project an EMC planning
before installing the components and take conceivable interference causes into account.

Possible interference Electromagnetic interferences may interfere your control via different ways:
causes
n Electromagnetic fields (RF coupling)
n Magnetic fields with power frequency
n Bus system
n Power supply
n Protected earth conductor
Depending on the spreading medium (lead bound or lead free) and the distance to the
interference cause, interferences to your control occur by means of different coupling
mechanisms.
There are:
n galvanic coupling
n capacitive coupling
n inductive coupling
n radiant coupling

Basic rules for EMC In the most times it is enough to take care of some elementary rules to guarantee the
EMC. Please regard the following basic rules when installing your PLC.
n Take care of a correct area-wide grounding of the inactive metal parts when installing
your components.
– Install a central connection between the ground and the protected earth conductor
system.
– Connect all inactive metal extensive and impedance-low.
– Please try not to use aluminium parts. Aluminium is easily oxidizing and is there-
fore less suitable for grounding.
n When cabling, take care of the correct line routing.
– Organize your cabling in line groups (high voltage, current supply, signal and data
lines).
– Always lay your high voltage lines and signal respectively data lines in separate
channels or bundles.
– Route the signal and data lines as near as possible beside ground areas (e.g.
suspension bars, metal rails, tin cabinet).

HB300 | IM | 053-1DP00 | en | 19-06 31

 Basics and mounting VIPA System SLIO
Installation guidelines

n Proof the correct fixing of the lead isolation.

– Data lines must be laid isolated.
– Analog lines must be laid isolated. When transmitting signals with small ampli-
tudes the one sided laying of the isolation may be favourable.
– Lay the line isolation extensively on an isolation/protected earth conductor rail
directly after the cabinet entry and fix the isolation with cable clamps.
– Make sure that the isolation/protected earth conductor rail is connected impe-
dance-low with the cabinet.
– Use metallic or metallised plug cases for isolated data lines.
n In special use cases you should appoint special EMC actions.
– Consider to wire all inductivities with erase links.
– Please consider luminescent lamps can influence signal lines.
n Create a homogeneous reference potential and ground all electrical operating sup-
plies when possible.
– Please take care for the targeted employment of the grounding actions. The
grounding of the PLC serves for protection and functionality activity.
– Connect installation parts and cabinets with your PLC in star topology with the
isolation/protected earth conductor system. So you avoid ground loops.
– If there are potential differences between installation parts and cabinets, lay suffi-
ciently dimensioned potential compensation lines.

Isolation of conductors Electrical, magnetically and electromagnetic interference fields are weakened by means
of an isolation, one talks of absorption. Via the isolation rail, that is connected conductive
with the rack, interference currents are shunt via cable isolation to the ground. Here you
have to make sure, that the connection to the protected earth conductor is impedance-
low, because otherwise the interference currents may appear as interference cause.
When isolating cables you have to regard the following:
n If possible, use only cables with isolation tangle.
n The hiding power of the isolation should be higher than 80%.
n Normally you should always lay the isolation of cables on both sides. Only by means
of the both-sided connection of the isolation you achieve high quality interference
suppression in the higher frequency area. Only as exception you may also lay the iso-
lation one-sided. Then you only achieve the absorption of the lower frequencies. A
one-sided isolation connection may be convenient, if:
– the conduction of a potential compensating line is not possible.
– analog signals (some mV respectively µA) are transferred.
– foil isolations (static isolations) are used.
n With data lines always use metallic or metallised plugs for serial couplings. Fix the
isolation of the data line at the plug rack. Do not lay the isolation on the PIN 1 of the
plug bar!
n At stationary operation it is convenient to strip the insulated cable interruption free
and lay it on the isolation/protected earth conductor line.
n To fix the isolation tangles use cable clamps out of metal. The clamps must clasp the
isolation extensively and have well contact.
n Lay the isolation on an isolation rail directly after the entry of the cable in the cabinet.
Lead the isolation further on to your PLC and don't lay it on there again!

