• PROFIBUS device data files (GSD) which can be also downloaded from the manufacturer's

internet site

1.3 Special notes

Don't switch off (power off) the signal converter immediately after manual change of parameter
values:

• Please wait approx. 10 seconds before you switch off the signal converter after you have done
both a parameter download via PROFIBUS or a manual change of a parameter value via the
local display.

CAUTION!

Please wait approx. 15 seconds before you switch off the signal converter after you have carried
out a "Factory Reset" (PROFIBUS "Coldstart") via PROFIBUS or local display.

"Deactivation of the Service Parameter Lock" of the signal converter via PROFIBUS:

• After writing down the service password (via PROFIBUS) the "Deactivation of the Service
Parameter Lock" will last at least 20 minutes if the internal password timer of the signal

2.5 GSD files for the data transfer

A PROFIBUS GSD ZIP file (e.g. GSD-31777815.zip; including both all GSD files and additional data
files) you can get on a CD ROM or can be downloaded from the internet. The GSD file contains
information that will be needed for project planning of the PROFIBUS communication network.

The relevant data files (e.g. _ _ _ _ .bmp / _ _ _ _ .dib) must be loaded into the bus configuration
system/master system before start-up of the bus system.

2.5.1 Cyclic data exchange

During network configuration the user has to define which function block outputs of the signal
converter should be transferred cyclically to the master. Network configuration will be done
using one of the GSD files described before. The order of transmission of a function block always
remains the same even if a function block is defined as an "Empty" block (if so, no function block
output data will be sent to the master and all function block outputs following the empty block

output data will be sent to the master and all function block outputs following the empty block

output data will be sent to the master and all function block outputs following the empty block output data will be sent to the master and all function block outputs following the empty block
will move up one position)

will move up one position)will move up one position)

2.5.2 Baud rate

MFC 300

(if so, no function block

(if so, no function block (if so, no function block

Supported baud rates are listed in the GSD file. After power-on or PROFIBUS timeout a baud rate
search is active to detect the current transfer speed on the bus. It is not necessary to set the
baud rate manually.

If the data transmission rate is changed during operation the baud rate search will not be started
by the device. A new power-up or a manual interruption of the PROFIBUS communication is
required to activate the baud rate search in this case.

2.5.3 Ident.-No. supported

The signal converter with PROFIBUS RS485 interface is based on PROFIBUS PA Profile V 3.0. The
device supports two Ident-No.:

• Ident-No. "4510hex" belongs to the GSD file KR014510.GSD and includes the complete
functionality of the Coriolis mass flowmeter.

• The application of the manufacturer independent Ident-No. "9742hex" (GSD file
"PA039742.GSD") provides interchangeability of devices, i.e. an exchange of Coriolis mass
flowmeters of different vendors.

Please follow the instructions in the manual of the host supplier when installing the GSD File you
need and the additional files (_ _ _ _ .bmp and _ _ _ _ .dib) into the PLC.

INFORMATION!

If separated by the bus configuration system the device entry of the PROFIBUS RS485 interface
with PA Profile 3.0 will be located within the slave family PROFIBUS PA.

There are separate settings to select the units for local display and PROFIBUS. Modifications of
the units of the display will have no effect on the data transferred via PROFIBUS.
A master class 2 tool is required to modify the units for PROFIBUS transfer.

INFORMATION!

During network configuration the user has to define which function block outputs of the signal
converter should be transferred cyclically to the master. This is performed by a bus
configuration tool (e.g. "HW- Config" for PC-S7 from Siemens). This tool offers specific functions
as follows:

1. It is possible to configure an "Empty" block (the code of an "Empty" block is defined as 0x00) on

each block number. This implies: no data are transmitted in the cyclic data telegram for this
block.

2. There is NO "Totaliser (TOT)" function block allowed on block position 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11!

On these positions, only an "Analog Input (AI)" function block or an "Empty" block is allowed!

–

(Note: All codes supported by "Analog Input (AI)" - and "Totaliser (TOT)"

function blocks will

be found in the corresponding GSD files.)

