11.4.2 Creating groups with the
BCOM Group Manager
The
BCOM Group Manager
provides help for creating ISOMETER® groups. Open the pro-
gram and select ISOloop mode.
11.4.2.1 Creating groups
11.4.2.2 Switching rules
Source and target define the two devices that work together in a team when the coupling
switch connected to the source is closed. (Example: The upper coupling switch is con-
nected to device 1 => source is device 1 and target is device 2. Each combination of
subnet and device address may only exist once as source and target in an interconnec-
tion. Each device requires exactly and exclusively one other device as target.

The "Connection List" must contain all connections that exist in the installation. The follo-
wing figure shows the connections for the above example.
After all settings of the group have been made, the configuration file is saved.
File name of the configuration file
The name of the configuration file of the ISOloop interconnection is
"grp_0102.cfg". The name must not be changed, since every ISOMETER®
receives the information about the ISOloop interconnection from a file
with exactly this name. For documentation purposes, we recommend sa-
ving the file in a zip file, the name of which can then be changed.
A maximum of 10 addresses (devices) in one interconnection
Subnet specification in an interconnection (different subnets possible)
Freely selectable device description
Target address for "loop" information.
Each device requires a target in the interconnection
