The interface module is an accessory that increases the connections options of LAUDA constant temperature equipment. It may only be installed in con- stant temperature equipment that supports the interface provided. Refer to the chapter "Compatibility” in this operating manual for a list of compatible product lines.
This operating manual or parts thereof may not be modified, translated or used in any other capacity without the written consent of LAUDA. Violation of this may obligate the violator to the payment of dam- ages. Other claims reserved.
This operating manual is applicable in combination with the operating manual of the constant temperature equipment in which the interface module is installed. Manuals for LAUDA products are available for download on the LAUDA website: https://www.lauda.de The warnings and safety instructions in this operating manual must be observed without fail.
Use only suitable cables of sufficient length for cable connections. Make sure that the protective screen on the cables and connec- tors complies with EMC regulations. LAUDA recommends using pre- assembled cables. Always lay cables correctly so that they do not pose a tripping hazard.
After installing the equipment, dispose of the packaging materials in line with environmental regulations, see Ä “Packaging” on page 36. If you discover any damage on the interface module, contact LAUDA Service immediately, see Ä Chapter 1.6 “Contact LAUDA” on page 6. Interface module LRZ 917...
The Profibus module is designed for installation in constant temperature equipment that supports the Profibus interface. The Profibus interface allows the user to activate constant temperature equipment via the LAUDA command set (for example, control station). Combining the Profibus interface with an RS 232/485 interface is only permitted in conjunction with the Command remote control, whose RS 232/485 interface can be used independently.
Always observe safety measures against electrostatic dis- charge. The module installation description essentially applies to all LAUDA constant temperature equipment; the example diagrams here show the installation of an analog module in constant temperature equip- ment from the Variocool product line.

Using the module box You can extend LAUDA constant temperature equipment by two additional module slots using the LiBus module box. The module box is designed for interface modules with a large cover and is connected to constant tem- perature equipment via a vacant LiBus socket.
Switch on the constant temperature equipment after installing the new interface. Check whether a software warning appears on the display: Warning SW too old : Please contact LAUDA Service, see Ä Chapter 1.6 “Contact LAUDA” on page 6. No software warning: Operate the constant temperature equip- ment as normal.
Profibus system. The GSD file provides the Master with device information required for project planning. The bitmap file contains a symbol that shows a stylized plug-in module and the LAUDA logo. The Profibus project planning software can use the file to display a clear graphic representation of the overall system in certain situations.

When using compressed air: Always set a low working pressure to prevent mechanical damage to the connections. If you have any questions about technical modifications, please contact LAUDA Service, see Ä Chapter 1.6 “Contact LAUDA” on page 6. Interface module LRZ 917...
The procedure for rectifying a fault depends on the device. Follow the corresponding instructions in the operating manual accompanying the constant temperature equipment. If you are unable to rectify a fault, please contact LAUDA Service, see Ä Chapter 1.6 “Contact LAUDA” on page 6. Error messages If an error occurs on the Profibus module, the error number is sent to the Master as an external diagnostic byte.