CAUTION!
Please regard at installation!
At potential differences between the grounding points, there may be a
compensation current via the isolation connected at both sides.
Remedy: Potential compensation line

 Deployment VIPA System SLIO
Basics

4 Deployment
4.1 Basics
General n PROFIBUS is an international standard applicable to an open field bus for building,
manufacturing and process automation.
n PROFIBUS defines the technical and functional characteristics of a serial field bus
system that can be used to create a low (sensor-/actuator level) or medium (process
level) performance network of programmable logic controllers.
n Together with other field bus systems, PROFIBUS has been standardized in IEC
61158 since 1999. IEC 61158 bears the title "Digital data communication for measure-
ment and control - Field bus for use in industrial control systems".
n PROFIBUS comprises an assortment of compatible versions. The following details
refer to PROFIBUS DP.

PROFIBUS DP-V0 n PROFIBUS DP-V0 (Decentralized Peripherals) provides the basic functionality of DP,
including cycle data exchange as well as diagnostics functions.
n PROFIBUS DP is a special protocol intended mainly for automation tasks in a manu-
facturing environment.
n DP is very fast, offers Plug'n'Play facilities and provides a cost-effective alternative to
parallel cabling between PLC and remote I/O.
n PROFIBUS DP was designed for high-speed cyclical data communication between
bus master and slave systems.

PROFIBUS DP-V1 n The original version, designed DP-V0, has been expanded to include version DP-V1,
offering acyclic data exchange between master and slave.
n DP-V1 contains enhancements geared towards process automation, in particular acy-
clic data communication for parameter assignment, operation, visualization and alarm
handling of intelligent field devices, parallel to cycle user data communication. This
permits online access to station using engineering tools.
n DP-V1 defines interrupts. Examples for different types of interrupts are status inter-
rupt, update interrupt and a manufacturer-specific interrupt.
n Please note in operating the DP V1 functionality that your DP master supports DP-V1
as well. For this you find details in the documentation to your DP master.

Master and slaves PROFIBUS distinguishes between active stations (master) and passive stations (slave).
n Master devices
– Master devices control the data traffic at the bus.
– It is also possible to operate with multiple masters on a PROFIBUS. This is
referred to as multi-master operation.
– The protocol on the bus establishes a logical token ring between intelligent
devices connected to the bus. Only the master that has the token, can communi-
cate with its slaves.
– A master is able to issue unsolicited messages if it is in possession of the access
key (token).
– The PROFIBUS protocol also refers to masters as active participants.
n Slave devices
– A PROFIBUS slave acquires data from peripheral equipment, sensors, actuators
and transducers.
– The VIPA PROFIBUS couplers are modular slave devices that transfer data
between the periphery and the high-level master. In accordance with the
PROFIBUS standards these devices have no bus access rights. They are only
allowed to acknowledge messages or return messages to a master when this has
issued a request.
– Slaves are also referred to as passive participants.

42 HB300 | IM | 053-1DP00 | en | 19-06

VIPA System SLIO Deployment
Basics

Master class 1 MSAC_C1 The master of the class 1 is a central control that exchanges cyclically information with
the decentral stations (slaves) in a defined message cycle. Typical MSAC_C1 devices
are controls (PLC) or PCs. MSAC_C1 devices gain active bus access, which allows them
to read the measuring values (inputs) of the field devices and to write the set points (out-
puts) of the actuators at a fixed time.

Master class 2 MSAC_C2 MSAC_C2 are employed for service and diagnostic. Here connected devices may be
configured, measuring values and parameters are evaluated and device states can be
requested. MSAC_C2 devices don’t need to be connected to the bus system perma-
nently. These also have active bus access. Typical MSAC_C2 devices are engineering,
project engineering or operator devices.

RS485 interface as data n PROFIBUS employs screened twisted pair cable on the basis of the RS485 interface.
transfer medium n There is a 9pin jack at the DP slave. This jack is used to connect the PROFIBUS DP
slave to the PROFIBUS network.
n The data transfer rate of the system is limited to a max. of 12Mbit/s.
n The RS485 interface operates by means of differential voltages. For this reason it is
less sensitive to external interference than a pure voltage or current based interface.
n The network may be configured as linear or as tree structure.
n Due to the bus structure of RS485 it is possible to connect or disconnect any station
without interruption to the system. Extensions to the system do not affect stations that
have already been commissioned. New and failed stations are detected automatically.

