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 Setting Jumpers

The Setup Jumper acts as "write protection" for the module’s flash memory. In "write protected" mode, the Setup pins are not connected, and the module’s firmware cannot be overwritten. Do not jumper the Setup pins together unless you are directed to do so by ProSoft Technical Support.

The following illustration shows the MVI69-PDPMV1 jumper configuration.

Note: If you are installing the module in a remote rack, you may prefer to leave the Setup pins

jumpered. That way, you can update the module’s firmware without requiring physical access to the module.

DP icon. This action

Tip: GSD configuration files for popular PROFIBUS slaves and ProSoft Technology modules are

included with the installation. If you have other GSD files for your PROFIBUS slaves, copy them into C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\ProSoft\GSD (Windows XP / 2000) or C:\My Documents\ (Windows 98) and ProSoft Configuration Builder will load them automatically.

3.2.5 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 MVI69-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.

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.

ProSoft Technology, Inc. Page 53 of 225 July 8, 2011

Module Setup MVI69-PDPMV1 ♦ CompactLogix or MicroLogix Platform User Manual PROFIBUS DPV1 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.

ETWORK SCAN is selectable from the Online menu as well as from the drop-

down menu for the M

ASTER icon.

The only prerequisite for scanning the network is that the project consists of a Master with no slaves assigned to it. If a network scan is initiated and the project already contains slaves, a message window similar to the one below will appear. When the window is closed the network scan will be omitted.

When a network scan is initiated, the PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will download the Master bus parameters (baudrate etc.).

Page 54 of 225 ProSoft Technology, Inc. July 8, 2011

MVI69-PDPMV1 ♦ CompactLogix or MicroLogix Platform Module Setup PROFIBUS DPV1 Master User Manual

When the download is completed, the PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will initialize the Master to operate as a Class1/Class 2 Master. 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.

ProSoft Technology, Inc. Page 55 of 225 July 8, 2011

Module Setup MVI69-PDPMV1 ♦ CompactLogix or MicroLogix Platform User Manual PROFIBUS DPV1 Master

When the information is collected the PROFIBUS Master Configuration window will find a matching GSD-file and extract information from it. Refer to the flowchart below for this sequence:

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.

MVI69-PDPMV1 ♦ CompactLogix or MicroLogix Platform Module Setup PROFIBUS DPV1 Master User Manual

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.

Note: Only slaves are shown here, possible Masters connected to the network will not be listed

here!

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

DOPT SELECTED SLAVES 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.

Page 58 of 225 ProSoft Technology, Inc. July 8, 2011

MVI69-PDPMV1 ♦ CompactLogix or MicroLogix Platform Module Setup PROFIBUS DPV1 Master User Manual

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: The Old slave address is preset to a value of 126 that is not editable (grayed out).

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.

Slave

In this column the name of the slave as stated in the assigned GSD-file will be displayed. If no matching GSD-file is found the Ident number will be displayed in red color in the drop-down list.

Module

This column shows the name of the module(s) as stated in the assigned GSDfile, which matches the Identifier byte(s) derived from the GetCfg mailbox message. If no GSD-file or no matching module is found the Identifier byte(s) will be displayed in red color. If the configuration for a slave is constructed of several modules, the modules will be listed under each other.

If there is more than one module in the GSD-file that matches the Identifer bytes, the first matching module will be displayed in blue color in a drop-down list. The drop-down list will contain all other matching modules so that the user can select the desired one.

Note: Only modules that have the exact same Identifer bytes as the first matching module will be

displayed in the drop-down list.

GSD-file

This column shows the name of the GSD-file that matches the Ident number derived from the SlaveDiag mailbox message. If there are more files with the same Ident number in the device catalog, the first matching GSD-file will be displayed in blue color in a drop-down list.

Page 60 of 225 ProSoft Technology, Inc. July 8, 2011

MVI69-PDPMV1 ♦ CompactLogix or MicroLogix Platform Module Setup PROFIBUS DPV1 Master User Manual

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.

3.2.6 Calculating the Checksums

The checksum (CRC) values are calculated from the PROFIBUS configuration data, and compare the contents of the configuration file in the module with the value reported by the processor. The checksum (CRC) value allows the processor to verify that the configuration file is valid, and has not changed since the last time the configuration file was imported to the processor. Any change to the contents of the configuration file in either location changes the unique numeric (CRC) value for the file.

If the checksum values do not match, the APP STATUS light illuminates on the module.

1 On the PDPMV1 PROFIBUS Master Setup dialog box, click the C

ALCULATE

CHECKSUMS button.

2 Make a note of the checksum values so that you can enter them later if

prompted.

Note: The recommended location for the files is the My Doc uments folder on your PC. The

configuration tool for the processor will use this folder by default.

