Appendix
C
Module Configuration for PROFIBUS
After installation of the RTD/resistance module, you must configure it for
operation, usually by using the programming software compatible with
the controller or scanner. This appendix includes PROFIBUS configuration
information.
Chapter 3 contains detailed information on module parameters and
performance. While configuring your RTD/resistance module for
operation on PROFIBUS, refer to Chapter 3 for the following information:
•
module memory map
•
input data file
•
data format
•
filter frequencies
•
channel step response
•
channel cutoff frequency
•
effective resolution
•
module update time

RTD/Resistance
Modules (1790P-T4R0) Configuration of the 1790P-T4R0 RTD/resistance modules is accomplished
through PROFIBUS configuration software with easy-to-use-GSD files. To
obtain the GSD files you need to configure the module, access the
following website.
