Connecting to the MELSEC-WS safety controller
As an example, the following hardware configuration may appear:
 Click Disconnect to go into the offline mode if you want to change the
configuration of the MELSEC-WS modules. Alternatively, you can click on the
Online edit mode button to make minor changes without having to disconnect
each time.
Configuration and verification of devices that are connected to the MELSEC-WS
safety controller is generally not carried out using the Setting and Monitoring Tool,
even if they can be addressed via the RS-232 interface of a MELSEC-WS module.
These devices have their own mechanisms for configuration and verification.
An exception is SICK EFI-compatible devices connected to the WS0-CPU1 or WS0-
CPU3 module (EFI elements from the elements window). These devices can be
configured directly in the Setting and Monitoring Tool by double-clicking the icon, or
alternatively configured and verified locally at the device via the RS-232 interface.
For this purpose, the SICK configuration and diagnostics software CDS is used. The
SICK configuration and diagnostics software CDS included in Setting and Monitoring
Tool is the product of SICK. For CDS, please contact your local SICK representative
(see Annex, Section 15.4).

Before removing the RS-232 USB converter (WS0-UC-232A), disconnect the PC
from the MELSEC-WS safety controller.
