1 General information

1.1 Absolute encoders

With an absolute encoder each angular position is assigned a coded position value
generated by a code disc equipped with several parallel fine graduations tracks which
are scanned individually. On singleturn encoders, i.e. an encoder producing absolute
positions within one revolution, the absolute position information repeats itself with
every revolution. So called multiturn encoders can also distinguish between
revolutions. The numbers of unique revolutions is determined by the resolution of the
multiturn scanning and repeats itself after the total resolution is reached.

1.2 PROFIBUS technology

PROFIBUS is a powerful and versatile 2-wire non-proprietary open fieldbus standard
defined by several international standards such as EN 50170, IEC 61158 together with
different device profiles. There are 3 different PROFIBUS versions available today, DP,
FMS and PA. Leine & Linde products support the DP version. In addition to
manufacturer-specific functions, the Leine & Linde products support classes 1, 2, 3
and 4 according to the encoder profile 3.062 and 3.162 respectively. The encoder
device profile describing encoder functionality and additional information about
PROFIBUS can be ordered from PROFIBUS User Organization, PNO or directly from
Leine & Linde AB.

2 Encoder Installation

2.1 Settings inside the encoder

The encoder node address and bus termination must be configured during
commissioning of the device. This is done by removing the back cover, i.e. screwing
off the three screws at the rear of the encoder.

2.1.1 Node address

The node address of the device can be set via two decimal rotary switches located
inside the back cover. The weighting, x10 or x1 are specified beside the switches.
Permissible address range is between 0 and 99 but the lower addresses 0 to 2 are
usually used by the master and not recommended to be used by the device. Each
address used in a PROFIBUS network must be unique and may not be used by other
devices.

The device address is only read and adopted when the encoder power supply is
switched on. A restart of the encoder is therefore required in order to adopt changes
done to the address settings.

Bus termination on/off

Node address switches

(x10 to the left, x1 to the right)

Figure 1 PCB-view of a cable gland PROFIBUS encoder

2.1.2 Bus termination

In a PROFIBUS net, all devices are connected in a bus structure. Up to 32 devices
(master and/or slaves) can be connected in one segment. When more devices are
needed repeaters should be used to amplify the signals between segments. An active
termination must be added in the beginning and end of each bus segment in order to
ensure error-free operation. In case of the encoder such terminators are integrated
inside the back cover and can be activated via dip switches as shown in figure 1. If the
device is un-powered the A and B lines are internally terminated by a 220Ω resistor.

When encoder with M12 connectors is used the termination is conducted using
terminating resistor plug. The plug is assembled in resemblance to the M12 cables
and both male and female contacts are available in order to enable termination in
both ends of the bus.

The cable gland encoders should always be equipped with a shielded power supply
cable with conductor area between 0,34mm2 to 1.5mm2. Permissible outer cable
diameter is ø8mm to ø10mm. Located inside the back cover are two screw terminals
containing the required power supply terminals marked (+) and (-).

The (+) terminal shall be used to connect the +EV-line (9-36Vdc).

The (-) terminal shall be used to connect the 0V-line.

Figure 5 Terminal connection of bus line cables

Note: The two A and B-terminals are internally connected to each other so it does not
matter to which the bus lines are connected to.

2.3 Shielding philosophy

Figure 6 Cable assembling principal

To achieve the highest possible noise immunity and resistance against other EMI
related disturbances the bus and power supply cables shall always be shielded. The
screen should be connected to ground on both ends of the cable. In certain cases
compensation current might flow over the screen. Therefore a potential
compensation wire is recommended.

2.4 GSD-files
Absolute encoders with PROFIBUS can be configured and parameterized
corresponding to the requirements of the user. When the system is started, the
PROFIBUS devices are set and configured in DDLM_Set_Prm mode, i.e. the encoder
class set by means of the GSD file in the configuration tool and the operating
parameters are transferred to the respective slave.

