NETLink PRO ETH

To simplify configuration, the ‘
Automatic transmission rate detection
’
function can be deselected in the station-related settings.
This causes the NETLink PRO ETH with the preset station address to
ascertain the baudrate and associated bus parameters itself.
If this function is required, no manual setting of the network-related
parameters is possible.
Use of the autobaud function does not impair the functionality, but
initialization of a connection takes longer because the online parameters
have to be ascertained.
Some older Siemens CPUs do not support the autobaud function on the MPI.
Also PPI systems are usually not able to support autobaud functionality.
It is also possible that the autobaud function may not function reliably at
transmission rates slower than or equal to 19.2 Kbps or with increased use of
communication via global data exchange, because the relevant telegram is
