Component Replacement and Plant Changes
5.1 Failure and replacement of bus components
For the procedure used to
replace components ...
Central racks
Distributed I/O
Note
After every component replacement
Make sure that all systems are free from faults and that the H-system is operating redundantly
and without errors.
5.1.2
Replacement of bus components in runtime
Introduction
The information in this section relates to the following bus components
● Bus cable
● Switches, hubs, bridges
Failure and replacement of bus components
Components of a bus system (plant bus, terminal bus, PROFIBUS) can be replaced when
there is no risk of accidentally affecting other components as a result of the replacement.
Before making a replacement, the following aspects must be taken into consideration:
