Startup and validation
8.1
Initial startup
To start up, proceed as described in Table 8-1.

Steps for startup
Step
Relevant section and literature
Set the transmission speed and the mode.
Section "Setting the DIP switches" on page 4-2
Set the protocol/address.

Connect the bus system and supply voltage cables to the
VersaPoint station.

User manuals for the function blocks used
Before applying the operating voltage:
–
Ensure that there are no wiring errors (e.g., cross
circuit or short circuit) or grounding errors by testing
with a multimeter.
–
Check whether the ground connection is safe.
Connect the required voltages to the VersaPoint station.
GFK-2736 or documentation for the bus coupler
Connect the required voltages (U
M
) to the safety module.
Once the operating voltage has been applied:
–
If possible, measure the wave form of the voltages to
ensure that there are no deviations.
–
Measure the output voltages on the module, as well as
the supply voltages, which supply the connected loads
(e.g., motor) to ensure that they are in the permissible
range.
–
Use the LEDs on the devices to check that the module
starts up without any errors (there must be no red LEDs
permanently on; the FS LED flashes because the
device is not parameterized).
Check the assembly and installation.