3.2.7 Printing the Processor Network Memory Map

The inRAx Data Type dialog box uses the information about your PROFIBUS Master and slaves to display the data types you configured. You will need this information to determine the memory areas your application will use in the CompactLogix processor.

The MVI69-PDPMV1 PROFIBUS DP Master uses a process called Mailbox Messaging to exchange parameter data between the processor, Master, and slave devices. This process provides a way to encapsulate and prioritize commands and data sent between the PROFIBUS Master and slaves.

The PROFIBUS DP-V1 protocol specifies two types of data transmission messages (telegrams): Cyclic Data Telegrams and Acyclic Data Telegrams. Cyclic data communication is the exchange of normal slave input and output (I/O) data and is handled automatically by the Master in a defined, recurring, deterministic sequence based on the configuration you create in ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB).

Acyclic communication extends data communication beyond normal I/O data to allow moving field device parameterization and calibration data over the bus during runtime and to allow for extended diagnostics and alarm messages. Acyclic data telegrams are transmitted in the gaps between cyclic data telegrams and, therefore, have a lower priority and get less bandwidth than cyclic data.

Class 1 Acyclic message telegrams may be issued to any slave on the network with has already been configured for Cyclic data exchange with the module's DPV1 Master. The ability to request acyclic data from these same slaves increases the data collection, alarming, and diagnostic capacity of the module's DPV1 Master when communicating with DPV1 slaves that support acyclic messaging.

The PROFIBUS DPV1 Master also supports Class 2 Acyclic messaging. This allows the DPV1 Master to send data request telegrams to any slave node on the PROFIBUS network, whether or not that node has been configured to exchange cyclic data with the module's DPV1 Master. These extra Class 2 features further expand the module Master's capability and flexibility.

Mailbox Messaging commands are incorporated into the sample ladder logic. Mailbox messages and responses to mailbox messages are stored in mailbox data types on the sample program or Add-On Instruction (AOI).

Mailbox Messaging MVI69-PDPMV1 ♦ CompactLogix or MicroLogix Platform User Manual PROFIBUS DPV1 Master

4.1 Mailbox Message Queuing

The MVI69-PDPMV1 module operates asynchronously on the Mailbox Messages and as such provides for the queuing of the messages as they are received. The queue sizes used in the module are as follows:

Queue Type

Output message from processor 126 Input messages for processor 126 Alarm messages from slaves for

processor

Queue Size Max

100

Description

Number of messages that the MVI69 module will queue by type of message. Note that status of the queues can be monitored via the Queue Message Count values.

4.1.1 Queue Timeouts

The MVI69-PDPMV1 module will only allow a message to stay in a queue for up to 10 seconds. If the PROFIBUS Master (for output messages) or the processor (for input and alarm messages) has not successfully received a message within 10 seconds, the module will clear the message out of the queue.

4.3 Receiving Mailbox Message Responses from the Module

After a mailbox message has been sent, a response from the command, usually containing the requested data or the status of the command, is returned from the MVI69 module to the processor. The response is returned from the MVI69PDPMV1 via the PROFIBUS Input data block.

Remembering the PROFIBUS Input Data Memory Map:

4.4.2 Mailbox Message: Set Slave Mode

In addition to station-related user data transfer, which is executed automatically, the Master can send control commands to a single slave, a group of slaves, or all slaves simultaneously. These control commands are transmitted as multicast commands. This permits use of sync and freeze modes for event-controlled synchronization of the slaves.

The slaves begin sync mode when they receive a sync command from their assigned Master. The outputs of all addressed slaves are then frozen in their current state. During subsequent user data transmissions, the output data are stored on the slaves, but the output states remain unchanged. The stored output data are not sent to the outputs until the next sync command is received. Sync mode is concluded with the unsync command.

Similarly, a freeze control command causes the addressed slaves to assume freeze mode. In this operating mode, the states of the inputs are frozen until the Master sends the next freeze command. Freeze mode is concluded with the unfreeze command.

Note 1: It is only possible to send control commands when operating mode is either "CLEAR" or

"OPERATE".

Note 2: Not all slaves support this feature. Refer to the documentation for the actual slave for more

information.

Group Select

Range 01h to FFh (Bit Coded) This parameter determines which group to address. Refer to the following

example:

b7 b6 b5 b4 b3 b2 b1 b0

Group 8 Group 7 Group 6 Group 5 Group 4 Group 3 Group 2 Group 1

Example:

To address Group 1, 2, and 4, the Group Select value should be D0h. If an individual slave should be addressed, the correct group selection must also be made, because the slave will ignore the message if it does not belong to the requested group(s).

What group(s) a slave belongs to is determined during network configuration, and is downloaded during initialization to each slave via the PROFIBUS telegram Set_Prm.

This parameter specifies the command to send:
