OMRON Units complying with EC Directives also conform to related EMC
standards making them eas ie r t o i ncorporate in other Un its or machines. The
actual products have been checked for conformity to EMC standards. (See
the following note.) Whether the products conform to the standards in the system used by the customer, however, must be checked by the customer.
EMC-related performance of OMRON Units complying with EC Directives will
vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other conditions of the equipment or control panel in which OMRON devices are installed. The customer
must, therefore, perform final checks to confir m th at units a nd th e overall system conforms to EMC standards.

SECTION 1
Features and Specifications
This section provides an introductory overview of PROFIBUS, its functions and how to setup and configure a network. It
also addresses the PROFIBUS-DP Master Units and the Configurator, their features and specifications.
Standard EN50170rPROFIBUS (PROcess FIeldBUS) is an open fieldbus standard for a wide
range of applications in manufacturing, processing and building automation.
The Standard, EN 50170 (the Euronorm for field communications), to wh ich
PROFIBUS adheres, guarantees vendor independence and transparen cy of
operation. It enables devices of various manufacturers to intercommunicate
without having to make any special interface adaptations.
The PROFIBUS family comprises three mutually compatible versions:
PROFIBUS-FMS, PROFIBUS-DP a nd PROFIBUS -PA.
PROFIBUS-FMSFMS means Fieldbus Message Specification. This version is the general-pur-
pose solution for high-level extensive and complex communication tasks.
Powerful services open up a wide range of applications and provide great
flexibility.
PROFIBUS-DPDP means Decentralized Periphery. PROFIBUS-DP is optimized for high
speed and low-cost interfacing. It is specially designed for communication
between automation control systems and distributed I/O at the device level.
PROFIBUS-PAPA means Process Automation. It permits sensors and actuators to be con-
nected to one common bus even in areas where intrinsically safe products are
required. It also permits data and power to be supplied over the bus using
2-wire technology according the international standard IEC 1158-2.
Uniform Bus Access
Protocol
!Caution It is not possible to exchange one of these family members by another family
PROFIBUS-DP and PROFIBUS-FMS use the same transmission technology
and uniform bus access protocol. Consequently, both versions can be operated simultaneously on the s am e bus. FMS field devices, however, cannot be
controlled by DP masters and vice versa.
member. This will cause faulty operation.
The rest of this section describes the PROFIBUS-DP Protocol architecture.
1-1-2PROFIBUS Communication Protocol
OSI reference model
ISO-7498
In general, the PROFIBUS communication protocol is based on the Open
System Interconnection (O SI) reference model in accordance with the international standard ISO-7498 (see the following illustration). It defines c ommunication layers 1, 2, and 7.
• Layer 1, the Physical Layer o f this model, defines the physical transmission characteristics.
• Layer 2, the Data Link Layer of this model, defines the bus access protocol. This protocol also includ es data security and the handling of transmission protocols and telegrams.

OSI Layer 1, 2 and user
interface
PROFIBUS-DP uses layers 1 and 2, and the user interface. Layers 3 to 7 are
not defined for PROFIBUS-DP. The User interface Layer defines the interface
functions for specific application areas, i.e. the PROFIBUS-DP basic functions
and communication profiles.This streamlined architecture ensures fast and
efficient data transmission. The appl ication functions whi ch are available to
the user, as well as the system and device behaviour of the various PROFIBUS-DP device types, are specified in the user interface.
OSI Layer 1: T ransmission
medium
RS-485 transmission technology or fibre optics are available for transmission.
RS-485 transmission is the most frequently used transmission technology. Its
application area includes all areas in which h igh transmiss ion spee d and s imple inexpensive installation are required. PROFIBUS modules are interconnected by single twisted-pair shielded copper wires.
RS-485 tech n olo g yThe RS-485 transmission technology is very easy to handle. Installation of the
twisted pair cable does not require expert knowledge. The bus structure permits addition and removal of stations or step-by-step commissioning of the
system without influencing the other stations. Later expansions have no effect
on stations which are already in operation.
RS-485 Transmission
speed
Transmission speeds between 9.6 kbit/s and 12 Mbit/s can be selected as
shown in the table below. One unique transmission speed must sel ected for
all devices on the bus (master and slave devices) when the system is commissioned

Cable lengthThe maximum cable length values depend on the transmission speed and are
based on type-A cable (see
Cable Type
). The length can be increased by the
use of repeaters.However, it is not recommended to use more than three
repeaters in series in a PROFIBUS network.

