S7-SoftPLC:cifX PROFIBUS® configuration via S7 for Windows®/STEP®7

User Interface

Use PROFIBUS^® configuration from PLC

Takes the PROFIBUS^® configuration created with S7 for Windows^®/STEP^®7. The bus will be configured and operated with these parameters from the PLC.

Enable PU/OP functions via PROFIBUS^® DP

Allows a PU-communication via the PROFIBUS^® to S7-SoftPLC. Some OP's (as e.g. OP3) use PU-communication for data exchange with the PLC, so that these panels can be used as well. 1)

Activate DPV-1 functions on the PROFIBUS^®

Allows sending and receiving DPV1 functions to DPV1 slaves. SFB52 and SFB53 are available for DPV1 services.*

1) The bus configuration has to be created with S7 for Windows^® hardware configuration or STEP^®7 hardware configuration.
The configuration has to be created exclusively with General Station Description (GSD)

Settings

In the section [CIFX] PROFIBUS^® specific settings are conducted. The settings are necessary, if the bus configuration is to be created with the S7 for Windows^® hardware configuration or the STEP^®7 hardware configuration.
