Communication module for external archiving
A module slot is integrated into the back of the machine for a Miele
communication module for permanent archiving of cycle reports. The
module enables the installation of an Ethernet interface for documen-
tation using documentation software or an RS-232 interface for con-
nection to a report printer.
Please contact Miele for further information on software and suitable
printers.
Only use devices (computers, printers, etc.) which comply with EN/
IEC 60950.
The communication modules are available from Miele as an acces-
sory and can be retrofitted at any time. The modules are supplied
with their own installation instructions.
The interface must be configured only by a qualified and competent
person. Follow the instructions in “Additional settings/Interface”.
Process documentation using external software
For digital archiving, the process data is transmitted to external docu-
mentation software via an Ethernet interface. Transmission can op-
tionally occur continuously during the process or as a single packet
at the end of the process. The settings for this are modified by Miele
Service.
Information on wash pressure, conductivity and temperature in the
wash cabinet can be archived graphically if required.
Installation of an Ethernet interface requires the retrospective fitting of
an XKM 3000 L Med communication module.
For connection to a WLAN network, the module can be connected via
a power cord to an existing wireless access point.
Problems with
data transmission
If there is a network problem during a running process, e.g. due to a
loose cable, a relevant fault message is displayed.
Network down
The process running will be continued without interruption and the
process data will be saved in the meantime in the internal memory.
In the event of network or to report software problems, contact your
system or network administrator.
