Hello Daniel , The document tells me that I have to check the settings in the pa network but the gsd tool procedure only tells me to generate the gsd file previously by adding the gsd of the pa instrument. Now you tell me that if I address the pa instrument correctly in the gsd tool, I didn't do this, I don't know how to do it, the procedure doesn't mention it, you could tell me how. the address of the instrument pa is the same as in abb and that of im153-2 also the fdc 157 did not address it due to the arrangement of the hardware it is working on since it is the im15-2 that communicates by profibus dp cpn the profibus master in this case CI854abb. The dip switch of the im153-2 is in 2 as in ABB, how did the fdc157 address itself? You could correct me with that since I did not do it because of what I explained to you lines above. The query would be how to address the instrument pa in the gsd tool, now is the im153-2 also addressed in the gsd tool? Because this as I repeat I did not do it because I do not know how and where to modify in a gsd file. I look forward to your comments, thanks for your support. regards I send you the file generated by the gsd-tool contained to im153-2 and vegapuls 63

Hello Hernan; From the VegaPuls 63 operating instructions below, you can set the (Proffibus-PA) address the instrument either through the addressing (rotary) switches inside the housing, or with software applications. Notably you can use PactWare (or Simatic PDM) function "set slave addrtess" as they both act as masters class 2 on Profibus. VegaPuls 63 Profibus operating instructions, Profibus-PA https://www.insatech.com/downloads/Manual_PULS63_Profibus_PA_36513-EN_120301.pdf Both PactWare and PDM are optional software that allow the calibration and configuration of PA slaves over the network (Profibus-PA, HART, Profibus-DP...). They allow for a supervisory view of instruments in the field, which is practical in large installations; whether you need them or not you have to decide for yourself. When the VegaPuls 63 is delivered, it comes by default with address 126 (max. address of a Profibus-PA instrument is 125), so it cannot be reciognized by the Profibus configurator. On your ABB network configurator (I believe they still use Sycon) you should see a Profibus-DP address for the Profibus-DP slave (IM 153-2, at add. 2 as set on the interface dipswitches) and a PA address for the VegaPuls 63, say add. 3 [since it is the first instrument configured on PA], both in the configuration and on the rotary switches of the instrument. The screenshot below shows the hardware rotary switches you can use inside the VegaPuls 63 housing. Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier |
