Protected Mode
If the IE/AS-i LINK is in protected mode, it only exchanges data with slaves that
are “configured”. In this sense, “configured” means that the slave addresses stored
on the IE/AS-i LINK and the configuration data match the values of the existing
AS-i slaves.
You enable protected mode by downloading the configuration from the PG to the
Link module (HW Config > Download to Module...) or with the three options
mentioned in the previous section “Configuration Mode”.
