When the Locate Device button is pressed, all the LEDs on the front of the device will flash for 10 seconds. If
you have a number of devices next to each other on a DIN rail, you may not be able to see the sticker on the
side to identify the devices. Using the Locate button will allow you to clearly see which device you are
configuring on the DIN rail without having to remove the device.
Device Information
Under the Device Information section is a text box which shows the current device name. This is the name
that you can use to identify the device on your network. By default the device name is set to the product name
but this can be changed by typing the name you would like into the text box and clicking 'Save'.
To the right of the Device Name is the Location. The Location is blank by default but the location of the device
can be added to help identify where the device is physically located.
Below this is the CPU temperature and status of the power supplies. The temperature will be displayed in
green unless the CPU is getting hotter than it should, in which case the temperature will be displayed in red.
Also displayed is the state of both power inputs, +VA and +VB. The state will either be on or off, depending on
whether they have power or not.
IO Status
The IO Status section displays the state of the Analogue Inputs.
If the value read from the channel is within the full scale range then that value will be displayed in the
appropriate position for that channel. If the value is over the full scale range then the Over symbol will be
displayed for that channel, if the value is under the full scale range the Under symbol will be displayed, and if
there is an input error (such as an excessive common-mode voltage) the Break symbol will be displayed. The
most common cause of an input error is the AGND terminal not being connected to a suitable point.
Connections
The Connections tab displays information about any active connections to the device including the protocol
being used to connect and the length of time the connection has been established.
