I currently am trying to communicate to 2 drives through Profibus. The GOD file for the drive has been successfully installed in the x-gateway using Anybus NetTool software. I connected up to the X-gateway through hyper terminal and set the configuration according to tech support. All the LEDS on the X-gateway show there is communication on the Ethernet and on the profibus end. However, when I try and "Monitor / Modify connect" button, I get the following error:
"Modules located outside the allocated I/O area exist in the configuration"
I am still able to go online with the X-gateway. It recognizes the 2 drives. When i click "online properties" for the x-gateway, it says "status OK" for both the drives. If i click "online properties" for either one of the drives it says
"Status: No IO Mem"
I cannot send or receive any I/O from the drives. I have spoken to the drive manufacturer and the tech support for the anybus. Nobody knows what to do next. I have tried many configurations and nothing has worked. Please help!
