The DP/DP coupler sets up a connection between two different PROFIBUSDP networks. This permits the master of one network to communicate with the master of the othernetwork. Although this appears to be a master/master communication, it is in fact a master/slavecommunication.KeywordsKeywordsKeywordsKeywordsNetwork configuration, Hardware configuration, S7-300 CPU, S7-400 CPU, 300er CPU, 400er CPU,Master-Slave Entry ID:Entry ID:Entry ID:Entry ID:7764609 Date:Date:Date:Date:2011-03-28 © Siemens AG 2012 - Corporate Information - Privacy Policy - Terms of Use