Overview of PROFIBUS
Section 1-1
1-1-3Device Types
PROFIBUS distinguishes between master devices and slave devices.
Master devicesMaster devices determine the data communication on the bus. A Master can
send messages without an external request, as long as it holds the bus
access right (the token). Masters are also referred to as active stations in the
PROFIBUS standard.
There are two types of master devices:
Class 1 Master (DPM1)A PROFIBUS-DP Class 1 Master (DPM1) device is a central controller, which
exchanges information with the decentralized stations (i.e. DP slaves) within a
specified message cycle.
Class 2 Master (DPM2)PROFIBUS-DP class 2 Master (DPM2) devices are programmers, configura-
tion devices or operator panels. They are used during commissioning, for configuration of the DP system, or for operation and monitoring pur poses.
The CS1W-PRM21 and the CJ1W-PRM21 are bot h PROFIBUS-DP Class 1
Master devices.
Slave devicesSlave devices are peripheral devices. Typical slave devices include input/out-
put devices, valves, drives, and measuring transmitters. They do not have bus
access rights and they can only acknowledge received messages or send
messages to the master when requested to do so. Slaves are also called passive stations
Device profileTo enable the exchange of devices from different vendors, the user data has
to have the same format. The PROFIBUS-DP protocol does not define the
format of user data, it is only responsible for the transmission of this data. The
format of user data may be def ined in so called pro files. Profiles can reduce
engineering costs since the meaning of application-related parameters is
specified precisely. Profiles have been defined for specific areas like drive
technology, encoders, and for sensors / actuators.

used to handle the bus access between master devices, and a polling procedure is used to h andle the communication b etween a master device and its
assigned slave device(s).
is assigned to each master within a precisely defined time frame. The token
message, a special message for passing access rights from one master to the
next master, must be passed around the logical token ring - once to each
master - within a specified target rotation time. Each master executes this procedure automatically. A user can only change the target rotation time, but is
not recommended.
Polling procedure The po lling or m aster-slave proce dure perm its the m aster, currently in pos-
session of the token, to access its assigned slaves. The figure below shows a
possible configuration The configuration shows three active stations (masters) and six passive stations (slaves).

The three masters form a logical token ring. When an active station receives
the token message, it can perform its master role for a certain period of time.
During this time it can communicate with all assigned slave stations in a master-slave communication relationship, and a DPM 2 master can take th e i nitiative to communicate with DPM1 master stations in a master-master
communication relationship.
Multi-peer communicationIn addition to logical peer-to-peer data transmission, PROFIBUS-DP provides
multi-peer communication (broadcast and multicast).
Broadcast communicationIn the case of broadcast communication a master station sends an unac-
knowledged message to all other stations (masters and slaves).
Multicast communicationIn the case of multicast comm unication a master station s ends an unacknow-
ledged message to a predetermined group of stations (masters and slaves).
1-1-5Diagnostic functions
Extensive DiagnosticsExtensive diagnostic functions defined in PROFIBUS-DP enable the fast loca-
tion of error at slave devices. Diagnostic messages are transmitted over the
bus and collected at the master. Three levels of diagnostic messages are
defined:
Device Related
Diagnostics
Module Related
Diagnostics
Channel Related
Diagnostics
• Messag es conc erning the general operat ional s tatus of the whole device,
e.g. over temperature, low voltage.
• Messages indicating that an error is present in a specific I/O range of a
station, e.g. an 8-bit output module.
• Messages indicating an error at a given input or output, e.g. short circuit
on Output 5.

