The process image is part of the system memory of the DP master. At the
beginning of the cyclical program the signal stati of the inputs are transmitted to
the process image of the inputs. At the end of the cyclical program, the process
image of the outputs is transmitted to the DP slave as a signal status.
Soft starters with PROFIBUS DP have the following process image:
• Process image with 2 byte outputs / 2 byte inputs (16 O / 16 I)
