Slave is active/inactive in current configuration. If activation is not selected,
configuration data will still be transferred to the coupler on Download, but not
data exchange occurs over the bus.
If Watchdog Control is set active, the entered Watchdog time applies
(access monitoring, basis 10 ms). If the slave has not been accessed by the
master within this time, it is reset to its initialization state.
You can inspect the corresponding GSD file via the GSD-File button.
In-/outputs of a DP slave
Dialog for configuring the in-/outputs of a DP slave
As the maximum data lengths specified in the GSD file (Max. length of input data, Max. length of
output data, Max. length of in-/output data) and the maximum number of modules (Max. number
of modules) must be respected, this information is displayed in both module lists. The left block
displays the maximum possible values for the device, the right the values resulting from summing the
values selected in the configuration. If the maximum values are exceeded, an error message is
issued.
The dialog lists in the left window all the in- and output modules available in the slave's GSD file, while
the right window contains the configuration currently selected for this device as it relates to in- and
outputs.
If this is a modular slave (a device that can be equipped with various I/O modules), the selection
proceeds as follows: In the left-hand list, the desired in- or output module is selected by mouse-click
and copied into the right window using the Select >> button. Incorrect entries can be corrected by
selecting the undesired module in the right window and pressing the Delete button.
This kind of selection is not possible for non-modular slaves. These directly enforce a closed display
of their in- and outputs in the right window. Undesired modules can then by removed by selecting and
using Delete.
