Parameters
10 .11 Password
Parameter 77
The password is designed to protect the parameter
settings. To prevent unauthorized changes to param-
eter settings, a password is stored in parameter 77
(0000 to 9999). Changes to parameter settings can
only be made once this number has been entered. The
password can be changed using BCSoft. Note the ef-
fect of parameter settings on the safe functioning of
your system.
10 .12 Fieldbus communication
Parameter 80
Fieldbus communication can be activated using pa-
rameter 80 when bus module BCM 500 is connected.
A device name must be entered in the automation
system for the unique identification of the control unit
(BCU/FCU) in the Profinet IO system.
Parameter 80 = 0: Off. Parameterization access using
BCSoft via Ethernet is still possible.
Parameter 80 = 1: with address check. The device name
on delivery for the BCU 580 is “not-assigned-bcu-
580-xxx”. The expression “not-assigned-” must be de-
leted or may be replaced with an individual name. The
sequence xxx must be identical to the address set on
the BCM 500 using the code switches (xxx = address in
the range 001 to FEF).
Parameter 80 = 2: no address check. The device name
can be selected as specified by the automation system.
