10.4 Monomaster and multimaster modes with S5-95U as DP master
Monomaster mode
Monomaster mode means that there is one DP master on the bus. No other
DP master is operating elsewhere on the bus.

Multimaster mode
Multimaster mode means that there are at least two masters on the bus, for
example an S5-95U and an IM 308-C, or two S5-95Us.

Enter the entire bus configuration before you start exporting the data to an

If you change the bus parameters in one program file, you must always
re-transfer all bus parameters to each DP master.