Overview of PROFIBUS
Section 1-1
1-1-6Protection Mechanisms
Monitoring TimePROFIBUS-DP provides effective protection functions against parameteriza-
tion errors or failure of the transmission equipment. Time monitoring is provided both at the master and the slave devices. The monitoring interval is
specified when the system is configured.
Monitoring at the MasterThe PROFIBUS-DP Master monitors data transmission of the slaves with the
Data-Control-Timer. A separate control timer is used for each slave. This
timer expires if response data is not correctly transmitted by the slave within
the monitoring inter val. The user is informed when this happens. If the automatic error reaction (Auto-CLEAR) has been enabled, the PROFIBUS-DP
master exits its OPERATE state, switches the outputs of all assigned slaves
to the fail-safe status and changes to the CLEAR state.
Monitoring at the SlaveSlave devices use a watchdog to detect failures of the master or the bus. If
data communication with the master does not occur wi thin the set watchdog
time interval, a slave automatically switches its outputs to the fail-safe mode.
Also, access protection is provided for the inputs and outputs of the slaves
operating in multi-master systems. Only authorized masters can access their
slaves.
1-1-7Network States
PROFIBUS-DP distinguishes four different network states:
OFF-LINE• Communi cation with al l PROFIBUS-DP participants (masters and slaves)
is stopped. The Master ceases to access the PROFIBUS network.
STOP• Communica tion bet ween the master and its slaves is stopped. O nly com -
munication between the master and other masters is still possible.
CLEAR• The ma ster tries to s et parameters, check the configuration, and perform
data exchange with its associated slaves. Data exchange involves reading the inputs of the PROFIBUS-DP slaves and writing zeros to the outputs of the slaves.
OPERATE• The master exchanges data with its as signe d s laves, inputs are read a nd
outputs are written. Also, the master cyclically sends its local status to all
its assigned PROFIBUS-DP slaves (using a broadcast message).
Auto-CLEAR
Fail-safe State
If an error occurs during the data exchange phase of the master, the ‘AutoCLEAR’ function determines the subsequent actions. If this function has been
disabled, the master remains in the OPERATE state. If the function has been
enabled, the master automat ically changes the network to the CLEAR state,
in which the outputs of the assigned P ROFIBUS-DP slaves are switched to
zero, i.e. the ‘fail-safe’ state. The master continues to read the inputs of the
slaves.

Setting up a PROFIBUS-DP Network
Section 1-2
1-2Setting up a PROFIBUS-DP Network
1-2- 1Configuring the PROFIBUS-DP Master
In order to operate a PROFIBUS network, each m aster in the ne twork needs
to be configured. This process of PROFIBUS master configuration involves
• setting up the network topology, i.e. assigning the slave stations with
which the master will be exchanging data,
• def ining the para meter iz atio n dat a, w hich t he m ast er w ill se nd to each of
the slave devices, before process data exchange can commence
• defining the c onfiguration data, i.e. defining the process data, which will
be exchanged,
• setting up the bus parameters, which define the baud rate and the bus
timing parameters.
• downloading the configuration setup to the master device.
Configuration technologyThe configuration process is usually facilitated by a special Com puter based
program, often referred to as a Configurator. The Configurator requires special configuration files, defining the configuration options for each device,
which is to participate in data exchange. The files must be provided by the
manufacturer of the device.
Two types of configuration technology exist:
• Configuration technology based on FDT/DTM technology
• Configuration technology based on GSD-files
1-2-2FDT/DTM Technology
FDT/DTM technologyThe newer configuration tools are based on FDT/DTM technology.
FDT/DTM ConceptThe FDT/DTM concept specifies the interfaces between the enginee ring sys-
tems called Field Device Tools (FDT), and the device-specific software components called Device Type Managers (DTM).
The FDT/DTM concept separates the device dependent functionality (which is
in the DTM) from the application. It opens up interfaces for device configuration, monitoring and maintenanc e solutions, which before were largely manufacturer-specific interfaces. Because of this concept, FDT/DTM technology is
not limited to PROFIBUS applications. In concept, any type of network can be
configured and accessed, provided the appropriate DTMs are available.
FDT Container applicationA FDT container application facilitates configuration of network devices and
parameterizing and/or manipulating their operational modes. All device
dependent functionality is concentrated in the DTM.
FDT container applications can be stand-alone tools, or can be part of other
engineering tools such web browsers providing FDT interfaces.Since FDT
standardizes the interfaces, it allows devices from different manufacturers to
be integrated in any automation system, regardless of the fieldbus system.
CX-Profibus is an example of a FDT container appl ication. It is described in
detail in the following sections.
Device DTMDTMs are provided by the manufac turer of the device. A DTM is comparable
to a printer driver, which allows interactive configuration and diagnostics.
The DTM provides not only the configuration, manipulation and monitoring
functions for a device including the User interface functions, it also provides
the connection technology to the device.
7
Setting up a PROFIBUS-DP Network
DTM propertiesIn general, a DTM is a Microsoft COM-component, which can be executed
from within a FDT container application. A DTM is not a stand-alone tool, it
requires a FDT container application to be executed. The DTM provides a
number of interface functions, through which it can be controlled and
accessed in order to tr ansfer data to or from the DTM.
A DTM provides all the options for configuration and monitoring of a device,
which it can present to the user through its own user interface.
ActiveX User interfaceThe User Interface for a DTM is provided using ActiveX windows. Control of
these windows is done by the DTM, but the FDT containe r application can
request specific user input f rom the DT M, based on which the DTM will provide the necessary ActiveX windows. In general multi-language user interface
windows, including DTM specific Help files are supported by the DTM.
XML based data transferData transfer to and from a DTM is provided using XML-documents. The
XML-documents are standardized for the communication between the FDT
container application and for communication between DTMs.
An additional specification covers the definition of X ML-data formats for the
transfer of application specific data, such as PROFIBUS data.
Communication DTMIn general, a device configuration DTM is accompanied by a communication
DTM. This specific DTM facilitates device specific communication, e.g. for
downloading a configuration to a PROFIBUS-DP Master Unit and/or for
retrieving monitoring information from PROFIBUS-DP Master Unit. It may
incorporate the specific communication protocol, or rely on other available
drivers.
Section 1-2
CX-Profibus CX-Profibus is a FDT container application. Together with this container appli-
cation, OMRON provides two DTMs:
• A DTM to facilitate configuration of the CS1W-PRM21/CJ1W-PRM21
PROFIBUS Master Units
• A DTM to facilitate integration of GSD file based devices in to CX-Profibus
(see section
1-2-3 GSD file Technology
for more information)
1-2-3GSD file Technology
GSD file technol ogyThe older and most com mon ly us ed co nfiguration tech nology is the bas ed on
GSD files (Gerätestammdaten file). A GSD file is a text file, containing the
characteristic features and configuration options of a device. The device data
base file of each device is loaded in the configurato r and downloaded to the
master device.
GSD files are usually sup plied with e ach unit. Alter natively, GSD files can be
downloaded from the Inter net , either f rom the manufacturer's site, or from the
GSD library of the PROFIBUS Nutzer Organisation at http://www.profibus.com.
GSD file languageThe language used in the GS D file is indicated by the last letter of the file
The GSD files are prepared individually by the vendor for each type of device,
according to a fixed format. Some parameters are mandatory, some have a
default value and some are optional. The device data base file is divide d into
three parts:
General section• General specifications
This section contains the vendor name, the device name, hardware- and software release versions, station type and identification number, protocol specification and supported baud rates.
This section contains all parameters which onl y apply to DP master devices
(e.g. maximum memory size for the master parameter set, maximum number
of entries in the li st of active stations, or the maximum number of slaves the
master can handle).
DP-slave section• DP slave-related specifications
This section contains all specification related to slaves (e.g. minimum time
between two slave poll cycles, specification of the inputs and outputs, and
consistency of the I/O data).
DTM versus GSD fileWhen comparing the two configuration technologies, a GSD file only provides
information on the device characteristics and conf iguration options. It has no
GUI of its own, nor can it connect to the device itself. A GSD file always
requires a separate configu rator program to interpret t he data. In the FDT/
DTM concept all these device related functions are included in the DTM. The
DTM can be executed from any program, which provides FDT interfaces.