Leine & Linde offers different GSD files depending on what type of PROFIBUS device
used (integrated encoder or gateway). In addition differentiation between DPV0 or
DPV2 functionality is also made by selecting different GSD file. All GSD files available
can be ordered or downloaded at www.leinelinde.com, for part numbers please view
datasheets or contact your nearest Leine & Linde representative.

GSD files
Encoder type and functionality GSD file
Integrated encoder, DPV0 enc_a401
Integrated encoder, DPV2 enc_0aaa

Table 3 GSD files available

When configuring the encoders various encoder classes can be selected as described
in the following chapters. Selectable parameters and functionality of the device
depend on the selected encoder class. This data, saved in the PROFIBUS master is
transferred once to the encoder when the system is powered on.

After the configuration and parameter data have been received the encoder enters
normal operation with cyclic data transfer i.e. "DDLM_Data_Exchange mode".

Installation of GSD-files:

1. Select the GSD file of the respective device on the floppy disk and copy the
*.gsd file into the respective directory of the PROFIBUS configuration tool.

2. Select the bitmap file of the respective device on the floppy disk and copy the
*.bmp file into the respective directory of the PROFIBUS configuration tool.

3. Update the GSD files (SCAN).

2.5 LED indication

In order to determine the status of the encoder two LEDs are visible from the rear end
of the encoder. The module LED indicates status of the module itself. The bus LED
indicates the status of the bus. The table below defines the diagnostic messages using
a red (BUS) and a bicolor, Red/Green, LED (MODULE). Function of the led indication is
the same in DPV0 and DPV2 mode.

Bus Module Meaning Cause

Dark Dark No Power
Red Green No connection to another device - Bus disconnected
Criterion: no data exchange - Master not available / switched off
Red Red No connection to another device - No connection to EnDat Encoder at
2) 2) No connection between EnDat base power up

3 Profile overview
The encoder device profiles for PROFIBUS-DPV0, DPV1 and DPV2 define the
functionality of encoders connected to a PROFIBUS-DP bus. There are two encoder
profiles available 3.062 and 3.162 defining the functionality of encoder for the
different versions of PROFIBUS DP. Please advise the picture below for an overview of
the two different encoder profiles and the standards related to these profiles.

Encoder Profile for DPV0, version 1.1, order no 3.062.

The operating functions in this profile are divided into two device classes. Class 1
encoders offer basic functions that all PROFIBUS-DP encoders must support. An
encoder of class 1 can optionally support selected functions of class 2 but these
functions must be implemented according to the profile. To support early PROFIBUS-
DP implementations the size of the protocol data units (PDU) is limited to 16 bytes.
Encoders of class 2 must support all functions of class 1 as well as the additional
functionality of class 2. In addition to the two classes, parameters and diagnostic
ranges are reserved for manufacturer-specific functions.

Encoder Profile for DPV1 and DPV2, version 3.1, order no 3.162.
Also in this profile there are two device classed: Class 3 offers the basic functionality
and Class 4 full scaling and preset functionality. In addition to the mandatory
functionality of Class 3 and 4 there are optional functions defined.

For further information regarding the Encoder functionality refer to the device
profiles. These profiles and PROFIBUS technical information can be ordered at PNO in
Karlsruhe, Germany (www.PROFIBUS.com).

Leine & Linde AB or downloaded from www.leinelinde.com.

3.1 DPV0 encoder classes

The encoder can be configured as a class 1 or class 2 PROFIBUS slave device. Class 2
configuration is extended to optionally access velocity information from the encoder.

Part Id: 634814-01 11

Document Id: 634814 Ver. 01
Publication date: 2008-02-05
PROFIBUS USER MANUAL Leine & Linde AB

CLASS 1 In the CLASS 1 configuration only output values are assigned.

Depending on the encoder resolution, this is one output word (16 bits) or
two (32 bits).

