Omron CX-PROFIBUS DATASHEET

CX-PROFIBUS

PROFIBUS configurator

Advanced configuration tool that uses FDT/DTM ( Field De­vice Tool and Device Type Manager) Technology

• The PROFIBUS-DP network topology and system characteristics
are defined and then downloaded in the OMRON PROFIBUS Mas­ter Unit

• Configuration can be done remotely, via other networks as Ethernet
or ControllerLink

• Can be used with all Omron masters*

Function

The configuration software package for the OMRON PROFIBUS­DP master is used to define:

• The configuration of the bus system connected.

• Configuration- and parameter data of all connected slave stations.

• Overall bus communication settings.

All configuration data can be prepared off-line and downloaded remo­tely.

After the initial configuration has been downloaded, the software
package can be used for:

• Addition / deletion of slave units or -modules.

• Monitoring the PROFIBUS system status.

• Troubleshooting communication problems.

It is not possible to use other (general-purpose) PROFIBUS-DP Confi­gurator software packages for this purpose

More about FDT/DTM and Omron CX-PROFIBUS

FDT is a frame application that provides a standard communication
interface between software components that support the field devices
and systems. These so-called DTMs, can be used in all configuration
tools who follow the FDT specification.

The DTM is the management component for a field device or system.
It provides all configuration, diagnostics and maintenance information
and even graphical user dialogs of the specific device. Omron's CX­PROFIBUS configuration package is a FDT frame application that
includes all DTM's for Omron PROFIBUS masters and slaves. DTM's
of other vendors devices can be added. Also a Generic slave DTM for
field devices that only provide a GSD-file for configuration is available.
