4. Commissioning
PLEASE NOTE
• Before commissioning, make sure that a
permitted field bus address is set on the
valve terminal (see chapter 3.2).
• Modification of the address does not
become effective until the operating voltage
of the valve terminal is switched off and then
on again.
• If the address is modified when the opera-
ting voltage for the valve terminal is switched
on, an internal fault will occur in the FIPIO-
bus and the valve terminal will no longer be
addressed by the bus.
Before the valve terminal can be connected to
the FIPIO-bus, it must be included in the system
configuration of the relevant application. The
following software package is therefore suitable
for the April controller:
•
PLC configuration editor. This is part of the
software.
This software enables you to configure and
commission the FIPIO-bus. It also creates the
necessary operating parameters automatically
and loads these into the controller. In the
following description, reference is made to the
English version of the ORPHÉE software.
