BUS_INFO (STRUCT)

TYPE BUS_INFO : STRUCT

This structure provides basic information on a fieldbus:

• eType: Type of fieldbus. See BUS_TYPE.

• idSystem: Unique system ID for the identification of the fieldbus.

  Bus Type	Interpretation
  CANbus	Network ID
  Profibus DP	MasterID (see also Master-FB Property)
  DeviceNet	Network ID
  EtherCAT	low DWORD of the MAC address of the master
  Sercos III	CAA.gc_idMAX_IDENT
  Profinet IO	MasterID (see also Controller-FB Property)
  Modbus TCP	CAA.gc_idMAX_IDENT
  Modbus RTU	CAA.gc_idMAX_IDENT
  EtherNet/IP	IP address
  AS Interface	CAA.gc_idMAX_IDENT
  Ethernet	IP address
  Serial Line	number of COM port

• idInstance: Instance number in I/O configuration (starting by 0).

  Example

  First CANbus has instance number 0, second CANbus instance number 1, ...

Attributes:	qualified_only
InOut:	Name Type Comment eType BUS_TYPE Unique ID of the fieldbus type (e.g. CANopen, ProfiBus) idSystem CAA.IDENT Unique system ID for the identification of the fieldbus. The interpretation of this value is fieldbus dependent (e.g. NetID for CANBus). If the value gc_idMAX_IDENT is returned the system ID could not be determined. idInstance CAA.IDENT Instance number in I/O configuration.
