5.6.2.1 Strategy 1
No conveying of components is given up. Components are merely isolated. In this
case, the "Direction" command is not required. For this, there is the possibility to call
up more different configurations and to control the intensity steps. If it is mandatory to
promote the development of components, Strategy 2 must be applied.
The digital inputs are defined as follows.

The possible states are described below. The formulas for calculating the intensity and
direction can be found in the operating manual.

In the aflexConfigurator, you must configure the fieldbus interface as shown in the fol-
lowing figure. By defining the outputs equal to the inputs, you get a response about the
current values of the aflex system.
