Device Management PROFIBUS & HART
3BDS011222-510 B 243
PROFIBUS Remote I/O with HART Modules.
1. Open Plant Explorer.
2. Switch to Control Structure.
3. Open the substructure below the Project object.
4. To insert a Remote I/O communication interface on the PROFIBUS, select the
CI854 object.
5. Click with the right mouse button and select New Object.
6. Browse to the required PROFIBUS Remote I/O gateway, e.g. S800’s CI840.
7. Enter the PROFIBUS address of the gateway placed, e.g. 20, in the Name box.
8. Click Create.
9. To place I/O modules on the Remote I/O gateway, select the gateway object,
e.g. CI840.
10. Click with the right mouse button and select New Object.
11. Browse to the required I/O module, for example AI895.
12. Enter the slot number of the module placed, for example 1, in the Name box.
13. Click Create.
The module for Remote I/O is inserted in Plant Explorers Control Structure and in
the Control Builder M project.
14. Repeat steps 9 to 13 until the required modules are created for Remote I/O.
Do not use the Replace Unit function for the units which have a DTM
assignment. Use “MoveDown” and “MoveUp” in Control Builder to adapt the
slave address. Otherwise, online operation with DTM may not be possible for this
unit.
DTMs exchange data with field devices using acyclic communication (DPV1).
CI840 and CI801 supports this type of communication, although CI830 does not.
Local I/Os always start at slot 1. For more information on I/O modules, refer to
the device specific product documentation.
