Editing of Input / Output Size and DAP Mode

You can change the input/output size of PROFINET slave board. Change parameters as necessary.

1. Select [Setup] - [System Configuration] and display the [System Configuration] dialog box.

2. Select [Controller] - [Inputs / Outputs] - [Fieldbus Slave] - [General].

   

3. Change the settings of [Input Byte] and [Output Byte].
   In this example, both of them are changed to "20" Bytes.

   

4. Change the setting of [DAP mode] if necessary.

5. Set [DAP mode] according to the PROFINET IO Controller that you want to use.
   Usually, select DAP Ver.2. DAP Ver.1 is available for the obsolete PROFINET IO Controller.

8. Select [Setup] - [System Configuration] and display the [System Configuration] dialog box.

9. Select [Controller] - [Inputs / Outputs].

   

10. Confirm that the following items are displayed in "Fieldbus Slave".
    Inputs: "512" - "512 + Changed number of input I/O (Bits)"
    Outputs: "512" - "512 + Changed number of output I/O (Bits)"
    In this example, Input byte is 20 bytes (160 bits) and "512 - 671" is displayed in Inputs.
    Also, Output byte is 20 bytes (160 bits) and "512 - 671" is displayed in Outputs.

11. Click [Close].

When setting this option to the PROFINET IO Controller (Master), configure as below.

The Robot Controller includes 16 pseudo I/O slots. In these slots, add 1 to 32 bytes input modules, output modules.

Make sure to add the output modules first, and then, add the input modules.

Example Input: 40 bytes / Output: 48bytes (set in the RC+ window)

Slot 1: 32 bytes output module

Slot 2: 16 bytes output module

(Set 48 bytes in total for the Output)

Slot 4: 32 bytes input module

Slot 5: 8 bytes input module

(Set 40 bytes in total for the Input.)
