  • Page 31: Shock-Hazard Protection

    BECKHOFF Technical description 06/2007 Shock-hazard protection 6.9.1 Leakage current Leakage current via the PE conductor results from the combination of equipment and cable leakage currents. The leakage current frequency pattern comprises a number of frequencies, whereby the residual-current circuit breakers definitively evaluate the 50Hz current. For this reason, the leakage current cannot be measured using a conventional multimeter.

    BECKHOFF Setup 06/2007 9.3.7 Save Parameters and Restart You are going to finish setup and you have changed several basic parameters. Depending on the parameters you changed, two possible reactions can occur: Configuration parameters changed A warning appears, that you have to restart the amplifier. This is called "coldstart". Click "YES". The parameters are saved to the amplifier's EEPROM automatically and a reset command restarts the amplifier (takes a few seconds).
