I try adding another node to the card is as SST PFB3 VME is a woodhead brand card. It not working property, the configuration that works has 9 slave nodes (node number 3,5,7,9,11,13,17,19,25). In addition, I have a repeater between node 9 and node 11. I try to add node 15 to the configuration. I just copy a working slave in the sst profibus configuration program to add the new node. I just change the new station from 0 to 15, check the offset to see if it is 00C0 (which it is) then I right click on the master and go to export binary save the file as config.bss then do the intrustion how how to load it until the card.

The problem is I get all green lights on the card. However, my node 15 drive has a fault stating it not receive information from the card. When I send information to the plc he receive it from that node in it location. Nevertheless, I do not receive anything on the drive. Also my last node (25) the information is being send and stored as node 21 which is not configure in the sst card. In addition, my baud rate of the profibus DP is 1.5MBps and repeater is check.

Any idea? Do you think I need to lower it baud rate?

Thanks for you help it appreciated
 
it work good with 9 nodes so it was configure right and to me it configure correctly for 10 nodes i think it the baud rate. the card does have dip swicthes do not know how they set up. Would it required a diferent dip swicthes set up for more nodes?