Addressing Every device on the PROFIBUS is identified by an address. This address must be an
unique number in the bus system for System SLIO between 1 and 125.

GSD file For every PROFIBUS slave from VIPA there is a GSD file available. This file may be
found at the download area of www.vipa.com. Please install the required files into your
configuration tool. Details on the installation of the GSD and/or type files are available
from the manual supplied with your configuration tool. Structure and content of the GSD
file are dictated by the PROFIBUS User Organization (PNO) and may be retrieved there.
After the installation of the GSD file you will find this entry e.g. the DP-V1 slave in the
hardware catalog from Siemens at:
PROFIBUS DP > Additional field devices > I/O > VIPA_SLIO > VIPA 053-1DP00 (DPV1)
The assignment of the GSD-file to your slave is shown in the following table:

 Deployment VIPA System SLIO
Basics

Communication The bus transfer protocol provides two alternatives for the access to the bus:
n Master with master
– Master communication is also referred to as token-passing procedure. The token-
passing procedure guarantees the accessibility of the bus.
– The permission to access the bus is transferred between individual devices in the
form of a "token". The token is a special message that is transferred via the bus.
– When a master is in possession of the token it has the permission to access the
bus and it can communicate with any active or passive device.
– The token retention time is defined when the system is configured.
– Once the token retention time has expired, the token is passed to the following
master which now has permission to access the bus and may therefore communi-
cate with any other device.
n Master slave procedure
– Data communication between a master and the slaves assigned to it is conducted
automatically in a predefined and repetitive cycle by the master.
– You assign a slave to a specific master when you define the project. You can also
define which DP slaves are included and which are excluded from the cyclic
exchange of data.
– Data communication between master and slave can be divided into a parameteri-
zation, a configuration and a data transfer phase. Before a DP slave is included in
the data transfer phase the master checks whether the defined configuration cor-
responds with the actual configuration. This check is performed during the defini-
tion and configuration phase. The verification includes the device type, format and
length information as well as the number of inputs and outputs. In this way a reli-
able protection from configuration errors is achieved.
– The master handles the transfer of application related data independently and
automatically. You can, however, also send new configuration settings to a bus
coupler.
– When the status of the master is DE "Data Exchange" it transmits a new series of
output data to the slave and the reply from the slave contains the latest input
data.

Functionality DP-V0 provides the basic functionality of DP, including cycle data exchange as well as
station diagnostic, module diagnostic and channel-specific diagnostic. Data is transferred
cyclically between the DP master and the DP slave by means of transmit and receive buf-
fers.

PII process image of the inputs

PIQ process image of the outputs

Bus cycle A bus cycle saves all the input data from the modules in the PII and all the output data
from the PIQ in the output modules. When the data has been saved the PII is transferred
into the ”buffer send” and the contents of the ”buffer receive” is transferred into PIQ.

DP cycle During a PROFIBUS cycle the master addresses all its slaves according to the sequence
defined in the data exchange. The data exchange reads and writes data from/into the
memory areas assigned to the PROFIBUS. The contents of the PROFIBUS input area is
entered into the ”buffer receive” and the data in the ”buffer send” is transferred into the
PROFIBUS output area. The exchange of data between DP master and DP slave is com-
pleted cyclically and it is independent from the bus cycle.

4.1.2 Acyclic data communication (DP-V1)

Functionality The key feature of version DP-V1 is the extended function for acyclic data communica-
tion. This forms the requirement for parameterization and calibration of the field devices
over the bus during runtime and for the introduction of confirmed interrupt messages.
This forms the requirement for parameterization and calibration of the field devices over
the bus during runtime and for the introduction of confirmed interrupt messages.

