Address assignment after extension/
conversion
A special feature of the modular valve terminal is
its flexibility. If the demands placed on the
machine change, then the equipment fitted on
the terminal can also be modified.
CAUTION
If extensions or conversions are made to the
terminal at a later stage, this may result in a
shifting of the input/output addresses. This
applies in the following cases:
•
If one or more pneumatic modules is/are
fitted/removed at a later stage (type 03).
•
If an S-type sub-base module with single
solenoid valves is replaced by a D-type
module with double solenoid valves
or vice versa (type 03).
•
If additional input/output modules are in-
serted between the node and existing input/
output modules.
•
If existing 4-input modules are replaced
by 8-input modules or vice versa.
These modifications may also require
configuration modifications to the master.
If the configuration of the inputs is modified, the
addresses of the status bits will be shifted.
