Displaying PROFIBUS Network Nodes

If the module is operational, a list with all the nodes on the bus is created after
starting this function.
If the module is currently communicating and the module supports the function, the
list of bus parameters is created from local information of the module.
If the module is not currently communicating or the module does not support the
creation of a local list, the station addresses are queried over the network.
This creates load on the bus and can take several seconds.
Follow the steps outlined below...
1 Open the "Modules" folder in the navigation area.
Select the relevant module.
Click on the "Bus nodes" property object.
