The DELT1630.GSD file contains many configuration module entries. When adding an RMC to

your PROFIBUS network in the step below, you will need to select exactly one of these

configuration modules. Each of these modules is assigned a title, which is often referred to by

PROFIBUS configuration software as an Order Number.

The first factor to take into consideration when determining the correct GSD order number is

which operation mode you intend to use: Compact (with or without Sync) or Message Mode. If

you do not know the difference between these modes or have not yet determined which is right

for your application, please read these topics.

If you are using Message Mode, then the correct configuration module to select in the GSD file is

entitled Message Mode.

If you are using Compact Mode, then the correct configuration module depends on (1) whether

you wish to use a synchronization register or not, and (2) the configuration of the RMC itself.

Example order numbers in the GSD file include 2 Axes with Sync, 4 Axes without Sync, and 4

Axes and DI/O with Sync. To help you select the correct Compact Mode order number, do the

following:

1. Start RMCWin

2. Connect to the RMC module to be configured.

3. On the Tools menu, click Module Configuration.

4. In the Slots list, click the PROFIBUS-DP item.

5. Click Slot options.

6. Look in the Acceptable GSD Config Modules list. The second and third entries are the

appropriate Compact Mode with and without Sync choices respectively.

Configuring your PROFIBUS Network

The PROFIBUS network configuration is stored in the master PROFIBUS device. Creating this

configuration is the most difficult step in making the network work. This step requires a device

description file (GSD file) from each device in the network; the RMC’s GSD file is named

DELT1630.GSD and is installed by the RMCWin software package.

The following steps outline configuring your PROFIBUS-DP network. The steps are general

because several master configuration programs are available, and each handles these steps

differently.

1. If you are using Analog cards (12-bit or 16-bit), you must first select the mode of operation for

each analog channel. This must be done first because it may change the count of axes the

module contains. See Analog Transducer Configuration for details.
