Battery Life Advisory
The MVI46, MVI56, MVI56E, MVI69, and MVI71 modules use a rechargeable Lithium Vanadium Pentoxide battery to backup the real-time clock and CMOS. The battery should last for the life of the module. The module must be powered for approximately twenty hours before the battery becomes fully charged. After it is fully charged, the battery provides backup power for the CMOS setup and the real-time clock for approximately 21 days. When the battery is fully discharged, the module will revert to the default BIOS and clock settings.
Note: The battery is not user replaceable.

1.4 Installing the Module in the Rack
If you have not already installed and configured your ControlLogix processor and power supply, please do so before installing the MVI56-PDPMV1 module. Refer to your Rockwell Automation product documentation for installation instructions.
Warning: You must follow all safety instructions when installing this or any other electronic devices. Failure to follow safety procedures could result in damage to hardware or data, or even serious injury or death to personnel. Refer to the documentation for each device you plan to connect to verify that suitable safety procedures are in place before installing or servicing the device. Warning: When you insert or remove the module while backplane power is on, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location installations. Verify that power is removed or the area is non-hazardous before proceeding. Repeated electrical arcing causes excessive wear to contacts on both the module and its mating connector. Worn contacts may create electrical resistance that can affect module operation.
1 Turn power OFF. 2 Align the module with the top and bottom guides, and slide it into the rack
until the module is firmly against the backplane connector.
3 With a firm but steady push, snap the module into place. 4 Check that the holding clips on the top and bottom of the module are securely
in the locking holes of the rack.
5 Make a note of the slot location. You must identify the slot in which the
module is installed in order for the sample program to work correctly. Slot numbers are identified on the green circuit board (backplane) of the ControlLogix rack.
6 Turn power ON.
Note: If you insert the module improperly, the system may stop working, or may behave unpredictably.

1.5 Choosing Sample Ladder Logic For Your Application
The sample program for your MVI56-PDPMV1 module includes custom tags, data types and ladder logic for data I/O, status and alarm monitoring, and mailbox messaging. For most applications, you can run the sample ladder program without modification, or, for advanced applications, you can incorporate the sample program into your existing application.
NOTE: ControlLogix firmware versions 15 or earlier do not support Add-On Instructions (AOIs). For these applications, you will need to use the plain ladder logic sample programs. For applications with ControlLogix firmware version 16 or newer, you can use the supplied AOI samples, which encapsulate the ladder logic, controller tags, and user-defined data types into one convenient import file.
SPECIAL NOTE: For AOI applications created using ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) version
2.2.0 or later, the following process of sample ladder selection is not necessary. PCB versions
2.2.0 and up allow you to export custom-made RSLogix 5000 .L5X Rung Import files that precisely match the module's configuration. Selecting and modifying sample logic will not be required if you use PCB 2.2.0. or later and follow the procedure found in the topic, Export the Processor Files for PCB v2.2.0 or later (page 107). For more details, see the section, Using the MVI56-PDPMV1 Add­On Instructions (page 24).
The inRAx Solutions CD provides several versions of the sample ladder logic. The version number appended to the sample file name (for example, "_v13" or "_v15") indicates which ControlLogix firmware version the sample program was created to match. It is best if the ControlLogix processor firmware version and sample program version match. However, RSLogix 5000 can convert an older version sample to a later ControlLogix firmware version, if necessary.
The following criteria determine which sample program to select:
o
Processor Firmware Version
o
MVI56-PDPMV1 module firmware version
o
MVI56-PDPMV1 mode used (FLEX or LEGACY)
Note: FLEX mode is available only for module firmware versions 1.21 or later.
The next few topics will help you determine which sample programs will work best for your application.

1.5.2 Determining the Firmware Version of the MVI56-PDPMV1 Module
There are two ways to verify the module firmware version:
Checking the Version During Power-Up
When the module powers up, it will search for the ControlLogix processor to establish backplane connectivity. If the correct ladder is not loaded to the processor, or if the module is not located in the configured slot, or the processor is missing, the module will not allow access to the debug menu and will print the message "Waiting for Connection to the processor…"
Because debug menu access is not allowed at this point, view the debug menu messages that are printed during power-up for the module firmware version. Refer to the message that appears just before the message "C>pb_msts1":
If the message "MVI56-PDPMV1 Firmware Version = x.xx" appears on the screen as shown in the following illustration, the module firmware is version 1.21 or later.
Page 18 of 255 ProSoft Technology, Inc. March 22, 2011
MVI56-PDPMV1 ♦ ControlLogix Platform Start Here PROFIBUS DPV1 Master User Manual
If the message "MVI56-PDPMV1 Firmware Version = x.xx" does not appear on the screen, the module firmware version is 0.30.
Checking the Version After Power-Up
If the correct sample program (LEGACY or FLEX) is loaded into your processor and the module is located in same slot that was configured, then after module power-up it will be possible to access the debug menu through ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB).

