Allocating the SITOP PSU8600 a device name (online)
In order that the configured IO controller can address the SITOP PSU8600, you must assign
the configured device names to each of the individual IO devices (including the
SITOP PSU8600).
For the procedure described below, the SITOP PSU8600 and the station for the PG/PC must
be accessible online on the Ethernet.
1.
Open "HW Config".
2. In the "Target system > Ethernet" menu, click on "Assign device name".
3. In the "Assign device name" dialog, in the "Device name" field, select SITOP PSU8600.
4. In the "Available devices" select the SITOP PSU8600. Using the "Flash" button, you can
flash the LED on the SITOP PSU8600 so that the device can be uniquely identified.
5. Click on the "Assign name" button.
After the name assignment, you can bring the IO controller into the RUN operating state.
When powering up, the IO controller distributes the configuration information to the
SITOP PSU8600 and then goes into cyclic operation.
