Setup
configuration software.
With VISY-Setup the data protocol for communication with VISY-Stick must be
set to “Multi Probe protocol” . Due to the shorter communication times, it is
preferable to use “Multi Probe 4800 bps”.
For addressing, the serial number of VISY-Output 1 must be entered in VISY-
Setup.
Please follow the appropriate instructions mentioned in the VISY
-
Setup manual.

application. The following settings are possible:
(1)
Hold time after communication loss
(2)
Behaviour of the output after the hold time expires
(3)
Relay mode
(4)
Relay delay
After configuration, it should be checked whether the alarm signalling works as
expected.
2.4.1
Hold time after communication loss
The hold time (timeout) is used to determine whether and when the output should react
after a communication loss. The hold time can be configured from 0 to 240 minutes.
Hold time = 0 (minutes)
The hold time is deactivated. The output maintains its current status.
Hold time = 1
–
240 (minutes)
The hold time is set to 1
–
240 minutes. After the hold time
has expired, the output behaves
as described in the following chapter.