2 Press [V] to display the module version information. Verify "SOFTWARE
REVISION LEVEL" for the module firmware version (1.21 for the example below):
1.5.3 Determining the Module Mode (LEGACY or FLEX)
There are two versions of the sample program: LEGACY (fixed I/O sizes) and FLEX (variable I/O sizes) versions.
MVI56-PDPMV1 firmware version 0.30 must use the LEGACY sample
program and fixed I/O sizes.
MVI56-PDPMV1 firmware version 1.21 or later can use either the LEGACY or
FLEX mode sample programs.
For module firmware version 1.21 or later, the U parameter in ProSoft Configuration Builder selects which mode you will use. Setting the parameter to YES says to use fixed I/O sizes in LEGACY mode. Setting the parameter to NO says to use variable I/O sizes in FLEX mode. This step is described in Select the Connection Parameters for the Module (page 69).
LEGACY mode allows backward compatibility with firmware version 0.30 and implements the following features:
Fixed backplane I/O block size (input size = 250 words, output size = 248
words)
Status and Mailbox transferred through regular I/O blocks.

configuration
Page 20 of 255 ProSoft Technology, Inc. March 22, 2011
MVI56-PDPMV1 ♦ ControlLogix Platform Start Here PROFIBUS DPV1 Master User Manual
LEGACY mode offers these advantages: Works with all module firmware versions; use LEGACY mode for backward
compatibility in older applications.
Since all parameters are fixed, configuration is simpler than FLEX mode. Status data is bought across the backplane as I/O data without the need for
additional logic to trigger MSG instructions.
FLEX mode implements the following features: Supports variable backplane I/O block sizes (input backplane block size can
be set from 12 words to 250 words; output backplane block size can be set from 5 to 248 words).
Status, Slave Diagnostic, and Mailbox data transferred through MSG
instructions.
Supports IOT instruction for immediate write of backplane output. When transfer speed for smaller data configurations is a priority or when
backward compatibility is not required, consider using FLEX mode, which provides these advantages:
Makes it easier to support installing the module in a remote rack. The flexible
backplane I/O block size allows you to adjust the amount of data to transfer for any specific remote rack application and optimize network bandwidth utilization.
Improves backplane I/O block transfer performance by implementing MSG
instructions to retrieve module status. This means regular I/O block transfers are not needed for status data, so process I/O data can be updated more often. The same applies to Mailbox MSG data transfers.
Improves backplane performance by implementing the IOT instruction for
Immediate Output Transfers, which overrides the module RPI time and sends data as fast as possible.

Note: For ControlLogix version 16, you will use the Add-On Instruction (AOI) rung import (.L5X) files, which encapsulate all the required ladder logic, controller tags, and user-defined data types into a single import file; or you can use the version 16 ladder logic sample files (.ACD), which already have the AOI files imported. The plain ladder logic sample files (.ACD) for versions 13 and 15 use the same logic as the AOI versions but display them as standard ladder logic. The separate AOI .L5K file exists to make it easier to import the sample application into an existing project or new project file. You do not need to import the AOI .L5K files into any of the .ACD ladder logic sample programs. ControlLogix versions 15 and earlier do not support Add-On Instructions; so do not try to import the AOI .L5K files into those older versions of RSLogix 5000. For ControlLogix firmware version 16, refer to Using the MVI56-PDPMV1 Add-On Instructions

Flexible Connection I/O Length Overview
This section describes the flexible backplane connection I/O concept. The connection parameters may assume values within the following ranges:

Maximum PROFIBUS data count per block (16-bit)
Assembly Instance
For applications where the module will be used in the local rack (the same rack as the ControlLogix processor), use the maximum backplane I/O sizes.
For applications where the module will be used in a remote rack, use the backplane I/O sizes that will provide optimal network performance (PROFIBUS and ControlNet or EtherNet/IP).
The configured sizes will have an impact on the number of blocks required to transfer the entire PROFIBUS I/O database between the ControlLogix processor and the MVI56-PDPMV1 module. Reducing the number of words per backplane block may improve the ControlNet or EtherNet/IP network performance. However, doing so will increase the number of backplane block transfers and have a negative effect on overall backplane data transfer efficiency.

