6.3.2 Operating SIMOTION D410-2 on PROFIBUS DP
PROFIBUS DP interfaces (X21, X24)
For connection to PROFIBUS DP, the SIMOTION D410‑2 DP has two interfaces (X21 and
X24) and the SIMOTION D410‑2 DP/PN has one interface (X21).
Table 6-1

PROFIBUS DP/MPI interface X21 X21
PROFIBUS DP interface X24 –
Transmission rates up to 12 Mbits/s are possible. Interfaces X21 and X24 can both be operated
isochronously.
Alternatively, the X21 interface can be used as an MPI interface with a transmission rate of
19.2 kbit/s up to 12 Mbit/s, see Section Configuring the MPI bus (Page 123).
In the delivery condition, PROFIBUS DP interfaces X21 and X24 are both preset as a master
with address 2 and a transmission rate of 1.5 Mbit/s. The PROFIBUS DP network is
automatically detected and generated for this setting.
However, other settings can also be configured. This requires that you configure the network
manually using HW Config and NetPro.
Note
Communication
with the SINAMICS Integrated of a SIMOTION D410-2 is always equidistant.
Here, the SIMOTION D410-2 is the master and the SINAMICS Integrated drive is the slave.
SIMOTION D410‑2 DP master-slave configuration
Master-slave configurations can be used, for example, to establish hierarchical PROFIBUS
networks that can be used to implement a modular machine concept.
