6-1 Overview
Message communications enable messages to be sent between nodes on a PROFIBUS network when
required by system conditions. It is possible for messages to be sent between a CPU and a PROFIBUS
Master or Slave Unit. You can use them to send/receive data; read time data, error logs, and other data;
or control specific operation, e.g., clearing the error log.
There are three types of messages:
• Explicit
• PROFIBUS
• Other
