6.1 Adjustment media
In chapter "1.4 Adjustment“ the Profibus
adjustment structure was briefly explained
and the adjustment media for VEGA Profibus
sensors were shown. All VEGA Profibus
sensors operate in profile 3 and can be ad-
justed with:
- the adjustment program VVO on a PC with
Profibus card
- the adjustment program PACTware TM , in
which VVO runs as a subprogram
- the Siemens software PDM in conjunction
with an EDD (Electronic-Device-Descrip-
tion)
- the adjustment module MINICOM in the
sensor.
Adjustment with VVO on the PC
The adjustment program VVO enables user-
friendly adjustment of VEGA Profibus PA
sensors. All functions and options of sensor
adjustment are possible. The program runs
under Windows
® on a PC with a Profibus-
Master-Class 2 interface card on Profibus DP
level as Master-Class 2 tool. The VVO pro-
gram accesses the VEGA PA sensors via the
DP bus, the segment coupler and the PA
bus.
Adjustment with PACTware TM 1)
The adjustment with PACTware TM corre-
sponds to VVO adjustment, however in this
case, VVO runs as a subprogram of
PACTware
TM . The adjustment instructions can
be found in the documentation of
PACTware
TM .
Adjustment with PDM
The sensors can be adjusted completely with
PDM. However, some user-friendly functions
and many special features, like e.g. display
of an echo curve, are not available. In addi-
tion to the PDM software, an EDD (upon
request available from VEGA) is required for
each sensor type. The adjustment instruc-
tions for PDM are described in the PDM
documentation.
Adjustment with the adjustment module
MINICOM
With the adjustment module MINICOM, you
adjust the individual sensor directly on the
sensor or in the external indicating instrument
VEGADIS 50. The adjustment module MINI-
COM enables (with the 6 key adjustment field
with text display) all essential functions for
parameter setting and adjustment.
