MVI69-PDPS DTM (Device Type Manager) is a standard way to provide all necessary data and functionality for a communication device, for example a PROFIBUS DP card. This technology is similar to the way Microsoft Windows supports printer drivers supplied by manufacturers and available to any Windows application, rather than requiring a custom printer driver for each specific application. PROFIBUS comDTM, distributed by ProSoft Technology, is a DTM for PTQ and MVI series PDPMV1 modules and ProLinx PDPMV1 gateways.

Configuration is available through Ethernet for the PTQ and ProLinx series PDPMV1, and through RS-232 serial for the MVI series PDPMV1 modules. Ethernet configuration is also available through the CIPConnect® feature for MVI56-PDPMV1 and MVI69-PDPMV1 modules (see note). PROFIBUS comDTM allows configuration tools, instruments, and communication devices on a field network to recognize and use the module’s capabilities.

MVI69-PDPS Note: MVI56-PDPMV1 requires firmware version 1.28.000 or later to support CIPconnect-enabled PC programs (1756-ENBT support). The 1756-ENBT card must be located in the same rack as the MVI56-PDPMV1. Bridging through multiple racks is not supported by the comDTM software. MVI69-PDPMV1 requires firmware version 1.37.002 or later to support CIPconnect through the Ethernet port to L32E and L35E CompactLogix processors.

Why Use PROFIBUS comDTM?

Customers from around the world have different machines, fieldbusses, and other end-user equipment. Each is equipped with the field bus requested by their end-user. Since there are so many variations, the automation solution in their standard machine ends up being different from case to case.

This means that service engineers need to have different configuration tools for every fieldbus. Or maybe even one for every device. You want one, but the reality is you have many. This is where PROFIBUS comDTM can help with configuring and communicating with different networks, products and suppliers.
