Establishing A Pg/Pc Assignment - Siemens SIMOTION D4x5-2 Commissioning And Hardware Installation Manual

3. In HW Config, double-click in the graphical display on the PROFIBUS network whose
transmission rate you want to configure.
The "Properties - DP Master System" dialog is displayed.
4. Click on "Properties" to display the "PROFIBUS Properties" dialog.
5. Select the required transmission rate on the "Network settings" tab.
If you wish to activate an isochronous bus cycle, the setting can be made under "Options."
6. Confirm with "OK".
7. Save and compile the new hardware configuration, and load it on the SIMOTION D.
Note
If you modify the transmission rate of the subnet over which you are operating the PG/PC, the
PG/PC loses its active designation. You must then reconfigure it manually in NetPro or else
you will no longer be able to go online by means of this PG/PC.
Note
PROFIBUS DP functionality is both equidistant and isochronous in nature. As such, it can
guarantee that bus cycles will have exactly the same length and ensures deterministic
behavior.
Applications: Connecting drives or synchronized I/O devices.

Establishing a PG/PC assignment

Introduction
A PG/PC is required to create projects for a SIMOTION D4x5‑2 and download them to the
target device. The interface that can be connected via the PG/PC will be automatically queried
during the communications configuring. If you change these settings, you must reestablish the
active designation of the PG/PC in NetPro (the PG/PC connection must appear yellow and
bold in NetPro).
