The device reads the position of the selector switches immediately after being energized.
The assigned address is kept constant during device operation, even if the position of the
selector switches is changed. Therefore, to change the device’s Profibus address it is
necessary to change the position of the selector switches to encode the new address, turn off
and re-energize the device.
GSD file installation
The GSD (General Station Description) file supplied with the LMP-100 details all the
features and characteristics of the device. The file must be installed within the Profibus master
configuration software. The GSD file installation procedure is manufacturer specific, so it is
recommended to consult the respective Profibus master user manual.
After proper installation of the GSD file, the entire configuration of the LMP-100 is done
through the Profibus master configuration software.
For the compact version of the device, use the
DLG_0D8A.gsd
file. For the modular
version of the equipment (/M), use the
DLG_0E6C.gsd
file.
Module configuration (LMP-100/M)
The LMP-100 modular option gives the user the power to size appropriately the number of
bytes transferred in the Profibus input and output buffers. The GSD file defines input and output
modules of several sizes which are handled by users in the Profibus master configuration tool.
The following modules are available:
1 word input
2 words input
4 words input
8 words input
16 words input
1 word output
2 words output
4 words output
8 words output
16 words output
1 word = 2 bytes
Modules must be allocated so that the Profibus input and output buffers have enough
space to store data produced by the Modbus rules. The Modbus rule concept and how to
calculate the amount of data produced by them are described in the “Modbus rule configuration”
section.
