NOTICE!
Any changes to the settings through the standard interface Modbus RTU, are not reflected in
the Profinet PDO’s. Please apply a
power reset
after changing the settings through the
standard interface.
Serial Interface
In addition to the PROFINET interface, the device has, as standard, a digital interface with the Modbus RTU
protocol. These can be used to set and read out various parameters using the free "get-redy" software. We
recommend that the device settings (e.g. device address) are made via this interface.
For this you need an interface cable "PDM-U" and a power supply unit "PSD".
If you do not have these accessories, please contact your sales partner.
