Configuration¶
Configurations for a Version ≥ 2.4
The following tables describe how to configure a Processor Module manually. Processor Module can be configured in RUN mode or STOP mode, hence this device state is called RUN/STOP mode in the following. By pressing the CFG soft key repeatedly, you simply navigate through the statuses of the device.
However, to configure the Processor Module, use the OK, ESC and CFG soft keys alternately.
The Processor Module is in RUN/STOP mode. By pressing the CFG soft key once, the IP configuration for Ethernet connection is displayed (IPETH1).
By pressing the CFG soft key again, address configuration for Ethernet connection is displayed (Adr000).
By pressing the ESC soft key, menu is aborted. You revert to the Run/Stop mode.
By pressing the OK soft key, submenu for Ethernet connection is opened. Either a static IP address can be set or a DHCP address is defined automatically.
Example: Setting a static IP address
The following example describes how to set a static IP address for Ethernet connection. This configuration can be done as of Processor Module Firmware Version 2.4.
| Procedure | Display |
|---|---|
| The Processor Module is in RUN/STOP mode. | |
| Press the CFG soft key until IPETH1 is displayed. | |
| Press the CFG soft key until DHCP is displayed. | |
| Press the OK soft key. A submenu for IP configuration is opened. Press the CFG soft key. STATIC is displayed. | |
| Press the OK soft key. A submenu for configuration of the address (A1 … A4) is opened. Use the Count up/Count down soft keys to change the values. Confirm with the OK soft key to save your changes. To discard your modifications, press the ESC soft key (you return to the IPETH1 configuration). | |
| Press the OK soft key. A submenu for configuration of the network mask (N1 … N4) is opened. Use the Count up/Count down soft keys to change the values. Confirm with the OK soft key to save your changes. To discard your modifications, press the ESC soft key (you return to the IPETH1 configuration). | |
| Press the OK soft key. A submenu for configuration of the gateway (G1 … G4) is opened. Use the Count up/Count down soft keys to change the values. Confirm with the OK soft key to save your changes. To discard your modifications, press the ESC soft key (you return to the IPETH1 configuration). |
The following tables describe navigation through the display of a Processor Module as of Processor Module Firmware Version ³ 2.4.

Setting of the FBP Slave Address on the Device (not recommended)
It is recommended to set FBP slave address by using Automation Builder software. Neverthless it is possible, however not recommended, to set this address by LED display of the Processor Module.
Attention
:strong:Setting the FBP slave address by LED display
Though it is possible to set the FBP slave address by using the LED display and softkeys, this is not recommended. Direct configuration on the device replaces address configurations defined via Automation Builder.
If the FBP address (set by Automation Builder or on the device) is different from the address assigned by the master device for the same station, the station cannot be accessed. The complete fieldbus cannot work properly or is completely down!
A modified address defined on the device is valid not until power OFF/ON of the Processor Module!
AC500 Processor Module equipped with FBP is always a slave device on the bus. To act as a master, the Processor Module should be equipped with a master Communication Module (e.g. CM572-DP for PROFIBUS® DP).
The FBP must have a properly assigned slave module address. The AC500 CPU gives them an address at system power-up. The address can be set with the use of the LED display and the softkeys on the front panel.
To configure the FBP address, please follow the procedure described below:
First select the item to be configured by pressing the CFG key. The CPU changes to configuration mode and a small triangle is displayed on the LCD on the first right up position of the display beside the ETH inscription and the already configured address is diplayed. |
||
Press one time more the CFG key to select the item FBP. The FBP address is shown and a small triangle is displayed on the LCD beside the FBP inscription. |
||
Press the arrow keys UP or DOWN to increase or decrease the address. The modified value blinks to indicate that it differs from the previously stored one. |
||
Once the desired address is reached, press OK to accept and quit. Or press ESC to exit the manu without saving the changes. The CPU status is then displayed run or StoP. |
or |
Note
The modified address will only be valid after a Power OFF / Power ON!
A Processor Module equipped with a FieldBusPlug is always a slave device on the bus. To act as a master, an AC500 CPU should be equipped with master Communication Modules (e.g CM572-DP for PROFIBUS® DP).
The FieldBusPlug module has to be connected to the master device and the power supply has to be provided. Please use the dedicated accessories to the FBP used for the desired Fieldbus.