The following functions can be performed:

• Changed direction of counting
• Diagnostic data up to octet 16

Configuration data:
Singleturn Class 1 – 16 Bit: D0hex, 1 input data word, data consistency
Multiturn Class 1 – 32 Bit: D1hex, 2 input data words, data consistency

CLASS 2 In the CLASS 2 configuration output values and input words are
transferred. Depending on the encoder resolution, this is one output
word (16 bits) or two (32 bits).

The following functions are available in addition to the class 1

functions:
• Scaling function
• Preset Value Function
• Velocity read-out
• Extended diagnostic data

Configuration data:
Singleturn Class 2 – 16 bits: F0hex, 1 input data word, 1 output data word for
preset value, data consistency
Multiturn Class 2 – 32 bits: F1hex, 2 input data word, 2 output data words for
preset value, data consistency
Position + Class 2 – 32+16 bits: F1+D0hex, 3 input data word, 2 output data
Velocity words for preset value, data consistency

The selection of class depends on the demands required by the application but for
enabling full functionality of the encoder it is recommended to choose; Encoder class
2 32-bit velocity.

3.2 DPV2 encoder classes

In general, the encoders with PROFIBUS-DPV2 interface are divided into two classes.
Unlike in DPV0 there is only one configuration option, telegram 81, independently of
class.

CLASS 3 In the CLASS 3 configuration only output position values are assigned.
No added functionality can be accessed.

Configuration data:
Standard Telegram 81

CLASS 4 In the CLASS 4 configuration output values and input words are
transferred. Depending on the encoder resolution, this is one output
word (16 bits) or two (32 bits).

The following functions are available in class 4 parameterization:

• Code sequence
• Scaling function
• Preset Value Function
• Extended diagnostic data

Configuration data:
Standard Telegram 81

4.2 PROFIBUS data transfer principle

The PROFIBUS-DP devices can be configured and parameters set according to the
user's needs. In this context it is useful to know that with PROFIBUS there are
different types of data transmission.

4.2.1 During parameterization (DDLM_Set_Prm mode)

When the system is started, the PROFIBUS devices are parameterized (DDLM_Set_Prm
mode), i.e. the encoder class set by means of the GSD file in the configuration tool (see
chapter 3) and the set operating parameters (see chapter 4.4) are transferred to the
respective slave.

4.2.2 Normal operation (DDLM_Data-Exchange mode)

In the normal mode (DDLM_Data-Exchange mode), data are exchanged between
master and slaves. The preset value function can be carried out only in this operating
mode. The data exchange is described in chapter 4.5.

4.3 Configuration, DPV0

The configuration of a DPV0 encoder is conducted by choosing encoder class, i.e.
setting the input/output data structure. The configuration options are 16-bit, 32-bit or
32-bit + 16-bit velocity input data, for explanation view chapter 3.1.

4.4 Parameterization, DPV0

The PROFIBUS-DPV0 encoder is parameterized by means of the operating parameters.
The values selected in the configuration tool are saved in the DP master and are
transferred to the PROFIBUS-DP slave each time the network is started.

4.4.1 Code sequence

The code sequence defines whether the absolute position value should increase
during clockwise or counter clockwise rotation of the shaft encoder seen from flange
side. The code sequence is by default set to increase the absolute position value when
the shaft is turned clockwise (0).

4.4.2 Class 2 functionality

This bit enables or disables class 2 functionality. The Class 2 functionality bit for
PROFIBUS-DP devices is by default disabled (0). This means that this control bit must
be activated during parameterization in order to support the class 2 functions.

PROFIBUS USER MANUAL Leine & Linde AB

Note: If a class 1 encoder uses some optional class 2 functions, the class 2 control bit
must be set.

4.4.3 Commissioning diagnostics

The commissioning diagnostics function makes enable the encoder to perform
internal diagnostic test of the encoder components responsible for position detection
during a standstill of the encoder (i.e. light unit, photovoltaic cells etc.). In
conjunction with the position alarms, it enables thorough checking of whether the
position values provided by the absolute encoder are correct. The commissioning
diagnostics function is started by the commissioning bit in the operating parameters.
If an error is found within the absolute encoder, this is indicated in the diagnostic
function by the commissioning diagnostics alarm bit (see chapter 4.6.2).

