Structure of the product manual
Application programs with different ranges of functions can be loaded in the line couple S.
For this reason, all the parameters and functions for ETS 4 and also for ETS 3 are explained in chapter 3.
Note
Different application programs are available with the line coupler S for ETS 3 and ETS 4. Some of the
functions for the ETS 4 are not available in the applications for the ETS 3, see
In ETS 3, there is a separate application for coupling and for repeating (
Couple/1.x
or
Repeat/1.x),
in
ETS 4, there is a common application (
Couple Repeat/2.x).
All applications are upwards compatible, i.e.:
•
The old applications of line coupler can be loaded in the line coupler S (ETS 3). This is particularly
useful if in an existing project an line coupler has to be replaced by an line coupler S.
•
The applications
Couple/1.x
or
Repeat/1.x
can be loaded in the line coupler S via the ETS 3 or the
ETS 4.
•
The new application
Couple Repeat/2.x
with extended functional range is only available for the
ETS 4.