The DPM 1 (Master Class 1) has the token and is able to send messages to or retrieve
them from slave 1, then slave 2, etc. in a fixed sequence until it reaches the last slave of
the current list (MS0 channel). It then passes on the token to the DPM 2 (Master Class 2).
This master can then use the remaining available time ("gap") of the programmed cycle to
set up an acyclic connection to any slave (e.g. slave 3) to exchange records (MS2
channel). At the end of the current cycle time it returns the token to the DPM1. The acy-
clic exchange of records can last for several scan cycles on their "gaps”. At the end, the
DPM 2 uses the gap to clear the connection. Similarly as well as the DPM 2, the DPM 1
can also execute acyclic data exchange with slaves (MS1 channel).

Please consider the System SLIO power and clamp modules do not have
any module ID. These may not be recognized by the PROFIBUS coupler
and so are not listed respectively considered during slot allocation.
Further within PROFIBUS the slots are designated as PROFIBUS-Slot.
The counting always begins with 1. periphery module.

Addressing with n When addressing data, PROFIBUS assumes that the physical structure of the slaves
PROFIBUS-Slot and Index is modular or it can be structured internally in logical functional units, so-called
modules. This model is also used in the basic DP functions for cyclic data communi-
cation where each module has a constant number of input-/output bytes that are
transmitted in a fixed position in the user data telegram.
n The addressing procedure is based on identifiers, which characterize a module type
as input, output or a combination of both. All identifiers combined produce the config-
uration of the slave, which is also checked by the DPM when the system starts up.
The acyclic data communication is also based on this model.

VIPA System SLIO Deployment
Basics > Acyclic data communication (DP-V1)

n All record sets enabled for read/write access are also regarded as assigned to the
modules and can be addressed using PROFIBUS-Slot and index. The PROFIBUS-
Slot addresses the module and the index addresses the record sets of a module.
n The PROFIBUS-Slot = 0 addresses data of the PROFIBUS coupler, PROFIBUS-Slot
> 0 addresses the data of the function module(s).
n Each record set can be up to 240bytes.
n Compact devices are used as a unit of virtual modules. These can also be addressed
with PROFIBUS-Slot and index.
n Through the length specification in the read/write request, it is also possible to read/
write parts of a record set.

For the addressing at the deployment of the Siemens SIMATIC Manager

the following conventions are valid:
– DP slave coupler:
– Setting of the diagnostic address as ID
– Modules of the DP slave coupler:
– Setting of the module address as ID. For an output module you
have to set additionally bit 15 of the module address (e.g. address
0004h becomes 8004h).
– With a combination module you have to set the lower one of the
two addresses.

Services acyclic data com- For the deployment of the DP-V1 services you have to take care that your master system
munication supports DP-V1 communication. More detailed information about this may be found in the
description of your master system. There are the following handling blocks available for
CPUs, programmable with Siemens STEP7, like SPEED7 CPUs from VIPA:
n SFB 52: Read record set from a DP slave
n SFB 53: Write record set to a DP slave
n SFB 54: Receive interrupt from a DP slave

In the following the services for the acyclic data transfer that are using
that function blocks are shown.
More detailed information about the services and the DP-V0/V1 commu-
nication may be found in the PROFIBUS norm IEC 61158.

DPM 1 (Master class 1)

Services for acyclic data communication between DPM 1 and slaves
Read The master reads a record set from the slave.
Write The master writes a record set to the slave.
Interrupt An interrupt is transmitted from the slave to the master,
which explicitly acknowledges receipt. The slave can only
send a new interrupt message after it has received this
acknowledgment; this prevents any interrupt being over-
written.
Interrupt_Acknowledge The master acknowledges receipt of an interrupt to the
slave.

 Deployment VIPA System SLIO
Basics > Acyclic data communication (DP-V1)

Status A status message is transmitted from the slave to the

master. There is no acknowledgment.
Data transmission is connection-oriented over a MS1 connection. This is set up by the
DPM 1 and is closely linked to the connection for cyclic data communication. It can be
used by the master that has parameterized and configured the respective slave.

DPM 2 (Master class 2)

Services for acyclic data communication between DPM 2 and slaves
Initiate / Abort Setup respectively termination of a connection for acyclic
data communication between DPM 2 and slave.
Read The master reads a record set from the slave.
Write The master writes a record set to the slave.
Data_Transport The master can write application-specific data (specified
in profiles) a cyclically to the slave and if required, read
data from the slave in the same cycle.
Data transmission is connection-oriented over a MS2 connection. This is set up before
the start of the acyclic data communication by the DPM 2 using the Initiate service. The
connection is then available for Read, Write and Data_Transport services. The connec-
tion is terminated correspondingly. A slave can maintain several active MS2 connec-
tions simultaneously. A limitation is given by the resources available in the slave.