The commissioning diagnostics function is an option. To find out whether the

encoder supports commissioning diagnostics, the “operating status” should be read by
the diagnostic function and the commissioning diagnostics bit should be checked.

4.4.4 Scaling function control

The scaling function converts the encoder’s physical absolute position value by
means of software in order to change the resolution of the encoder.

The parameters "Measuring units per revolution" and "Total measuring range in
measuring steps" are the scaling parameters set by the parameter function in octet 10
to 17. Scaling is active only if the control bit for the scaling function is set. When the
scaling function control bit is set to 0, the scaling function is disabled.

Note: After downloading new scaling parameters the Preset function must be used to
set the encoder starting point to absolute position 0 or to any required starting
position within the scaled operating range.

4.4.5 Measuring units per revolution

The total measuring range is calculated by multiplying the singleturn resolution with
the number of distinguishable revolutions.

The default setting for singleturn encoders RxA 607 are:

Measuring units per revolution = 819210 (213 )
Total measuring range in measuring units = 819210 (213 · 20)

The default setting for multiturn encoders RxA 608 are:

Measuring units per revolution = 819210 (213 )
Total measuring range in measuring units = 3355 443210 (213 · 212)

Table 8 Multiturn scaling parameter format

The data format for both scaling parameters is 32 bits without sign, with a value
range from 20 to 232. The permissible value range is limited by the resolution of the
encoder. For a 25-bit encoder with a singleturn resolution of 13 bits the permissible
value range for "Measuring units per revolution" is between 20 and 213 (8192) and for
the "Total measuring range in measuring steps" the permissible value range is
between 20 and 225 (33 554 432). The scaling parameters are securely stored in the
PROFIBUS-DP master and are reloaded into the encoder at each power-up. Both
parameters are output data in 32-bit format.

Example of scaling and entry:

If the user wants to scale the encoder to a single turn resolution of 4000 unique
positions per revolution and a total number of turn count equal to 3200 revolutions
shall the configuration be as:

Measuring units per revolution

= 400010 steps

Total measuring range in measuring units

= 4000 steps x 3200 revolutions
= 12 800 00010

Entry in the master configuration software:

Measuring units per revolution = 4000
Total measuring range (steps) = 12800000

4.4.6 Total measuring range (units)

The total measuring range is defined by the parameter "Total measuring range in
measuring units." The encoder has two different operating modes, depending on the
specified measuring range. When the encoder receives a parameter message, it
checks the scaling parameters if a binary scaling can be used. If binary scaling can be
used, the encoder selects operating mode A (see following explanation). If not,
operating mode B is selected.

A. Cyclic operation (binary scaling)

Measuring mode A is used if the encoder is scaled to 2x number of revolutions
(number of revolutions 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048 and 4096).

If the desired measuring range is equal to the specified singleturn resolution ≤ 2x

(with x ≤ 12), the encoder operates in endless cyclic operation (0 to max position value
, 0 to max position value, etc.). If the position value of the encoder exceeds the
maximum value (total measuring range) by a rotation of the axis to be measured, the
encoder indicates 0 as position value again.

Publication date: 2008-02-05
PROFIBUS USER MANUAL Leine & Linde AB

Example of a cyclic scaling:

Measuring units per revolution = 1000
Total measuring range = 32 000 (25 = number of revolutions 32)

Figure 9 Cyclic scaling

B. Non-cyclic operation
If the measuring range is used to limit the value range of the encoder to a value other
than the specified singleturn resolution * 2x, the position value is limited within the
operating range. If the position value resulting from rotation of the encoder exceeds
the maximum value or falls below 0, the encoder indicates the value of the measuring
range. See figure below.

