The interval must be matched up on both communications partners.
●

Maximum waiting (seconds) time for the response from the master to an authentication
request of the CP.
Exceeding the wait time is evaluated as an error by the CP. In this case, the CP
generates a Security event and sends this to the master.
Range of values: 1 ... 65535
●
Pre-shared key
The pre-shared key of the CP must be identical to the pre-shared key that the master
uses.
The key must have the key length configured above (2 characters per byte).
The pre-shared key can be configured in two ways:
– Manual configuration
Enter the pre-shared key manually as a hexadecimal value.
– Import as file
Import the pre-shared key from the file system of the engineering station if the pre-
shared key was generated by the master or another system.
