Glossary
Logical address of a module in S7 systems.
Bus parameters control the data transmission on the bus. Each ->
station on the -> PROFIBUS network must use bus parameters that
match those of other stations.
Part of a -> subnet. Subnets can consist of bus segments and
connectivity devices such as repeaters and bridges. Segments are
transparent for addressing.
Communication Function Block: A communication technique for
program-controlled transmission of data from or to a CPU in an S7-
300/400 using special function blocks. These function blocks were
defined based on the IEC 1131-5 draft. The communication partners
can be other modules with communication capabilities in an
S7-300/400, operator stations, PCs or other controllers and computers.
Communications Processor. Module for communication tasks.
Device master data (GSD) contain DP slave descriptions complying
with EN 50 170, Volume 2. Using device master data makes
configuration of the -> DP master and -> DP slaves easier.
Input and output modules used at a distance (distributed) from the CPU
(central processing unit of the controller). The connection between the
programmable controller and the distributed I/Os is established on ->
PROFIBUS. The programmable logic controllers do not recognize any
difference between these I/Os and local process inputs and outputs.
DP slaves have a modular design. A -> DP slave has at least one DP
I/O module.
The DP I/O type identifies a -> DP I/O module. The following types
exist:
Input module
Output module
Input/output module
A -> station with master functions in -> PROFIBUS DP. The DP master
controls the exchange of user data with the -> DP slaves assigned to it.
The DP module list contains the modules belonging to a -> DP slave.
You make entries in the DP module list when configuring a -> DP
master with -> COM PROFIBUS.
Name of a -> DP I/O module entered in the ->DP module list.
