9. Configuration

This chapter contains information on how to adapt

the function and performance of the YVP110 to suit

specific applications. Because two or more devices

are connected to Fieldbus, settings including the

requirements of all devices need to be determined.

Practically, the following steps must be taken.

(1) Network design

Determines the devices to be connected to

Fieldbus and checks the capacity of the power

supply.

(2) Network definition

Determines the tag and node addresses for all

devices.

(3) Definition of combining function blocks

Determines the method for combination

between each function block.

(4) Setting tags and addresses

Sets the PD Tag and node addresses one by

one for each device.

(5) Communication setting

Sets the link between communication

parameters and function blocks.

(6) Block setting

Sets the parameters for function blocks.

The following section describes each step of the

procedure in the order given. Using a dedicated

configuration tool allows the procedure to be

significantly simplified. This section describes the

procedure to be assigned for a host which has

relatively simple functions. For operation of the

host, refer to the instruction manual for each host.

No details of the host are explained in the rest of

this material.

IMPORTANT

Connecting a Fieldbus configuration tool

to a loop with its existing host may cause

communication data scrambles resulting in a

functional disorder or a system failure.

IMPORTANT

Do not turn off the power immediately after

setting. If the power is turned off within 40

seconds after setting is made, the modified

parameters are not saved and the settings return

to the original values.

9.1 Network Design

Select the devices to be connected to the Fieldbus

network. (Refer to 8.4 'System Configuration' for

selection of the devices.)
First, check the capacity of the power supply. The

power supply capacity must be greater than the

sum of the maximum current consumed by all

devices to be connected to Fieldbus. The maximum

current consumed (power supply voltage 9 V to 32

V) for YVP110 is 17 mA. The cable must have the

spur in a minimum length with terminators installed

at both ends of the trunk.

9.2 Network Definition

Before connection of devices with Fieldbus, define

the Fieldbus network. Allocate PD Tag and node

addresses to all devices (excluding such passive

devices as terminators).
The PD Tag is the same as the conventional

one used for the device. Up to 32 alphanumeric

characters may be used for definition. Use a

hyphen as a delimiter as required.
The node address is used to specify devices for

communication purposes. Because data is too

long for a PD Tag, the host uses the node address

in place of the PD Tag for communication. A range

of 20 to 247 (or hexadecimal 0x14 to 0xF7) can

be set. Generally, the device (LM device) with bus

control function (Link Master function) is allocated

from a smaller address number (20) side, and other

devices (BASIC device) without bus control function

allocated from a larger address number (247) side

respectively.