3. There is NO "Analog Input (AI)" function block allowed on block position 4, 5 and 6! On these

positions, only a "Totaliser (TOT)" function block or an "Empty" block is allowed!

4. There is a choice of 7 different totaliser functions, which can be allocated to the blocks 4, 5

and/or 6.

Definition of totaliser functions

Total cyclic transfer of the totaliser value with status to the master

SetTot + Total cyclic transfer of the totaliser value with status to the master + cyclic

ModeTot + Total cyclic transfer of the totaliser value with status to the master + cyclic

SetTot + ModeTot + Total cyclic transfer of the totaliser value with status to the master + cyclic

SetTot cyclic control data from master to the device via the parameter

ModeTot cyclic control data from master to the device via the parameter

SetTot + ModeTot cyclic control data from master to the device via the parameters

Both, the Byte SetTot and ModeTot are cyclically sent from the master to the device if these bytes
are inserted as output data via the PLC configurator. The meaning of these control bytes are as
follows:

The standard block configuration may be changed by the customer but using the default settings
is highly recommended. If the standard block configuration should be changed by the customer
an acyclic master tool or the device display menu must be used to change the "channel
parameter" value of the block which should be connected to another transducer output value.

3.2 System configuration of PROFIBUS PA network

The following diagram shows a typical instrumentation with PROFIBUS PA devices with MBP
interface in hazardous and non-hazardous locations, including connections of conventional
devices (e.g. with 4...20 mA signals) in a PROFIBUS network.

As a rule, the PROFIBUS PA segment is connected to a segment coupler which, among other
things, carries out the conversion to the PROFIBUS DP bus line. It should be mentioned that the
segment coupler is normally set to a fixed baud rate on the DP side.

INFORMATION!

During network configuration the user has to define which function block outputs of the signal
converter should be transferred cyclically to the master. This is performed by a bus
configuration tool (e.g. "HW- Config" for PC-S7 from Siemens). This tool offers specific functions
as follows:

1. It is possible to configure an "Empty" block (the code of an "Empty" block is defined as 0x00) on

each block number. This implies: no data are transmitted in the cyclic data telegram for this
block.

2. There is NO "Totaliser (TOT)" function block allowed on block position 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11!

On these positions, only an "Analog Input (AI)" function block or an "Empty" block is allowed!
(Note: All codes supported by "Analog Input (AI)" - and "Totaliser (TOT)"
be found in the corresponding GSD files.)

3. There is NO "Analog Input (AI)" function block allowed on block position 4, 5 and 6! On these

positions, only a "Totaliser (TOT)" function block or an "Empty" block is allowed!

4. There is a choice of 7 different totaliser functions, which can be allocated to the blocks 4, 5

and/or 6.

The standard block configuration may be changed by the customer but using the default settings
is highly recommended. If the standard block configuration should be changed by the customer
an acyclic master tool or the device display menu must be used to change the "channel
parameter" value of the block which should be connected to another transducer output value.

3.6.2 Manufacturer specific GSD files (PA): KROHE801.GSD and YP01E801.GSD for the

older signal converter MFC050/051 with PROFIBUS MBP interface

The PROFIBUS signal converter with MBP Interface operating in the MFC050/051 compatibility
mode ensures operation with a PLC system with software parameters based on the
MFC050/051PA. This option is important for those customers who do not want to change the
parameters in the PLC software after having replaced the MFC050/051PA by an MFC300 with
PROFIBUS MBP interface. The existing GSD files of the MFC050/051PA ("KROHE801.GSD" or
"YP01E801.GSD") can still be used.

In this application, the compatibility mode of the MFC300 with PROFIBUS MBP interface has to
be selected (display menu D2.2.4 - Identification No. -> choose MFC050/051); some other entries
have to be performed in a next step.

In order to provide communication between "MFC300 with PROFIBUS MBP interface" and the

PLC, you may - in principle – use the GSD of the "MFC050/051PA" ("KROHE801.GSD" or
"YP01E801.GSD") and –alternatively - the GSD of the "MFC300 with PROFIBUS MBP interface"

("KR014511.GSD" or "YP014511.GSD") which performs full functionality of the "MFC300 with
PROFIBUS MBP interface".

