Distributed Peripheral (DP) Standard Communications
PROFIBUS-DP (or DP Standard) is a remote I/O communications protocol defined by the European Standard EN 50170. Devices that adhere to this standard are compatible even though they are manufactured by different companies. DP stands for distributed peripherals, that is, remote I/O. PROFIBUS stands for Process Field Bus.
The EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module has implemented the DP Standard protocol as defined for slave devices in the following communications protocol standards:
☐ EN 50 170 (PROFIBUS) describes the bus access and transfer protocol and specifies the properties of the data transfer medium.
☐ EN 50 170 (DP Standard) describes the high-speed cyclic exchange of data between DP masters and DP slaves. This standard defines the procedures for configuration and parameter assignment, explains how cyclic data exchange with distributed I/O functions, and lists the diagnostic options which are supported.
A DP master is configured to know the addresses, slave device types, and any parameter assignment information that the slaves require. The master is also told where to place data that is read from the slaves (inputs) and where to get the data to write to the slaves (outputs). The DP master establishes the network and then initializes its DP slave devices. The master writes the parameter assignment information and I/O configuration to the slave. The master then reads the diagnostics from the slave to verify that the DP slave accepted the parameters and the I/O configuration. The master then begins to exchange I/O data with the slave. Each transaction with the slave writes outputs and reads inputs. The data exchange mode continues indefinitely. The slave devices can notify the master if there is an exception condition and the master then reads the diagnostic information from the slave.
Once a DP master has written the parameters and I/O configuration to a DP slave, and the slave has accepted the parameters and configuration from the master, the master owns that slave. The slave only accepts write requests from the master that owns it. Other masters on the network can read the slave's inputs and outputs, but they cannot write anything to the slave.
Using the EM 277 to Connect an S7-200 as a DP Slave
The S7-200 CPU can be connected to a PROFIBUS-DP network through the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP expansion slave module. The EM 277 is connected to the S7-200 CPU through the serial I/O bus. The PROFIBUS network is connected to the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module through its DP communications port. This port operates at any PROFIBUS baud rate between 9600 baud and 12 Mbaud. See the Specifications for EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP Module for the baud rates supported.
As a DP slave device, the EM 277 module accepts several different I/O configurations from the master, allowing you to tailor the amount of data transferred to meet the requirements of the application. Unlike many DP devices, the EM 277 module does not transfer only I/O data. Inputs, counter values, timer values, or other calculated values can be transferred to the master by first moving the data to the variable memory in the S7-200 CPU. Likewise, data from the master is stored in variable memory in the S7-200 CPU and can be moved to other data areas.
440
Technical Specifications Appendix A
The DP port of the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module can be attached to a DP master on the network and still communicate as an MPI slave with other master devices such as SIMATIC programming devices or S7-300/S7-400 CPUs on the same network. Figure A-27 shows a PROFIBUS network with a CPU 224 and an EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module.
- The CPU 315-2 is the DP master and has been configured by a SIMATIC programming device with STEP 7 programming software.
- The CPU 224 is a DP slave owned by the CPU 315-2. The ET 200 I/O module is also a slave owned by the CPU 315-2.
- The S7-400 CPU is attached to the PROFIBUS network and is reading data from the CPU 224 by means of XGET instructions in the S7-400 CPU user program.

Figure A-27 EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP Module and CPU 224 on a PROFIBUS Network
Configuration
To use the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP as a DP slave, you must set the station address of the DP port to match the address in the configuration of the master. The station address is set with the rotary switches on the EM 277 module. You must power cycle the CPU after you have made a switch change in order for the new slave address to take effect.
The master device exchanges data with each of its slaves by sending information from its output area to the slave’s output buffer (called a “Receive mailbox”). The slave responds to the message from the master by returning an input buffer (called a “Send mailbox”) which the master stores in an input area.

Figure A-28 V Memory and I/O Address Area
Figure A-28 shows an example of the V memory and I/O address area of a PROFIBUS-DP Master.
The EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP can be configured by the DP master to accept output data from the master and return input data to the master. The output and input data buffers reside in the variable memory (V memory) of the S7-200 CPU. When you configure the DP master, you define the byte location in V memory where the output data buffer should start as part of the parameter assignment information for the EM 277. You also define the I/O configuration as the amount of output data to be written to the S7-200 CPU and amount of input data to be returned from the S7-200 CPU. The EM 277 determines the size of the input and output buffers from the I/O configuration. The DP master writes the parameter assignment and I/O configuration information to the EM 277 PROFIBUS DP module. The EM 277 then transfers the V memory address and input and output data lengths to the S7-200 CPU.
Figure A-28 shows a memory model of the V memory in a CPU 224 and the I/O address areas of a DP master CPU. In this example, the DP master has defined an I/O configuration of 16 output bytes and 16 input bytes, and a V memory offset of 5000. The output buffer and input buffer lengths in the CPU 224 (determined from the I/O configuration) are both 16 bytes long. The output data buffer starts at V5000; the input buffer immediately follows the output buffer and begins at V5016. The output data (from the master) is placed in V memory at V5000. The input data (to the master) is taken from the V memory at V5016.
441
Tip If you are working with a data unit (consistent data) of three bytes or data units greater than four bytes, you must use SFC14 to read the inputs of the DP slave and SFC15 to address the outputs of the DP slave. For more information, see the System Software for S7-300 and S7-400 System and Standard Functions Reference Manual.
Table A-42 lists the configurations that are supported by the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module. The default configuration for the EM 277 module is two words of input and two words of output.

