This function extension is available from version 06.00.00!
In some applications where controllers are installed in control cabinets or are positioned in
a spacious plant, it is often difficult to locate a device connected online for e.g.
maintenance work. There is an established online connection with the device but you do
not know where the controller is located physically.
The C00002/27
= "1: On / start" device command serves to carry out an "optical location":
For the time set in C00181/1
, all four status LEDs at the front of the controller flash.
Afterwards, the function is turned off automatically.
If the device command is executed again within the set time period, the duration is
extended accordingly.
The setting C00002/27
= "0: Off / ready" serves to abort or switch off the function.
Adjustable time period: 0 ... 6000 s (Lenze setting: 5 s)
Tip!
The device search function can also be activated via the toolbar icon.