Example of non-cyclic scaling:

Measuring units per revolution = 100
Total measuring range = 5000 (number of revolutions 50)

Figure 10 Non-cyclic scaling

4.4.7 Velocity control

The velocity data can be access if class 2 32-bit + velocity configuration is used. In this
case the input data consists of 32-position data plus 16-bit signed velocity data. The
input velocity value is negative in CCW direction if code sequence is set to CW. If the
measured velocity is higher then what is possible to present with the selected velocity
unit the value is set to 0x7FFF(32768) or 0x8000(-32768) depending on direction of
shaft rotation.

Note: If any of the time based velocity units is used and scaling is set to the encoder
the velocity calculation is based on the scaled position value. Consequently the
accuracy of the velocity value is dependent of the scaling set to the encoder.

4.5 Data transfer in normal operation (DDLM_Data_Exchange)

The DDLM_Data_Exchange mode is the normal status of the absolute encoder when
operated. In this mode the position value is transmitted from the encoder in a cyclic
manner. Output data can also be sent to the encoder i.e. preset commands.

4.5.1 Data exchange mode

The actual position value is transferred to the master as 32-bit values (double word)
or optional, the encoder supports a position value length of 16-bit for singleturn
encoder. The position value is right-aligned in the data field.

4.5.2 Preset function

The preset value function enables adaptation of the position value form the encoder
to a known mechanical reference point of the system. The preset value function sets
the actual value of the encoder to zero or to the selected preset value. The preset
value is stored in a non-violate memory in the encoder as input value when the
Data_Exchange function is activated. In case of a power interruption the preset value
is reloaded at start-up. If scaling is used the preset value function shall be used after
the scaling function. This means that the preset value is entered in the current
measuring unit.

The most significant bit (MSB) of the preset value controls the preset value function
as follows:

Normal operating mode: MSB = 0 (bit 31, optional bit 15)

The encoder will not change the preset value.

Activated mode: MSB = 1 (bit 31, optionally bit 15)

With MSB = 1, the encoder accepts the transferred value (bits 0 – 30) as preset value in
the binary code. The encoder reads the current position value and calculates an offset
value using the preset value. The position value is shifted by the calculated offset
value. If the input position value equals the preset value, the preset mode is
terminated and the MSB can be set to 0 by the master. The resulting offset value can
be read in the diagnostic data.

Note: The preset function should only be used at encoder standstill. Depending on
encoder type the number of possible preset cycles is limited; please consult
Leine & Linde for more information.

If an alarm is given, the Ext_Diag bit and the Stat_Diag bit in the diagnostic function
are set to high and remain high until the alarm is reset and the encoder can provide a
correct position value. Alarms can be reset (deleted) when all encoder parameters are
within the specified value ranges and the position value is correct.

Note: Not every encoder supports every alarm. For encoders of class 2 the diagnostic

enable the use of class 2 functions.

The status bit of the scaling function is set when the scaling function is activated and
the resolution of the encoder is calculated by means of the scaling parameters.

value is a 32-bit binary value with sign. The value range corresponds to the measuring
range of the encoder. The offset value of the manufacturer of the encoder is indicated

The scaling parameters are set in the DDLM_Set_Prm function. The parameters are
stored in the octets 40 to 47 of the diagnostic data. The "Measuring units per
revolution" and "Total measuring range in measuring units" parameters define the
selected resolution of the encoders. The status bit of the scaling function in the
operating status (octet 9 of the diagnostic data) indicates whether the scaling function
is enabled.

5 Encoder commissioning example, DPV0

This example uses a Siemens master and the SCOUT configuration software. The
example is intended to illustrate the commissioning of a PROFUBUS-DPVO encoder
with a 25 bit absolute rotary encoder and velocity information.

Copying the GSD file

First, copy the GSD file “enc_a401.gsd” and bitmap into the corresponding
directory in the Siemens configuration software,...\GSD.

Selecting the DPV0 Slave

To select the encoder click on the “PROFIBUS encoder” icon in the map
structure on the right side of the window. Use “drag-and-drop” to add
the encoder on the BUS, upper left view.