MVI56-PDPMV1 ♦ ControlLogix Platform Start Here PROFIBUS DPV1 Master User Manual
IMPORTANT: ControlLogix Version 16 with FLEX Mode If you change the connection sizes in the module profile, you must also update the following data types with the new sizes. The connection I/O sizes defined in the module profile must always match the following user-defined data types:
PDPMV1_C PDPMV1_C
ONNECTION_INPUT ONNECTION_OUTPUT
You will also need to adjust limits in some of the ladder logic or AOI logic. For additional details, see Adjusting the Connection Sizes for Your Application. (page 41)
The array sizes must be modified (in the Data Type column) to match the connection sizes configured in the module profile. Failure to do so will prevent the module from establishing backplane communication with the ControlLogix processor.
Example 1
For the following example, if the module profile is configured as:
ProSoft Technology, Inc. Page 39 of 255 March 22, 2011
Start Here MVI56-PDPMV1 ♦ ControlLogix Platform User Manual PROFIBUS DPV1 Master
Then, the PDPMV1_C
ONNECTION_INPUT
user-defined data type must have an
array size of 250 words, as shown in the following illustration.
And, the PDPMV1_C
ONNECTION_OUTPUT
user-defined data type must have an
array size of 248 words, as shown in the following illustration.
Note: Each backplane block contains certain registers reserved for general purposes (non­PROFIBUS data transfer). The backplane input block reserves 8 words for general purposes and the backplane output block reserves 5 words. You must subtract these reserved words from the total I/O block size to calculate the actual number of PROFIBUS I/O data per backplane I/O block and where the break points between data blocks will be in the PROFIBUS data arrays.

Adjusting the Connection Sizes for Your Application
Note: ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB), version 2.2.0, or higher, will automatically make the following adjustments for you based on the configuration information you enter in PCB. The newer versions of PCB allow you to export custom-made RSLogix 5000 .L5X Add-On Instruction (AOI) Rung Import files that are already tailored to your application-specific configuration. These custom files will be similar to the provided sample AOI Rung Import files but will already include the adjustments shown in the next few topics. If you use the custom import files, you will not need to do any of the following; it will be done for you already. If this is the case, all you need to do is import the custom .L5X file according to the procedure found in Importing the Ladder Rung: FLEX (page 53). For additional information on how to export custom-made .L5X files from PCB, please see the topic, Exporting the Processor Files (page 105). The information provided in this topic shows you what kind of modifications are being done automatically for you by PCB. This information can also help you manually edit the standard FLEX sample files to better fit your application or help you determine what kinds of modifications you might need to make to any existing applications you may already be using.

5 Adjust the array size for your application. The default array size is INT[248]
(maximum size). This example is for 248 output words.
6 The imported ladder rung has also used the default I/O settings (Input Count
= 250 words, Output Count = 248 words). If different values are used, make the following changes to the ladder logic:
COP Instruction (input)
Change the Length to match the number of input words configured for the module. The default uses 250 words.
NEQ Instruction
Change the array element as the last element of the connection input array. The default refers to element 249, since this is the last element of the array of 250 words. For example, if the module connection input is set as 122 words, set the last element as 121.
ProSoft Technology, Inc. Page 43 of 255 March 22, 2011

COP Instruction (output)
Change the Length to match the number of output words configured for the module. The default uses 248 words.

Scenario 1: The PROFIBUS data fits into one backplane block
This example uses the following backplane configuration:
For this scenario, each backplane block reserves 100 words for PROFIBUS data, so the data fits into one backplane I/O block. The module will generate two block IDs, blocks 0 and 1, in order to force a Block ID switch, as required for the ladder logic to function correctly, but both blocks will contain the same data.

