2.3.3 Calculating the Checksums

The checksum (CRC) values are calculated from the PROFIBUS configuration

data, and compare the contents of the configuration file in the module with the

value reported by the processor. The checksum (CRC) value allows the

processor to verify that the configuration file is valid, and has not changed since

the last time the configuration file was imported to the processor. Any change to

the contents of the configuration file in either location changes the unique

numeric CRC value for the file.
If the checksum values do not match, the APP STATUS light illuminates on the

module.
1 In the PDPMV1 PROFIBUS Master Setup dialog box, click the Calculate

Checksums button.

2 Make a note of the checksum values so that you can enter them later if

prompted.

2.3.4 Printing the Processor Network Memory Map

The Processor Memory Map dialog box uses the information about your

PROFIBUS Master and slaves to display the data types you configured. You will

need this information to determine the memory areas your application will use in

the SLC processor.
