If the control unit is in manual mode, it can not be set to the "automatic mode"

Configurator is closed and the connection is interrupted, the control unit auto-
matically changes to the "automatic mode".
Manual mode:
In the manual mode, the aflex control processes only commands from the "aflexCon-
figurator". Commands via the fieldbus interface are blocked and not processed.
Release (2)

set with a command from the fieldbus interface or the button "General Release" (10).

all aflex actuators are switched off. The current release is displayed by the status (1).
If a release exists, this is displayed with "released", otherwise with "inhibit".
