9.2 Device replacement
9.2.1 Notes on device replacement
The device is connected to its peripherals with plug connectors that allow for quick
device replacement. Hardware and software support the easy replacement of a de-
fective device. The ID module connected to X4401 plays a central role in this.
This is where all the settings regarding the access to the central data server are saved
during startup. After a device replacement, the device can use the information from
the ID module to log-on to the system controller and request a valid data set.
INFORMATION
Observe the following notes during device replacement:
• Insert the ID module only when the device is switched off.
• All network-specific data, e.g. the IP address of the controller, is stored in the ID
module. This allows for quick and easy replacement of devices without having to
set all parameters anew. However, specific startup steps, such as referencing,
must be carried out again.
