SmartWire-DT configuration
The EU5C-SWD-SERCOS Gateway is easily commissioned by an
automated configuration function: On pushing the configuration button on
the front of the gateway, the gateway scans the current SmartWire-DT
network configuration, the so-called actual configuration. It then stores the
actual configuration as target configuration zero voltage-safe in the device,
thus making the target configuration available for a comparison of actual
and targeted SmartWire-DT configuration, which takes place each time the
gateway is being switched on.
When the gateway is switched on after a target configuration has already
been stored, the gateway automatically rescans the connected actual
configuration and checks it against the target configuration. If the gateway
recognizes that a required SmartWire-DT slave cannot be reached or a
wrong slave type is determined, it will not go into operation. If the actual
configuration complies with the target configuration, the gateway gets ready
for Sercos and waits for the Sercos configuration. The gateway checks the
project configuration, which it receives from the Sercos master, against the
target configuration. Discrepancies between target and project
configuration are indicated by the
Config
LED of the gateway.
Eaton SWD-Assist planning software
Despite the fact that you can configure the SmartWire-DT network in the
gateway simply by using the configuration button, it is nevertheless
recommended to use the SWD-Assist software to plan, dimension and
document the SmartWire-DT network.
For further information, please refer to the SWD-Assist online help.