Figure 11 Commissioning example, DPV0

When dropping the encoder on the BUS a PROFIBUS address must be

assigned, naturally this address must be the same as assigned on the
hardware address switches on the back of the encoder, see chapter
2.1.1.

Configure the DPV0 slave

To configure the encoder for 25-bit position value plus velocity data
choose the “Encoder Class 2 32-bit velocity” configuration option in the
map structure. Add the chosen configuration by “drag-and-drop” to the
configuration window in lower left view.

6 Encoder functionality, DPV2

The PROFIBUS DP encoder can, by using the DPV2 GSD-file, be configured to include
DPV2 functionality. DPV2 functionality includes Isochronous operation, acyclic data
exchange and slave-to-slave communication. A DPV2 encoder can only be configured
to use standard telegram 81 for I/O data, meaning 4-byte output and 12-byte input.
Standard telegram 81 is defined in the PROFIdrive profile and adopted to the DPV2
PROFIBUS profile for encoders (3.162).

Standard Telegram 81:

PZD number 1 2
Setpoint STW2 G1_STW1

Output data from Master

PZD number 1 2 3 4
Actual value ZSW2 G1_ZSW1 G1_XIST1 G1_XIST2

Input data to Master

Table 32 Standard Telegram 81

The mapped signals are described in the following table:

Signal Abbreviation Length Input/output data

16-/32 bit

Control word 2 STW2 16 Output, control word

from master
Status word 2 ZSW2 16 Output, status word

absolute position
value from encoder
Sensor 1 position actual value 2 G1_XIST2 32 Input, right aligned
absolute position
value from encoder

Table 33 Telegram 81, signals

Control word 2 (bit 12-15) is referred to as “master’s sign of life” and the Status word 2
(bit 12-15) as Slave’s sign of life. These signals are mandatory for controlling the clock
synchronization. The G1_XIST1 and G1_XIST2 signals consist of the absolute position
values in binary format. By default G1_XIST1 are left aligned and G1_XIST2 right
aligned, in case of different format the shift factor is presented in parameter P979 (see
chapter 6.2.1). Both G1_XIST1 and G1_XIST2 is affect by changes in the
parameterization and in case of encoder error the error message is displayed in
G1_XIST2.

6.1 Isochronous operation

The isochronous operation mode is used when real-time positioning is required. The
basic principal is that all PROFIBUS devices on the net are clock synchronized with
the master using a global control broadcast enabling simultaneous data accusation
from all slaves with microsecond accuracy. The synchronization is monitored using
“sign-of-life” messages.

6.2 Acyclic data exchange

The acyclic data exchange is conducted in the parameter channel. The principal of
the acyclic data exchange is to enable parameterization during runtime. The acyclic
data exchange is conducted in parallel to the cyclic data communication but with a
lower priority. The parameters accessible in the acyclic data channel are divided into
different categories.

6.2.1 PROFIdrive parameters

The encoder profile for DPV2 has adopted certain standard PROFIdrive parameter.

6.5 Parameterization (Isochronous parameters)

The parameterization of the DPV2 encoder functionality is divided into two steps. The
parameterization data is transferred to the encoder in Structure_ Prm_Data blocks.

The parameters for the general encoder functionality are listed below.

Table 38 Encoder parameters, DPV2

The function of parameters, code sequence, class 4 enable, scaling and scaling control
is in analogy to the corresponding parameters in DPV0, for explanation see chapter
4.4.

Note: In order to match the timing requirement during isochronous operation the
encoder only tolerates binary scaling on the single- as well as multiturn
resolution.

The G1_XIST1 preset control bit enables the preset value to affect the position value
presented in G1_XIST1 or not. If the control bit is =1 the preset value will not affect
the position value in G1_XIST1.

Note: This bit only affect G1_XIST1, if preset is set it will, independently of status of
this control bit, affect the position value presented in G1_XIST2.

