Automatic addressing of the AS-i slaves
Note
AS-i-address for automatic addressing
For automatic allocation of AS-i addresses in the EL6201, the connected AS-i slaves must
have the address "0" (not addressed).
Successive automatic allocation of addresses is not possible, if a slave is already ad-
dressed/projected.
Automatic addressing is also done via the
AS-i System Manager extension
.
• The AS-i slaves referred to above are not yet connected to the AS-i fieldbus line and have the address
"0" or come straight from the factory.
• Click on the EL6201 in the TwinCAT tree and the "Settings" tab (A). Then click on "AS-i master
EL6201" (B) to open the screen shown below.
• Ensure that the terminal is in "ASI Config Mode" (blue). If necessary, change the mode by clicking (C).
• Set "Auto Programming Mode" in the field "Control PDO" (D).

• Now click on "AS-i system Overview" (A), as shown in Fig.
Switching to "Protected mode" and
completion of project planning.
As you can see in the image below, no slave is detected/projected (B).
