6.2 Configuring Slave Parameter
Caution:
The user parameter data and configuration of the 32DP-IF must always be consistent. To
ensure that the user parameter data and the configuration of the 32DP-IF are matching
each other, the user parameter data set should always be constructed by using the GSD file
that has been delivered with the 32DP-IF.
6.2.1 Configuring Slave Parameter by GSD file
The parameter setting of the 32DP-IF can be entirely defined using the GSD file that comes on
the disk together with 32DP-IF. For an easy adjustment of all user parameter data, the
Mitsubishi Profimap Software V2.X or a configuration software from another vendor which is
supporting extended parameter setting should be used.
Note:
In configuring 32DP-IF GSD file, first assign special function blocks, second extension I/O
units/blocks’ input data, and finally extension I/O units/blocks’ output data. The physical
placement of the module does not have to correspond with the GSD file order.
6.2.2 Configuring Slave Parameter by Programming Tool
The process of defining a parameter using the programming tool is shown in Figure 6.3.
Please only use a programming tool if configuring a single special function block. It is recom-
mended to utilize the functionality of the GSD file when configuring more than one. As it is
much easier to use for this purpose.
Caution:
Any mistake in changing D200 ~ D299 can lead to a different interptetation of the Profibus-
DP data, which can result in a malfunction of the connected I/O units/blocks and special
function blocks.

2. Turning M8020 from OFF to ON, 32DP-IF send parameter
(D200 ~ D299) extention units/blocks. After this data
furnish to be sent, M8020 is reset automatically.