Scenario 2: The PROFIBUS data fits into two backplane blocks (different PROFIBUS data count per block)
For this example, we will subtract one word for each I/O backplane block, using the following backplane configuration:
For this scenario, each backplane block reserves a maximum of 99 words for PROFIBUS I/O data. The configured PROFIBUS I/O size (100 words) will not fit into one block, so two backplane input blocks and two backplane output blocks will be required to transfer the entire PROFIBUS I/O data.
Note: For this scenario, block 0 is no longer required because there are two backplane blocks with different data.

1 Input 107 99 0 98
2 Input 107 1 99 99

Note: This configuration would be inefficient and is therefore not recommended. The previous
example is a more efficient configuration that will accomplish the same thing. This example is here solely to illustrate how changing the I/O sizes without changing the amount of PROFIBUS data to be transferred will affect the number of I/O data blocks the module will need to transfer.

Scenario 3: The PROFIBUS data fits into two backplane blocks (same PROFIBUS data count per block)
For this example, we will split the PROFIBUS data evenly within two backplane blocks, using the following backplane configuration:
For this scenario, each backplane block reserves 50 words for PROFIBUS I/O data. The configured PROFIBUS I/O size (100 words) will not fit into one block, so two backplane input blocks and two backplane output blocks will be required.

Scenario 4: The PROFIBUS data fits into ten backplane blocks (same PROFIBUS data count per block)
For this scenario, each backplane block reserves 10 words for PROFIBUS I/O data. The configured PROFIBUS I/O size (100 words) will not fit into one block, so ten backplane input blocks and ten backplane output blocks will be required.

example (Scenario 1) is a more efficient configuration that will accomplish the same thing much faster with one backplane transfer. This example is here solely to illustrate how changing the I/O sizes without changing the amount of PROFIBUS data to be transferred will affect the number of I/O data blocks the module will need to transfer.

1.8.3 Selecting the Connection Parameters for the Module
The connection parameters will determine the number of words each backplane I/O block will contain for data transfer between the processor and the module. The input and output backplane block sizes will depend on the MVI56-PDPMV1 version and the selected mode (LEGACY or FLEX). Depending on these factors, the connection parameters may be set as Fixed or Flexible lengths.
While following the procedures in the appropriate sections, keep in mind to set the Use Legacy Mode parameter to match the sample program version (LEGACY or FLEX) that you selected and loaded. If you get a mismatch between this parameter setting and the sample ladder program loaded, the module will not function.
The following settings are configured in ProSoft Configuration Builder for modules with firmware version 1.21 or later only. Note that the parameters that are displayed on the Edit screen vary depending on whether YES or NO is selected for the Use Legacy Mode parameter. For more information, refer to Setting Module Parameters (page 82).
Select LEGACY mode (U
SE LEGACY MODE =
Y)

1.8.4 Selecting the RPI Time for the Module
Refer to the Connection tab and enter the RPI time. The connection is scheduled to move data to or from the module at least this often.
The RPI time to enter depends on your application as follows:
RPI Time 5 to 750 milliseconds
For ANY of the following conditions
MVI56-PDPMV1 module firmware version 0.30 MVI56-PDPMV1 module firmware version 1.21 (or later) AND configured in
LEGACY mode (U

MS
.
ProSoft Technology, Inc. Page 71 of 255 March 22, 2011
Start Here MVI56-PDPMV1 ♦ ControlLogix Platform User Manual PROFIBUS DPV1 Master
RPI Time 750 milliseconds
If ALL of the following conditions are true:
MVI56-PDPMV1 module firmware version 1.21 (or later) MVI56-PDPMV1 module configured in FLEX mode (U
SE LEGACY MODE = NO
)
MVI56-PDPMV1 module is located in either the local rack or remote rack
through EtherNet/IP adapters
For optimal performance set the RPI time as 750
MS
. For this scenario, the module will use the IOT (Immediate Output) instruction that will override the configured RPI time. Setting a lower RPI time will cause unnecessary interrupts to the module, delaying data updates and lowering data throughput.
1.8.5 Changing and Importing Configuration Changes (for PCB v
2.2.0 and up only)
NOTE: This procedure must be used anytime you wish to change the module configuration after the first time an AOI rung import was performed. For changes to be effective, previous controller tags and ladder logic must be manually deleted before the new rung export file can be successfully imported. Failure to follow this procedure may result in the module becoming non-functional.
This procedure assumes you have already made your configuration changes and have re-exported the processor files according the procedure specified in Export the Processor Files for PCB v2.2.0 or later (page 107).
To successfully complete this update procedure, you must do the following steps in the order shown:

