I am attempting to understand how to configure a 4105-MCM-PDPS gateway module and I do not yet have the hardware. I have a few questions:
1) When setting up the MODBUS port commands, if I want to map 5 coils, would I then set up the register count at 5, and lets say I want the coils placed in the internal address register at address 0. Would the 5 coils be placed in bits 0-4 of that internal address word or do I need to allocate one word in the internal database for each coil?
2) In the S7300 hardware config, when I set up the prolinx on the profibus network, what value do I place in the DP Slave Properties-Station parameters-SPC3 User PRM byte? Also what value do I place in the Hex parameter assignment-User_PRM_Data(0) field.?
3) Do I also need to use the sycon software to configure the profibus portion of the gateway?
Thank you- Debbie