\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|} \hline Configuration & Inputs to Master & Outputs from Master & Data Consistency \ \hline 1 & 1 word & 1 word & \multirow{12}{}{Word Consistency} \ \cline{1-3} 2 & 2 words & 2 words & \ \cline{1-3} 3 & 4 words & 4 words & \ \cline{1-3} 4 & 8 words & 8 words & \ \cline{1-3} 5 & 16 words & 16 words & \ \cline{1-3} 6 & 32 words & 32 words & \ \cline{1-3} 7 & 8 words & 2 words & \ \cline{1-3} 8 & 16 words & 4 words & \ \cline{1-3} 9 & 32 words & 8 words & \ \cline{1-3} 10 & 2 words & 8 words & \ \cline{1-3} 11 & 4 words & 16 words & \ \cline{1-3} 12 & 8 words & 32 words & \ \hline 13 & 2 bytes & 2 bytes & \multirow{4}{}{Byte Consistency} \ \cline{1-3} 14 & 8 bytes & 8 bytes & \ \cline{1-3} 15 & 32 bytes & 32 bytes & \ \cline{1-3} 16 & 64 bytes & 64 bytes & \ \hline 17 & 4 bytes & 4 bytes & \multirow{4}{*}{Buffer Consistency} \ \cline{1-3} 18 & 8 bytes & 8 bytes & \ \cline{1-3} 19 & 12 bytes & 12 bytes & \ \cline{1-3} 20 & 16 bytes & 16 bytes & \ \hline \end{tabular}
You can configure the location of the input and output buffers to be anywhere in the V memory of the S7-200 CPU. The default address for the input and output buffers is VB0. The location of the input and output buffers is part of the parameter assignment information that the master writes to the S7-200 CPU. You configure the master to recognize its slaves and to write the required parameters and I/O configuration to each of its slaves.
Use the following tools to configure the DP master:
- For SIMATIC S5 masters, use COM PROFIBUS Windows software
- For SIMATIC S7 masters, use STEP 7 programming software
- For SIMATIC 505 masters, use COM PROFIBUS and either TIS OFT2 or SoftShop
For detailed information about using these configuration and programming software packages, refer to the manuals for these devices. For detailed information about the PROFIBUS network and its components, refer to the ET 200 Distributed I/O System Manual.
442
Data Consistency
PROFIBUS supports three types of data consistency:
- Byte consistency ensures that bytes are transferred as whole units.
- Word consistency ensures that word transfers cannot be interrupted by other processes in the CPU (the two bytes composing the word are always moved together and cannot be split). Use Word consistency if the data values being transferred are integers.

Figure A-29 Byte, Word, and Buffer Data Consistency
- Buffer consistency ensures that the entire buffer of data is transferred as a single unit, uninterrupted by any other process in the CPU. Buffer consistency should be used if the data values are double words or floating point values or when a group of values all relate to one calculation or item.
You set the data consistency as part of the I/O configuration in the master. The data consistency selection is written to the DP slave as part of the initialization of the slave. Both the DP master and the DP slave use the data consistency selection to be sure that data values (bytes, words, or buffers) are transferred uninterrupted within master and slave. The different types of consistency are shown in Figure A-29.
User Program Considerations
Once the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module has been successfully configured by a DP master, the EM 277 and the DP master enter data exchange mode. In data exchange mode, the master writes output data to the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module, the EM 277 module then responds with most current S7-200 CPU input data. The EM 277 module continuously updates its inputs from the S7-200 CPU in order to provide the most recent input data to the DP Master. The module then transfers the output data to the S7-200 CPU. The output data from the master is placed into V memory (the output buffer) starting at the address that the DP master supplied during initialization. The input data to the master is taken from the V memory locations (the input buffer) immediately following the output data.
The output data from the master must be moved by the user program in the S7-200 CPU from the output buffer to the data areas where it is to be used. Likewise, the input data to the master must be moved from the various data areas to the input buffer for transfer to the master.
Output data from the DP master is placed into V memory immediately after the user program portion of the scan has been executed. Input data (to the master) is copied from V memory to the EM 277 for transfer to the master at the same time.
Output data from the master is only written into V memory when there is new data available from the master.
Input data to the master are transmitted to the master on the next data exchange with the master. The starting address of the data buffers in V memory and the size of the buffers must be known at the time the user program for the S7-200 CPU is created.
Status Information
There are 50 bytes of special memory (SM) allocated to each intelligent module based on its physical position. The module updates the SM locations corresponding to the modules’ relative position to the CPU (with respect to other modules). If it is the first module, it updates SMB200 through SMB249. If it is the second module, it updates SMB250 through SMB299, and so on. See Table A-43.
Table A-43 Special Memory Bytes SMB200 to SMB549
| Intelligent Module in Slot 0 | Intelligent Module in Slot 1 | Intelligent Module in Slot 2 | Intelligent Module in Slot 3 | Intelligent Module in Slot 4 | Intelligent Module in Slot 5 | Intelligent Module in Slot 6 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SMB200 to SMB249 | SMB250 to SMB299 | SMB300 to SMB349 | SMB350 to SMB399 | SMB400 to SMB449 | SMB450 to SMB499 | SMB500 to SMB549 |
These SM locations show default values if DP communications have not been established with a master. After a master has written parameters and I/O configuration to the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module, these SM locations show the configuration set by the DP master. You should check the protocol status byte (for example SMB224 for slot 0) to be sure that the EM 277 is currently in data exchange mode with the master before using the information in the SM locations shown in Table A-44, or data in the V memory buffer.
Tip
You cannot configure the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP I/O buffer sizes or buffer location by writing to SM memory locations. Only the DP master can configure the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module for DP operation.