1-3-1PROFIBUS-DP Master Unit Features
PROFIBUS-DP Master UnitThe PROFIBUS-DP Master Unit is a CPU Bus Unit, which can be installed on
a CS1/CJ1 PLC System. Th ere are two available models of the PROFIBUSDP Master unit: the CS1W-PRM21 for connection to a CS1 PLC System and
the CJ1W-PRM21 for connection to a CJ1 PLC System . Both mode ls provide
identical functionality.
CPU Bus UnitA total of up to 16 CPU Bus Units can be mounted on t he CPU Rack or an
Expansion Rack. The total of 16 must include all PROFIBUS-DP Master units
and all other CPU Bus Units
Unit Control and statusUp to 25 words of control and status words are exchanged between the
PROFIBUS-DP Master Unit and a dedicated CI O memor y area, of whi ch the
location is related to the Unit Number. Control bits, allow the PLC program to
switch the Unit between OFF-LINE, STOP, CLEAR and OPERATE mode,
which represent the main PROFIBUS-DP modes of operation. The control
words also allow for user initiated transmission of a Global_Con trol messa ge
over the PROFIBUS network to any group of Slave stations.
The remaining CIO words provide status and di agnostics information on the
Unit itself, the PROFIBUS network and the Slave stations allocated to the
PROFIBUS-DP Master unit.
I/O dat aThe total size of I/O data however, must not exceed the maximum I/O size of
up to 7168 words, whic h i t ca n exchange wi th th e PLC memor y. The I/O data
9
PROFIBUS-DP Master Unit
can be distributed over up to two input areas and 2 output areas. Each of the
input and output areas can be mapped to any location in the DM Area, CIO
Area, WR Area, HR Area, or the EM banks.
FINS messagesThe PROFIBUS-DP Master Uni t suppor ts FINS message exchange with the
PLC CPU to allow the transfer of Slave diagnostics data, or the Error log.
Also, the user can enable or disable communication with specific allocated
slave stations, so that they can temporarily be taken out of the network for
maintenance, without the PROFIBUS-DP Master Unit reporting an error.
PROFIBUS-DP functionsThe PROFIBUS-DP Master Unit suppor ts all mandatory ser vices defined in
the PROFIBUS-DP standard EN50170, Volume 2 for Master - Slave Communication. These functions includes the following services:
• Set_Prm
• Chk_Cfg
• Slave_Diag
• Data_Exchange
• Global_Contr o l (FREEZE, UNFREEZE, SYNC, UNSYNC , C LE AR)
The PROFIBUS-DP Master Unit suppor ts cyclic Master - Slave communications for networks with up to 125 Slave stations. With each Slave station it can
exchange up to 244 bytes of input data and up to 244 bytes of output data.
For diagnostics purposes t he PROFIBUS-DP Master Unit collects all Slave
Diagnostics messages, which i t ca n be transferred to the P LC memory, using
FINS commands. From every allocated Slave station it can receive up to 244
bytes of diagnostics data.
Section 1-3
ConfigurationBefore t he P ROFIBUS-DP Ma ster Unit can control the PROFIBUS networ k, it
must be configured, using the dedicated configuration program CX-Profibus.
Without this configuration, the Unit will not be able to achieve data exc hange.
Troubleshooting
Functions
The Configurator is explained in section
The PROFIBUS-DP Master Unit is provided with a variety of troubleshooting
functions for prompt recovery in case of errors:
• Extensive self-diagnostic function at start up
• Data exchange flags, indicating if I/O data is being exchanged with the
slave stations
• Diagnos tics flags, indicating if new Slave diagnostics data is available
• Extensive status and error flags, indicating the status of the Unit and the
PROFIBUS network
• Error log for recording error history data