If the Ext_Diag enable control bit is set to =0 (default value) only the first 6-bytes of
diagnostics message is transmitted. If the bit is set to =1 extended diagnostics will be
available, i.e. the channel related diagnostics is transmitted.

The MasterLifeSign byte is used for enabling programming of the number of allowed
failures of master life sign. When the number is reached error message (0x0F02) will
be sent as diagnostics in the G1_XIST2 signal.

6.6.2 Error message

Error messages are sent in G1_XIST2. The Leine & Linde PROFIBUS encoder supports
error messages according to the profile.

Error Meaning Description

0x0001 Sensor group error The encoder is not able to provide a correct position value.
(Position error)
0x0F01 Command not supported The master application sent a command in G1_STW1 that is not
supported by the encoder.
0x0F02 Master’s sign of life fault The number of permissible failures of the master’s life sign was
exceeded.
0x0F04 Synchronization fault The number of permissible failures for the bus cycle signal was
exceeded.

Table 41 Error messages, DPV2

Note: If preset value is negative and an absolute preset is made error message 0xF01
(command not supported) is set.

The limit for error 0x0F04, Synchronization fault, is by default 5, i.e. up to 5

consecutive synchronization faults is allowed before sending error message.

6.7 Isochronous synchronization principal

The flow chart below describes the synchronization principal of the encoder when
adapting to a synchronized DP-cycle, IRT mode operation.

1. Start-up Standard PROFIBUS commissioning, i.e.

-Installation
-Power –up
-Configuration (DPV2 GSD file mandatory)
-Parameterization

2. Synchronization The encoder will synchronize with the DP-cycle according

to the parameterization selected.

3. Master Life Sign After synchronization the encoder expects to read Master
Life sign, MLS. The MLS is generated by the master and
presented in STW2, Control word 2 (bit 12-15). The MLS is
counted at each DP-cycle, 1-15 cyclically (0 is not a valid
value).

4. Slave Life Sign After the encoder is synchronized with MLS it acknowledge
by producing Slave Life Sign, SLS. The SLS is presented in
ZSW2, Status word 2 (bit 12-15). In accordance to MLS it
must be counted 1-15 cyclically (0 is not a valid value)
although it is not mandatory that MLS and SLS is equal for
each DP-cycle.

5. Operation mode After detecting correct SLS by the Master, potential error
codes must be acknowledge. This is done by the Master,
clearing bit 15 in the Sensor Control word, G1_STW. The
encoder will acknowledge by resetting the sensor error
code bit (15) in Sensor Status Word, G1_ZSW, and also
clear the error code message presented in G1_XIST2. If this
is done successfully, the encoder is in operating mode fully
synchronized with the DP-cycle.

7 Encoder commissioning example, DPV2 (Isochronous Operation)

This example is intended to illustrate the commissioning of a PROFIBUS-DPV2
encoder in isochronous operation. The basic principal for adding the encoder on the
BUS is the same as for the DPV0, see chapter 5. The exceptions are that GSD-file
“enc_0aaa.gsd” must be used and that “Encoder Class 4” must be chosen during
configuration.

Figure 15 Isochrone mode parameter settings, DP-slave

The different time parameter can be set whereas the time base
parameters are controlled by the master. The individual DP slave
isochronous mode settings enable individual data sample time as the TI
can be set uniquely for each slave. The “master application cycle factor”
is used if the application requires that the master application cycle time
is different from the BUS cycle time. Be aware that if the factor is ≠1 the
slave will not read “Master’s Life Sign” on each BUS cycle (for example if
the factor is set to 2 the Master’s Life Sign will only come every second
BUS cycle).

7.2 Isochrone Mode parameters settings-BUS

The “Isochrone Mode” parameter can also be set from the BUS. By
“double clicking on the BUS in the BUS structure view, see chapter 5
(upper left view), the properties of the DP master system is accessed.

To access the general BUS “Isochrone Mode” parameters take the

following actions:

Click on the “Properties” button
