DeltaV communications with Siemens CP1542-5

Hi all,

We have connected a DeltaV Profibus card to a Siemens CP1542-5 (as an I-Slave) we have set up the slot references to match what the PLC configuration is and according to the diagnostics all is looking good.

we can see values coming from the PLC and changing which we are happy with, however we seam to be having an issue with writing values from the DeltaV to the Card, i have set up a landing module which has a BFI inside and have connected some temporary parameters fields to the first 3 inputs, i have then connected the OUT_INT to a parameter which has an external reference to the slot i have configured for the outputs to the PLC.  the value coming out of the OUT_INT is 257 but this doesnt seam to be being sent to the external reference it is just showing 0 all of the time can any advise as to what the issue maybe with the external erefernce.

i added a temporary internal parameter and the value is reading ok to this from the OUT_INT.
