Field bus address
A valve terminal is identified on the FIPIO-bus by
means of its field bus address. The number of
the field bus address represents the physical
address of the device on the FIPIO-bus. The
following field bus addresses are permitted:
•
Addresses 1 to 62 for the field bus slaves/val-
ve terminals
•
Address 0 is reserved for the master/PLC
(APRIL 5000)
•
Address 63 is reserved for the programmer.
The field bus slaves connected to the FIPIO-bus
must always have different field bus addresses.
Continuous simultaneous flashing of the LEDs
ERR and NET on the node of the terminal
indicates that the terminal cannot switch to the
FIPIO-bus, since the field bus address is already
used by another field bus slave.
