Commander S100 User Guide
5.1.2 Using Marshal
Once the user has connected to a drive or opened a configuration, Marshal will display the drive dashboard. The dashboard holds the tools required
to commission the drive and provides diagnostic information.
Figure 5-2 Marshal dashboard
FastStart is the primary setup wizard, but more advanced commissioning can be done through the individual tools such as
PID
or
Advanced Motor
Control
.
NFC is not a live connection, so changes made to any drive parameters in Marshal
need to be written to the drive in order to take effect. The FastStart
commission wizard will prompt the user when this is appropriate, but this can also be done at any time by selecting "Write to Drive" in the dashboard
menu.

5.1.3 Saving parameters in Marshal
When parameter settings are changed in Marshal, the new parameter set needs to be written to the drive and the drive will save these parameter
changes automatically.
To save a configuration for later, click "Save" or "Save As" in the dashboard menu.
5.1.4 Marshal security
To prevent unauthorized parameter changes, a PIN can be set in
Security PIN
(P4.02). This can be changed in Marshal via the drive properties tab
that can be accessed by clicking the lock icon at the top of the dashboard or the drive properties symbol in the dashboard menu. Once set, the PIN
must be entered before any parameter is accessed on the keypad or before attempting to read or write drive settings in Marshal. In Marshal, the PIN
only has to be entered once unless the user closes the project or if the password is changed.
Communications via NFC can be limited or disabled entirely according to the value set in
Near Field Communication
(P4.20). If set to 0, NFC
communications are blocked. If set to 1, drive parameters can only be read. The default setting of 2 enables full read/write access with NFC when the
drive is both unpowered and powered.
