    Hi,

    you must create a *.bin-file this a software called DP-Configurator from Softing. Copy this file to the home-folder at the controller and insert in the eio.cfg f. e. this line

          -Name "Profibus1" -BusType "PBUS" -ConnectorLabel "Channel 1 (M)"
          -CfgPath "HOME/ROBENTK.bin" -RecoveryTime 10

    I hope this is a solution for you.

    Thilo
