Interface Cables and Connectors
The Profibus network is a balanced transmission line corresponding to the
standard EIA RS-485, terminated at both ends. The Profibus standard EN50170
defines two variations of the bus cable for Profibus-FMS and Profibus-DP.
Profibus Type A cable is preferred and recommended for all uses.
•Type A—recommended for high transmission speeds (> 500 kBaud) and
permits doubling of the network distance in comparison to Type B.
•Type B—should only be used at low baud rates and low requirements on
the network distances.
Impedance: 135 up to 165 Ωat a frequency of 3 to 20 MHz
Cable capacitance: < 30 pF/m
Core diameter: > 0.34 mm², corresponds to 22 AWG
Cable type: twisted pair cable. 1x2 or 2x2 or 1x4 lines
Resistance: < 110 Ω/km
Signal attenuation: max. 9 dB over total length of line section

Software for Application Developers
It is possible to disrupt an existing Profibus network by attaching an
improperly configured device. To prevent problems on your existing
Profibus network, read this chapter before connecting the AtlasPC
Profibus port to a network.
Many end users will be purchasing pre-programmed AtlasPC units
and will not need the information in this section. The information
below is aimed at programmers using the GAP programming tool
provided by Woodward. The information provided here covers the
basics. For more detail, refer to Woodward software manual 26103,
Woodward NT Real Time Operating System Service and Interface
Tools or software manual 26199, Woodward VxWorks Real Time
Operating System.
The information in this section is intended for customers that create their own
GAP programs for the AtlasPC platform and who are using a Profibus network.
Programmers will need the following:
•ApplicomIO configuration software CD-ROM (supplied with the AtlasPC
control)
•GSD file(s) for slave module(s)
•Device memory maps and scaling (manuals)
•GAP™ Programming Tool 3.03 or later to create the application (This can
be downloaded from our website: www.woodward.com/ic/software)
•For more information on these and additional software tools mentioned in
this chapter, see Woodward software manual 26103 (NT RTOS) or 26199
(VxWorks RTOS).
The AtlasPC control is configured to communicate with a Profibus network by
performing the following steps:
1. Verify that the Atlas contains a Profibus module.
2. Determine slave and I/O modules to be used.
3. Determine order of I/O modules.
4. Obtain GSD file(s).
5. Create Profibus Configuration using the Profibus Configuration Tool.
6. Review the Profibus slave manuals and understand the hardware
addressing.
7. Create GAP application which reads and writes to the Profibus I/O.
8. Transfer Configuration files and GAP application to AtlasPC control.
9. Start GAP application.
Profibus Software Configuration (Configuration)
The Profibus network is configured using a Profibus Configuration Tool provided
on CD-ROM with the AtlasPC control (ApplicomIO 2.1 Console). This tool
supports defining the AtlasPC Profibus board as a master or slave device. For
master operation, the slave devices are defined and configured by importing their
GSD files and assigning network addresses. Once the Profibus I/O configuration
is completed, it must be downloaded to the AtlasPC control and stored with the
GAP application.

AtlasPC Digital Control, Vol. II (Distributed I/O) Manual 85586V2

The Profibus master interface card in the AtlasPC control is manufactured by
Applicom International. All Applicom cards used in AtlasPC systems share IRQ 5.
Even though they can use other IRQ settings, it is necessary that they share IRQ
5 for proper operation and to prevent conflict with other devices in the AtlasPC
system. All IRQs are factory set and must not be changed by the end user.
All Applicom cards used in AtlasPC systems must use the same Base Address of
D4000 when configured in the ApplicomIO Console software. The following
example will show how to use the Applicom configuration tool.
a. Run ApplicomIO 2.1 Console.
b. Under File, select Configuration Manager. Select New if a new
configuration is desired, or select an existing configuration listed. In
this example, the configuration was named Config01. Application will
close and require a restart when a new configuration is selected.
c. Under Board Configuration, select Add Board.
d. Under Add New Board, select Diagnostic and Manual Configuration.

e. Select DPRAM Base Address D4000, Interrupt Vector IRQ 5, and
PC104/ISA PC104_DPIO.
f. Select OK.

g. Under Protocol, select Properties.
h. Select 12 Mbit in Baud Rate.
i. Select OK.
Before a slave head (Network Interface Module) can be selected, the associated
GSD file must be in the equipment library. If the GSD file doesn’t already exist in
the library, it must be downloaded and saved within the Applicom setup files
(C:\Program Files\ApplicomIO\2.1\Equipment Library\Profibus_gsd). In this
example, the ProSoft 3170-PDP GSD file (psft0882.gsd) is imported using
library, Add.
j. Select the 3170-PDP head under ProSoft Technology Inc. and drag to
the window on the right. This will open a 3170-PDP setup window.

k. In this example the Station number is selected as 001. (This is what is
referred to as the node number.)
l. Select the Modules Configuration Tab.

m. Build the module configuration by dragging the desired modules from
the Available Module(s) window to the Configured Module(s) window.
n. Select OK when done.
o. This completes the Applicom setup.
Once created, the Profibus configuration files can be found on the
programming station under c:\program
files\applicomIO\2.1\configIO\config_name.

p. Save the configuration and copy all files from the ConfigIO directory to
the AtlasPC control using AppManager. (C:/Woodward/Applications
directory)
Profibus Software Configuration (GAP)
After creating the Profibus I/O configuration, the GAP application must be
programmed to match. The steps necessary to program the Profibus module in
GAP are as follows:
a. Select FB_MODULE for slot 6 in the GAP application. All FieldBus
modules use the same Parent Block.
b. Select a FB_EQUIP Block for every node in the Network and list it in
the FB_MODULE Parent Block. Every FB_EQUIP block must have its
EQUIP_NO set to the Station number of its respective node.
For examples of a complete GAP setups for Profibus, see the
Distributed I/O Examples later in this chapter.

c. Once completed, the GAP application must be compiled and
downloaded to the AtlasPC control using AppManager.
d. Once the GAP application is started on the AtlasPC control’s PC, the
Profibus module will automatically initialize and start the Profibus
Network. All nodes will be updated from the Applicom module in a
circular queue fashion, once every scan rate. The GAP application will
update its values once every rate group (defined in FB_MODULE).
The timing of the Applicom scan rate will depend on the number of
groups (heads) and the number of nodes (I/O modules) in the
network and will be independent of the rate group structure.