4.3 Project engineering

General The configuration happens as hardware configuration in your PROFIBUS DP master
engineering tool such as the Siemens SIMATIC Manager. Here you assign the according
PROFIBUS DP slave module to the DP master. A direct assignment takes place via the
PROFIBUS address that you set at the DP slave address selector and in the DP slave
properties. By installing the corresponding GSD file the IM 053DP is listed at the hard-
ware catalog as "VIPA_053-1DP00 (DP-V0 or DP-V1)". You'll find this at:
PROFIBUS DP > Additional Field devices > I/O > VIPA_SLIO

GSD file For every PROFIBUS slave from VIPA there is a GSD file available. This file may be
found at the download area of www.vipa.com. Please install the required files into your
configuration tool. Details on the installation of the GSD and/or type files are available
from the manual supplied with your configuration tool. Structure and content of the GSD
file are dictated by the PROFIBUS User Organization (PNO) and may be retrieved there.
After the installation of the GSD file you will find this entry e.g. the DP-V1 slave in the
hardware catalog from Siemens at:

4.4 DP-V1 services

Overview For the deployment of the DP-V1 services you have to take care that your master system
supports DP-V1 communication. More detailed information about this may be found in the
description of your master system. There are the following handling blocks available for
CPUs, programmable with Siemens STEP7, like SPEED7 CPUs from VIPA:
n SFB 52: Read record set from a DP slave
n SFB 53: Write record set to a DP slave
n SFB 54: Receive interrupt from a DP slave
Per default, one class-1 master and max 3 class-2 master connection with 244byte data
(4byte DP-V1 header plus 240byte user data) are supported. The class-1 master connec-
tion is established together with the cyclic connection and is activated via the parameteri-
zation. The class-2 master connection can be used by a C2 master that then communi-
cates with the slave only a cyclical and provides an own connection establishment.

Data of the DP-V1 slave To access the record sets of the DP-V1 coupler, as ID the diagnostics address is to be
used, which you have specified in the properties of the hardware configuration. Using the
following record set no. as Index you get access for reading (R) respectively writing (W)

Overview
n Identification and maintenance data (I&M) are stored information in a module which
support you at:
– Check of the system configuration
– Discover of hardware changes
– Remove errors in a system
n Identification data (I data) are information of the module e.g. order number, serial
number, which can be found printed at the module.
n I data are manufacturer information and can only be read.
n Maintenance data (M data) are information like location and date of installation.
n M data were produced and stored during project engineering. By means of I&M data
the modules can online be identified.

Only one DP master may access at one time the I&M data of a
PROFIBUS coupler.

n A master has always been deployed together with a CPU.
n PROFIBUS supports max. 126 participants.
n Per segment a max. of 32 participants is permitted.
n The max. segment length depends on the transfer rate:
9.6 ... 187.5bit/s ® 1000m
500kbit/s ® 400m
1.5Mbit/s ® 200m
3 ... 12Mbit/s ® 100m
n Max. 10 segments may be built up. The segments are connected via repeaters. Every
repeater counts for one participant.
n The bus respectively a segment is to be terminated at both ends.
n All participants are communicating with the same transfer rate. The slaves adjust
themselves automatically on the transfer rate.

Transfer medium n As transfer medium PROFIBUS uses an isolated twisted-pair cable based upon the
RS485 interface.
n The RS485 interface is working with voltage differences. Though it is less irritable
from influences than a voltage or a current interface. You are able to configure the
network as well linear as in a tree structure.
n Max. 32 participants per segment are permitted. Within a segment the members are
linear connected. The segments are connected via repeaters. The maximum segment
length depends on the transfer rate.
n PROFIBUS DP uses a transfer rate between 9.6kbit/s and 12Mbit/s, the slaves are
following automatically. All participants are communicating with the same transfer
rate.
n The bus structure under RS485 allows an easy connection res. disconnection of sta-
tions as well as starting the system step by step. Later expansions don’t have any
influence on stations that are already integrated. The system realizes automatically if
one partner had a fail down or is new in the network.

station.

