Profibus DP - General Information > Profibus DP in the DeltaV System

Profibus master configuration

Profibus master configuration consists of specifying the action the Profibus master takes if the controller fails, setting the baud rate for all devices on the network, setting the master's address, and specifying network properties.  The address for the Profibus master is 1. If the Profibus master is redundant, the addresses are 0 and 1. The DeltaV Explorer online help on the port Properties dialog provides detailed information on all the configuration properties for the Profibus master. The following table lists the supported baud rates for Profibus DP devices.
