allow access for the program through the firewall to the Test
Controller.
If you use, e.g. 15 seconds, for the Add.(itional) Timeout, an
attempt to establish connection is interrupted after this
period. The option only needs to be used for very slow net-
works or links via radio, etc.
5. Search for the modules: Perform Scan.
If you receive a firewall message during the search, you have
to allow access to the Program Setup Wizard in order to be
able to establish a connection (requires administrator rights),
refer also to Section 6.2.3, Allowing access to network
devices (firewall), Page 113.
First the Test Controllers found are displayed after the
search. Mark the Test Controller to which the modules to be
set are connected and click on OK. The Test Controller is
addressed and the modules which have been found connected
to it are displayed in a list. If there are addressing conflicts,
you obtain a warning and the relevant modules are high-
lighted in red in the list. In this case click the column with the
address and select a different address if you are assigning
addresses via software. Assign unique addresses to all mod-
ules and click on Write changes. Having made the change,
again execute Perform Scan.
Tip
Assign the addresses starting with a number higher than 1, e.g.
starting with 3. You can then integrate new modules more easily
later, because the factory setting of the address is always 1.
If the addresses have been configured via the DIP switches in
the socket, when address conflicts occur, check the settings
(Section 4.1.2, Setting the address (optional), Page 21).
If files with the module settings exist, you can transfer them to
the marked modules using Configure selected modules. Other-
wise, create a project for the configuration (Section 5.2.3).
IMPORTANT
If, when reading out the module settings via the Test Controller
(step 5.), the message appears that the firmware version of the
Test Controller or of a module is older than expected, then you
should carry out a firmware update; refer to Section 5.10, Firm-
ware update, Page 105.