In PROFIBUS all participants are wired parallel. For that purpose, the bus cable must be
feed-through. Via the order number 972-0DP10 you may order the bus connector "Easy-
Conn" from VIPA. This is a bus connector with switchable terminating resistor and inte-
grated bus diagnostic.

Diagnostic functions

4.7 Diagnostic functions

Structure of the PROFIBUS DP provides an extensive set of diagnostic functions for quick error localiza-
053-1DP00 diagnostic data tion. Diagnostic messages are transferred via the bus and collected by the master. There
the diagnostic data may be accessed e.g. by your configuration tool. The diagnostic mes-
sages that are created by the PROFIBUS slave have, depending on the parameteriza-
tion, a length of 122byte. As soon as the PROFIBUS slave sends a diagnostic to the
master, the max. of 122byte diagnostic data are prepended by 6byte standard diagnostic
data:

Byte 0 ... 5 Standard diagnostic data

Is only prepended at transfer to the master via PROFIBUS.
x ... x+8 Identifier-related diagnostic may be enabled or disabled via parameterization
x ... x+19 Module status
max. 21× Channel-related diagnostic
(x ... x+2)
x ... x+20 Interrupt

Standard diagnostic data At the transfer of a diagnostic to the master the slave standard diagnostic data are pre-
pended to the diagnostic bytes. More detailed information to the structure of the slave
standard diagnostic data can be found in the standard papers of the PROFIBUS User
Organization.

Diagnostics with Siemens In Siemens SIMATIC S7 there are functions integrated for processing diagnostic data.
STEP®7 Here depending on cause the following OBs are called:
n OB 40: Hardware interrupt
n OB 57: Vendor specific interrupt
n OB 82: Diagnostics interrupt
n OB 86: Slave failure
With the corresponding OB you may react to the cause. For example you can analyse the
relevant record sets by means of handling blocks, which your System SLIO provides. If
the OB does not exist the CPU goes to STOP.
With the following handling blocks the record sets may be accessed:
n SFC 13: Read diagnostic data of a DP salve
n SFB 52: Read record set
n SFB 53: Write record set
n SFB 54: Read interrupt data from a DP-V1 slave
Here among others via ID the diagnostics address of your PROFIBUS coupler and via
INDEX the record set number is to be entered.

More information about the usage of the handling blocks may be found in
the operating of your CPU.

Firmware update

4.8 Firmware update

Overview A firmware update for the DP slave is currently only possible by means of PROFIBUS via
a master system and the Siemens hardware configurator. Here, your firmware from the
hardware configurator is routed online to the CPU, which forwards the firmware with the
connected DP master via PROFIBUS to the corresponding DP slave.

Please note that a firmware update is only possible from hardware

release 06 an up.

Proceeding
CAUTION!
When installing a new firmware you have to be extremely careful. Under
certain circumstances you may destroy the DP slave, for example if the
power supply is interrupted during transfer or if the firmware file is faulty.
In this case, please call our service!

1. The latest firmware can be found in the service area of www.vipa.com. Unzip the file
and copy the header.upd file to your working directory.
2. Open the Siemens hardware configurator with the configured DP slave.
3. Click on the DP slave and select ‘PLC è Update firmware’. This menu option is
only available when the highlighted DP slave supports the function "Update firm-
ware ".
ð The dialog ‘Update firmware’ opens.
4. Choose your work directory via the button [Search] and select the header.upd file.
ð You will see information for which modules and from which firmware version on
the chosen file is convenient.
5. Activate the check box ‘Activate firmware after loading’ and click on [Execute].
ð The selected file is checked for validity and transferred as firmware to the
selected DP slave if the check is positive.

During operation, a firmware update takes place on the DP slave after

approx. 3s. Here the SF and MT LEDs flash alternately. Please note that
in this case a restart is made by the DP slave, whereby the DP master
could remain in STOP or your application program could be affected.
