4 ProfIPAQ Software and Programming
4.1 INOR PC configuration software ProfiSoft
INOR PC configuration software ProfiSoft is used to configure the ProfIPAQ via the PC, so
that the configuration can be done before installation of the device in the PROFIBUS net. To
communicate with the ProfIPAQ transmitter with the ProfiSoft software a standard PC and a
special communication cable is needed. This communication cable between the PC and the
ProfIPAQ transmitter is a special cable called IPRO-X, Part no 70IPRX0002, and is part of
the PC Configuration kit 70CFG00092.
As all ProfIPAQ units as default have the address 126 it is recommended to
change to the correct (desired) address before installing the unit in the PROFIBUS
system. This address change is easily done with the help of INOR ProfiSoft.
4.1.1 Installation
To install the ProfiSoft distributed on a CD, insert the CD in the CD slot of the PC, and the
autorun will start the installation program. Follow the instructions on the screen. In case the
autorun feature is disabled on your PC, execute D:\ SLCDMENU.EXE (where D: is assumed
