Commissioning a drive
8.1 Using the control panel
Activating the control panel
When an ONLINE connection has been established, the bar in the header area is shown in
color. The control elements are grayed-out – with the exception of the "Activate" button. The
remaining control elements become active after you have activated the control panel and set
the enables.
Figure 8-1
When you activate the control panel, you assume master control of the drive. The control
panel can always only be activated for one drive.
To activate the control panel, proceed as follows:
1. Click "Activate" at "Master control".
The "Activate master control" message window opens.
2. Carefully read the warning note and check the value of the monitoring time.
The monitoring time specifies the time during which the connection from the PG/PC to the
drive is cyclically monitored. The minimum value is 1000 ms.
3. Click "Continue" to confirm the monitoring time.
The message window closes. The control panel is then active.
Activating the infeed
If an infeed is available in your drive, then the infeed must also be activated. If it is not
activated, no further drive release can be set.
1. Click the "1" icon at "Infeed" to switch on the infeed.