INFORMATION!

The "MFC050/051 compatibility mode" is not recommended for MFC300 PROFIBUS module with
RS485 interface. The GSD file has to be exchanged because of its different timings and supported
baud rates. Nevertheless the feature is not blocked in this case because RS485 interface will
operate under the MFC050/051 conditions, too. The user has to take care about the different bus
connections.

If the GSDs of the "MFC050/051PA" ("KROHE801.GSD" or "YP01E801.GSD") are used…

• The MFC050/051PA parameter set for the PLC control software will be maintained, i.e. there
is no adaptation needed with reference to the replaced interface of the MFC300 with
PROFIBUS MBP interface.

• In this usage of the GSD the PA Profile 3.0
replacements.

• Compatibility is restricted to the PROFIBUS MS0 services. In addition the "MFC050/051
status" is provided for AI Block and Totalizer outputs if the related parameters are accessed
via acyclic MS2 services and "MFC050/051 compatibility mode" is enabled. This is to get a
unique value independent from the access mechanism.

• There is no further compatibility mode regarding the acyclic parameter access, i.e. MFC300
Device Description or DTM has to be used even if "MFC050/051 compatibility mode" is
enabled. This mode does not provide mechanical or electrical compatibility (i.e. housing size
and connector positions, measuring sensor, power consumption, etc.).

• If an MFC300 signal converter is operating in "MFC050/051 compatibility mode" its
functionality is restricted to the MFC050/051 features, e.g. there will be no possibility to
transfer more than two Totalizer Function Block outputs. MS1 services, i.e. acyclic parameter
accesses by a master class 1, are not supported in "MFC050/051 compatibility mode".

PA Profile 3.0 functionality is provided in the PLC for both

PA Profile 3.0PA Profile 3.0

If the GSD of "MFC300 with PROFIBUS MBP interface” (KR014511.GSD or
YP014511.GSD) is used…

• The MFC050/051PA parameter set for the PLC control software has to be adapted with
reference to the MFC300 PROFIBUS MPB interface.

• In this usage of the GSD the PA Profile 3.0
of the "MFC300 with PROFIBUS MBP interface" are being made available.

INFORMATION!

Even if the PROFIBUS module is operating in "MFC050/051 compatibility mode" the behaviour
might be different from MFC050/051 devices. Because of additional self-tests warnings or
failure messages may occur under conditions when MFC050/051 will not report any problem.
Unexpected status messages may occur.
There is no warranty that MFC300 PROFIBUS PA devices can replace the MFC050/051 PA device
in any case without modifications of the PLC/PCS software.

4.1 Function blocks

The PROFIBUS MBP interface is based on the PROFIBUS PA Profile Version 3.0 and supports the
following blocks:

• 1 physical block.
This block contains the parameters defined in PA Profile 3.0.

• 1 transducer block for Coriolis mass flow devices.
This block provides the parameters and functions defined in PA Profile 3.0.

• 8 Analog Input (AI) function blocks.
As default: Mass Flow / Density / Medium Temperature / Volume Flow / Concentration 1 /
Concentration 2 / Concentration Mass Flow 1 / Concentration Mass Flow 2 /.

• 3 totalizer (TOT) function blocks.
As default the first and the third totalizers will totalize "Mass" and the second one will totalize
"Volume".

4.2 Data structure of function block output values

The data structure of function block outputs consists of 5 bytes: a 4 byte float value (Float Format
according IEEE Standard 754 Short Real Number) followed by a 1 byte status value. If all 11
function block outputs have been configured (see above), 55 bytes will be transmitted.

• Bad:

Bad: function block output value is bad - don’t use it for process control!

Bad:Bad:

The "Quality-Substatus" and "Limit" bits will be used for further diagnostics or limit checking.

INFORMATION!

The status should be monitored because a number will be transmitted even if the status of the
measurement value is bad or uncertain. This is the only way to check the quality of the
