I am using Comsoft DF_PROFI2 with P&F Coupler to connect PA device. I am not able to configure the PA device in the configurator. I am getting "Station not Existent". Please help to resolve this issue.

Hello Kaush,

 

please select in the tab "Profibus" the Profile "user defined". Then you are able to set the bus parameters.

Hello Sven,

 

I am able to get my PA device online and see the parameters. I want to know how to get the data into labview. Is there any example or document which i can refer. I am using LV 2009.

Hello Kaush,

 

This link would give you a complete overview of the Modbus Library for LabVIEW - https://forums.ni.com/t5/Reference-Design-Content/LabVIEW-Modbus-API/ta-p/3524019

There is a tutorial on using the Modbus library as well as a demo on creating an I/O server with the DSC module.

 

Regards