and
you configured for the module in the ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) MVI Profibus Master DPV1 edit window.
REMEMBER: It is also critically important that the I/O Configuration Module Name on the PCB Edit box be set to match the Name parameter in the RSLogix5000 Module Properties box. The name you enter in PCB is used to create a communication path for the Status and Acyclic Data MSG instructions. If the two names are not identical, the import may appear to have completed successfully; but the module will not work correctly because the MSG instructions will not have the correct module name in the MSG instruction Communication tab Path parameter. If you receive any warning messages from RSLogix 5000, during or after the import, about duplicate data types being overwritten or not imported, you may safely ignore these messages. The module will function correctly. You can eliminate any such warning messages by deleting all UDTs before importing the new ladder rung file.
6 At this point, you are ready to import your new ladder rung file with your
configurations changes. Please return to the previous section and follow the procedure found in the topic, Exporting the Processor Files for PCB v2.2.0 or later (page 107).

2.3.1 Installing the GSD Files
ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) uses PROFIBUS slave device definition files (GSD files) to obtain basic configuration information about the PROFIBUS slaves you add to the network. The GSD configuration files identify the slave’s capabilities so that the MVI56-PDPMV1 can communicate with it correctly. Slave device manufacturers provide the GSD files for the equipment they make. Slave device files sometimes come in various languages. When a manufacturer provides slave device files in several languages, it is a common practice to use the third letter of the file extension to indicate the language used in the file. For instance:
o
.GSD is the most commonly used file extension and will usually be in either English or German
o
.GSE will usually be in English
o
.GSS will usually be in Spanish
o
.GSF will usually be in French
o
other combinations may also be seen, as well as other languages using the letters indicated above
Follow these steps to install the GSD file or files for your slave device or devices.
Tip: GSD configuration files for popular PROFIBUS slaves and ProSoft Technology solutions are included with PCB. Before installing GSD files, browse the list of available slaves in the Tree View window to see if GSD files for your slave are already installed. GSD files are often both model number specific as well as model revision specific. Just because you may have an older GSD file from a manufacturer for the particular make and model of your slave device does not guarantee it will work for a newer revision of that device. Be sure you obtain from the device manufacturer the correct GSD file or files for your PROFIBUS slave or slaves.

2.3.2 Configuring the PROFIBUS Slaves
There are two essential steps to configuring a slave: 1 Add the slave in ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) as a device connected
to the PROFIBUS Master, specifying the slave address and any necessary input and output configuration. Download the PROFIBUS Master configuration to the MVI56-PDPMV1 module.
2 Configure the slave (using PCB or the configuration tool supplied by the
manufacturer, for some PROFIBUS slaves). Verify that the slave address configured in the slave module matches the slave address configured in PCB. Download the PROFIBUS Slave configuration to the slave module.

4 In the tree view, click the plus sign [+] to expand the slave device you added.
This action opens a list of device configuration values. The following illustration shows the possible input/output configuration values for a Siemens EM 277 PLC Slave. The selections available for other devices will be different, so you should review the specifications for the product you are installing in order to determine the correct values to use.
5 Drag the input and output parameters to the Slot Location Grid (Subscriber
List) below the Bus Configuration window. This view displays the slot number,
configuration data, and starting input and output addresses. The MVI56­PDPMV1 Master uses this information to identify and communicate with individual slaves on the network.

Configuring the MVI56-PDPMV1 Module MVI56-PDPMV1 ♦ ControlLogix Platform User Manual PROFIBUS DPV1 Master
For this example, we will configure thirty-two (32) words of output and eight (8) words of input. These input and output words are assigned to addresses within the MVI56-PDPMV1 module's internal database.
For each new slave added to the PROFIBUS network, PCB automatically converts the input/output byte addresses to word input/output addresses for the tag database in the processor.
Tip: To make it easier to view the data from individual slaves, give each slave a meaningful name, and place each slave's I/O areas in contiguous blocks. Use the Processor Network Memory Map (page 104) as an aid to cross-referencing the slave I/O data in RSLogix 5000.

