PROFIBUS Slot and Index for Drive and Adapter Parameters
For accessing any parameter within a drive, a general mechanism is used to map
the parameter with a PROFIBUS slot and index number.
Every drive device port has a base slot number which supports 256 indices in a
slot. These slot and index combinations are mapped to various drive and adapter
parameters through the 25-COMM-P adapter. These are the general formulas
used to determine the slot and index numbers for a specific parameter.
Slot Number = Base Slot Number + Quotient of (parameter number / 256)
Index Number = Remainder of (parameter number / 256)
Due to PROFIBUS standard requirements of various identification and
maintenance functions, there is an exception to the rule for assigning Host (drive)
parameters. When accessing Host parameters, the slot number will start at 0x01.
This is the formula used to determine the slot number for a Host parameter.
Slot Number = Base Slot Number + Quotient of (parameter number / 256) + 1
The following examples illustrates the use of these formulas.
Example 1: To a c c e s s Host parameter 41[Accel Time 1], see PROFIBUS Slot
and Index for Drive and Adapter Parameters on page 48 to find the slot number
associated with Drive 0, which can be used to access the first 256 parameters. To
access parameters 257...512, the slot number will increment by 1, and so on.
For Drive 0, the base slot number is 0x00 + 1 (per the exception). Therefore, the
slot number can be calculated using the general formula:
Slot Number = 0x00 + Quotient of (41 / 256) + 1 (for Drive Host Parameters) = 0x01
The index number will be the remainder of the Host parameter number divided
by 256, as shown using this formula:
Index Number = Remainder of (41 / 256) = 41
Example 2: To a c c e s s Device parameter 5 [Net Addr Cfg] in the adapter, see
PROFIBUS Slot and Index for Drive and Adapter Parameters
on page 48.
For Device parameters, the base slot number is 0x15. Therefore, the slot number
can be calculated using the general formula:
Slot Number = 0x15 + Quotient of (5 / 256) = 0x15
The index number will be the remainder of the Device parameter number divided
by 256, as shown using this formula:
Index Number = Remainder of (5 / 256) = 5
