Figure 22 Web interface: Config system bottom section (service mode).

shows the page “Config RS485”. For safety reasons, the upload function for new telegram

formats is disabled in superuser mode. Please contact Lufft if you want to install your own telegrams.

8.7.4 Status and error messages (process warnings)

The upper part of the Process Warnings tab of Figure 24

is mainly used by the Lufft service in a second or

third level support to identify problems and specific errors.

The lower section shows the automatic file distribution (AFD) information. In the activated AFD mode, the
status of the transferred files is displayed. The correct setup or errors encountered during configuration
with the AFD configuration file can be detected. The AFD Status section is only visible in activated AFD
mode.
