7 Commissioning
NOTICE
The podis field distributor allows you control all decentral drives that feature digital control
terminals.Detailed notes about the commissioning of the respective drive can be found in
the podis system manual.
7. Setting the AS-i slave address at the podis
After its mechanical and electrical installation, the slave address must be set at the podis MOT.
The assignment of the desired AS-i slave address is carried out either via the AS-i master
or via an AS-i hand-held terminal (see the operating instructions of the AS-i master or the AS-i
hand-held terminal).
The podis MOT devices are delivered from the factory with address "0" (standard according
to AS interface specification).
Proceed as follows to set the slave address:
1. Remove the cap from the addressing socket.
2. Insert the addressing cable (jack plug) of the addressing device into the addressing socket
of the field distributor.
3. Preset the address. See the operating instructions of the addressing device.
4. Remove the addressing cable and close the addressing socket again with the cap.
NOTICE
Some addressing devices can generate error messages when addressing the bus coupler
via the addressing socket ("Prog"). If this is the case, please use the M12 AS interface socket
labelled X2.
7. Manual operation / on-site operation
The AS-i hand-held terminal can be used to read in the inputs of an AS-i slave or setting the
outputs. This allows for a simple precommissioning without the podis MOT being connected to
a control system.
If the addressing device is used to select the operating mode "Read and write data". the
drive can be controlled by setting the output bits.
When plugging the cable from the AS-i hand-held terminal into the addressing socket of the
podis MOT, any AS-i connection that may exist is decoupled at the M12 socket. Interlocks at
the controller are no longer effective. By setting the output data bit via the AS-i hand-held
terminal, the drive can start to move.
For this reason, this operating mode should be used for test purposes only.