LED Status Indicators for the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP
The EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module has four status LEDs on the front panel to indicate the operational state of the DP port:
After the S7-200 CPU is turned on, the DX MODE LED remains off as long as DP communications are not attempted.
Once DP communications have been successfully initiated (the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module has entered data exchange mode with the master), the DX MODE LED turns green and remains on until data exchange mode is exited.
If DP communications are lost, which forces the EM 277 module to exit data exchange mode, the DX MODE LED turns OFF and the DP ERROR LED turns red. This condition persists until the S7-200 CPU is powered off or data exchange is resumed.
If there is an error in the I/O configuration or parameter information that the DP master is writing to the EM 277 module, the DP ERROR LED flashes red.
If user 24 VDC is not provided, the POWER LED will be off.
Table A-45 summarizes the status indications signified by the EM 277 status LEDs.
Table A-45 EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP Module Status LEDs
Note: When the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module is used exclusively as an MPI slave, only the green Power LED is on.
Additional Configuration Features
The EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module can be used as a communications interface to other MPI masters, whether or not it is being used as a PROFIBUS-DP slave. The module can provide a connection from the S7-300/400 to the S7-200 using the XGET/XPUT functions of the S7-300/400. STEP 7-Micro/WIN and a network card (such as the CP5611) using the MPI or PROFIBUS parameter set, an OP device or the TD 200 (Rel. 2.0 or greater, order number 6ES7 272-0AA20-0YA0) can be used to communicate with the S7-200 through the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module.
A maximum of six connections (six devices) in addition to the DP master can be connected to the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module. One connection is reserved for a programming device (PG) and one is reserved for an operator panel (OP). The other four connections can be used by any MPI master. In order for the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module to communicate with multiple masters, all masters must be operating at the same baud rate. See the Figure A-30 for one possible network configuration.
When the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module is used for MPI communications, the MPI master must use the station address of the module for all messages that are sent to the S7-200 to which the module is connected. MPI messages sent to the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module are passed on to the S7-200.
The EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module is a slave module and cannot be used for communications between S7-200 PLCs using the NETR and NETW functions. The EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP module cannot be used for Freeport communications.

Device Database File: GSD
Different PROFIBUS devices have different performance characteristics. These characteristics differ with respect to functionality (for example, the number of I/O signals and diagnostic messages) or bus parameters, such as transmission speed and time monitoring. These parameters vary for each device type and vendor, and are usually documented in a technical manual. To help you achieve a simple configuration of PROFIBUS, the performance characteristics of a particular device are specified in an electronic data sheet called a device database file, or GSD file. Configuration tools based on GSD files allow simple integration of devices from different vendors in a single network.
The device database file provides a comprehensive description of the characteristics of a device in a precisely defined format. These GSD files are prepared by the vendor for each type of device and made available to the PROFIBUS user. The GSD file allows the configuration system to read in the characteristics of a PROFIBUS device and use this information when configuring the network.
The latest versions of the COM PROFIBUS or STEP 7 software include configuration files for the EM 277 PROFIBUS-DP Module. If your version of software does not include a configuration file for the EM 277, you can access the latest GSD file (SIEM089D.GSD) at website www.profibus.com.
If you are using a non-Siemens master device, refer to the documentation provided by the manufacturer on how to configure the master device by using the GSD file.

Sample Program for DP Communications to a CPU
A sample program in Statement List for the PROFIBUS-DP module in slot 0 for a CPU that uses the DP port information in SM memory is shown below. The program determines the location of the DP buffers from SMW226 and the sizes of the buffers from SMB228 and SMB229. This information is used to copy the data in the DP output buffer to the process-image output register of the CPU. Similarly, the data in the process-image input register of the CPU are copied into the V memory input buffer.
In the following sample program for a DP module in position 0, the DP configuration data in the SM memory area provides the configuration of the DP slave. The program uses the following data:
| Address | Description |
|---|---|
| SMW220 | DP Module Error Status |
| SMB224 | DP Status |
| SMB225 | Master Address |
| SMW226 | V memory offset of outputs |
