APPLICATION
A PD 601 DPI is used to provide local programmable intelligence for the local cluster connected via Light-Link P-NET, and to provide an interface with MODEMs, PCs or other serial equipment, such as printers, bar code readers etc. It uses the BM 003 or BM 011 base module.
The PD 601 is programmed in Process-Pascal, which is an extension of standard Pascal, allowing easy declaration and utilisation of P-NET variables and objects. Programs are developed and compiled on a standard PC, then downloaded directly via a P-NET interface. Program code can be downloaded to FLASH memory.
VIGO Licence
When the FLASH operating system is running in the PD 601, it can give licence to run VIGO version 5.3 or higher on a PC connected directly to the PD 601 via the RS232 interface.
SPECIFICATIONS
Communication
The PD 601 has 2 standard P-NET Communication Channels.
In the PD 601 DPI, Channel 1 is a P-NET RS232 communication channel, primarily for communicating with MODEMs or PCs, but also with other serial devices such as bar code readers and printers.
Channel 2 is a P-NET Light-Link communication channel intended for communicating with other locally mounted P-NET devices using the optical Light-Link interface.

Common information for DPI types PD600B, PD601B and PD602B
• PD681 Operator Interface is not supported in the B types.
• If a PD681 Operator Interface is used together with a DPI, we recommend that you continue to use the DPI type PD600, PD601 or PD602.
• If a downloaded program indicates “Unrunable” instead of “Running” in ProgramStatus.State, the reason could be that the program contains a reference to a PD681 as explained. Please consult the support department.
• If the variable “Screen” is present in the PD600, PD601 or PD602 DPI node type, it is very likely that the Process-Pascal program uses a PD681 Operator Interface and it will not be able to run because of the missing PD681 support.
• If a PD681 is declared in the Process-Pascal program, but no operator interface is actually installed, this part of the program can be removed before the PP program is recompiled to a new version and downloaded to the PD600B, PD601B or PD602B, since the Process-Pascal program has now become compatible with these new DPI types.
Info:
PD601B Large: 992 kBytes RAM memory is now available.
Please update or substitute the existing sys file to enable the Process-Pascal compiler to use the 992 kBytes RAM in PP program.
The RAM size for PD601 large is 480 kBytes. If 480 kBytes is sufficient, there is no need for update of sys file.