1-4-1CX-Profibus Fe atu r es
CX-ProfibusThe PROFIBUS-DP Master Unit requires a configuration before it can
exchange I/O data with the Slave stations. For this purpose OMRON provides
the CX-Profibus Configuration program, which runs under Microsoft Windows™ NT 4.0, Windows™ 2000 or Windows™ XP
Together with the CX-Profibus Container applicat ion, OMRON provides two
DTM COM Objects:
• A DTM to configure the CS1W-PRM21 / CJ1W-PRM21
• A DTM to allow the handling of classic GSD files in CX-Profibus
The following presents a quick overview of the functions.
CX-Profibus FDT
Container application
CS1W-PRM21/CJ1-PRM21
DTM
CX-Profibus provides an FDT environment in which DTMs can be executed.
The main function of CX-Profibus is to facilitate the DTMs and the data
exchange between them. It provides:
• Network setup functions: A tree view shows the relations between the
DTMs, i.e. the relation between the Master and Slave devices.
• Device Catalogue functions: A Device Catalogue con taining the installed
DTMs is maintained, to which the user can add new DTMs or delete
them. Device DTMs can be added to the network from this Catalogue.
• Project maintenance func tions: CX-Profibus provides the functions to create, save and open project files. It also facilitates user access control,
allowing the limitation of use to authorized personnel only, using password protection.
• Additional func tions: CX-Profibus provides additional functions like printing, error logging, FDT Communication logging and help files.
The CS1W-PRM21/CJ1W-PRM21 DTM consists of three parts:
• The Setting s DTM, which handles the configuration for the PROFIBUSDP Master Unit. This includes the bus parameters settings, the I/O data
mappings and Master specific settings. The Settings DTM provides its
own User Interface.
• The Monitoring DTM, which handles the status monitoring and control
over the PROFIBUS-DP Master unit, when it is on-line and communicating over the PROFIBUS network. It provides its own User interface to
read out Master status flags and Error log, as well as Slave status flags
and the Slave diagnostics messages received by the Unit. It also allows
the user to send Global_Control messages over the network and to
change the PROFIBUS-DP Master Unit’s mode on the PROFIBUS network.
• The com munication DTM, which provides the interface between the t wo
DTMs mentioned above and CX-Server. Cox-Server, which is provided
with the CX-Profibus packages is the driver providing communication
between the PC and the PLC CPU.
Generic Slave DTMThe Generic Slave DTM allows the handling of classic GSD files of up to GSD
revision 3 within CX-Profibus. Upon allocating a Slave station, for which only
a GSD file is available to a Master Unit in the network, this DTM will be
invoked. This DTM also consists of two parts:
• The Settings D TM will provide the user interface to display the device’s
information and the selectable values, as defined in the GSD. After making the neces sary confi guration settin gs, these will be trans ferred to t he
Master DTM automatically.