Using The Autoscan Feature The concept of Automatic network scanning means that the user can instruct the
Bus Configuration window to automatically gather information about slaves that
are connected to the network. When the scan is completed the user can adopt the detected slaves to the bus configuration and download to the Master.
This is a quick way to get a network up and running. However, one should be aware that it is not guaranteed that any particular slave will enter data exchange since the user parameter data might not match. This is especially obvious if no associated GSD-file is found during the network scan, this means that no user parameter data would be sent to the slave.

When the download is completed, the PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will initialize the Master to operate as a Class 2 Master only. In this mode it is possible to initialize the Master even if the database does not contain any slaves.
After successful initialization, the PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will issue the following mailboxes in order to gather information about the connected slaves:
1 1. Send FB_APPL_GET_LIVE_LIST in order to detect connected slaves, 2 2. Send FB_APPL_GET_SLAVE_DIAG (external request) to all devices
identified as slaves according to the Live list.
3 3. Send FB_APPL_GET_SLAVE_CONFIG to all devices identified as slaves
according to the Live list.

GSD Selection Algorithm
If two or more matching GSD-files are found, the first one found should be selected. The other compatible files should be stored so that the user can select one of them instead. If the user selects another GSD-file, the PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will run through the Module Selection Algorithm (described below) again.
Module Selection Algorithm
The algorithm used to find modules in the GSD based on the Identifier byte(s) is as follows:
Select the module that matches the largest number of Identifier bytes. If the GSD contains two or more modules with the exact set of Identifier bytes, use the first module found.
Example: If a slave responds with identifier bytes: 0x11, 0x21, 0x31 and that the associated
GSD-file contains five modules: “A” = 0x11, “B” = 0x21, “C” = 0x31, “AB” = 0x11, 0x21 and “BC” = 0x21, 0x31. The PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will then select modules "AB" and "C".
Note: If no matching module is found in the GSD, The PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will display the identifier byte(s) instead.
Network scan window The information extracted from the GSD-file(s) will be displayed in the Network
scan window.
Select
In this column all found slaves will be marked as selected by default, except for slaves with the special address 126 (refer to the next section that describes the Address column). Only selected slaves will be added to the PROFIBUS Master
Configuration when the A

button is clicked.
Address
In this column the node address of the slaves will be displayed. Found slaves should be listed in ascending order according to their node addresses.

Special address 126 -Set Slave address:
If a slave with node address 126 is detected during the network scan, the PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will display the address in red color. It will not be possible for the user to adopt the slave to the configuration since it is not allowed to exchange data with devices having this address. The check box in the Select column will be grayed out.
To be able to adopt a slave with address 126 the user must first assign a valid address by clicking the icon next to the node address. By doing so the Set Slave Address dialog box is started.
Note that the Old slave address is preset to a value of 126 that is not editable (grayed out).

If the Slave is in the configuration already then it will not affect the addressing. Example:
After scanning, the network finds these other slaves: 2, 6, 25, and 40 Slaves 2, 6, and 25 are found, but are marked as in the bus configuration (the mapping of the inputs and outputs will not be affected) Slaves 40 is new and could be added and the input/output addressing will be appended to the end as shown on the last screen.

The PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will prevent the user from selecting a New slave address that is already occupied by another device; this includes detected Master stations as well. If the user selects an occupied address, a message similar to the one shown here will open.
When an address has been successfully assigned, the PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will update the Network scan window as shown here. The node address will be updated to the one that the user selected in the Set Slave dialog box. The check box in the Select column will be marked allowing the user to adopt the slave to the configuration.

This could be the case if the device catalog contains two or more brand labeled devices, or GSD-files for two or more languages (for example NICEDEV.GSD and NICEDEV.GSE) exist.
Note: If the user selects another GSD-file, The PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will update the modules for that slave accordingly.
If no GSD-file is found the user will be able to copy the expected GSD to the device catalog by clicking the icon next to the text No GSD found. This will start the Install new GS*-file dialog box. When the file is installed, the PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will verify that the installed file matches the slave and update the modules for the slave accordingly.
Rescan
Pressing the Y
ES
button will trigger a new network scan. Before proceeding with the scan a message similar to the one below will appear. If a new scan is accepted, detected slaves found during the previous scan will be lost.
Note: The autoscan function cannot delete slaves in the current configuration, it can only change (if slaves differs) or add. The slave must be manually removed from the bus configuration in order to be able to add it again via the scan window.
