SCALANCE X101-1POF Button

What is the function of the button?
Using the button , you can display and modify the set fault mask and set the transparent link
mode (see chapter 4.5.8).
After continuously pressing the button, the currently valid fault mask is displayed for
approximately 3 seconds. The LED of the monitored port flashes at a frequency of 5 Hz.
Keep the button pressed to modify the fault mask. After another 3 seconds, the current link
status of the ports and the indicator of the power supply LEDs are displayed at a flashing
frequency of 2.5 Hz. Keep the button pressed. After another 3 seconds, this status is applied
as new fault mask and saved. The now monitored ports are indicated by the permanently lit
LEDs until the button is released. As long as the LEDs are still flashing, the saving can be
canceled by releasing the button.
If an empty fault mask (no port is monitored) is set or is to be set, the 2 port LEDs flash
alternatingly.
Simultaneously with the fault mask, the monitoring of the connected power supply is set. The
existence of the two power supply units is only monitored if both power supplies are
connected during saving the fault mask.
The failure of the link on a monitored port or of one of the monitored power supplies is
indicated by the illuminated red error LED. The signaling contact is opened simultaneously.
Note
The factory default is no port monitoring but monitoring of the power supply L1+/M1. If
necessary, error LED and signaling contact have to be cleared by pressing the button for an
appropriate period or the feeding point has to be changed when connecting only one power
supply to L2+/M2.
The setting remains after turning off/on.
