4. There is also the option of addressing the device using its host name. In its factory default state, the host name con-
sists of a combination of the device derivative designation and the serial number, as shown below:

Starting up a plant segment
The following figure provides an example of the structure of a plant segment consisting of a Segment Controller
and a certain number of KACO devices with string combiner (SC) combinations.

Start-up via Segment Controller
Area of application
The network infrastructure already exists. All of the KACO devices in the segment can be reached via Ethernet
using a Segment Controller.
NOTE: When multiple Segment Controllers are present, keep in mind that the Segment Control-
lers must not be connected to one another via the network during start-up.
7
Once start-up is complete (assignment of devices to the individual Segment Controllers), these can be connec-
ted to the network by pressing a
Main network switch
.
Required components
– Notebook with Ethernet interface and pre-prepared start-up configuration file
– Segment Controller
Procedure
1. Connect the notebook to the Segment Controller via Ethernet (or to a switch that provides access to the
Segment Controller).
2. Upload a pre-prepared device configuration (e.g. a device configuration that has been set up successfully
on a single device).
3. Using the Segment Controller's WEB server, it is then possible to display and select all of the connected
devices on the Segment Controller that should have this configuration.
6
If the device serial number features a “.” dot, then this “.” dot is replaced with a “-” dash in the host name as,
according to RFC229, host names must not contain any “.” dots.
For local host names, only characters in the range [a-z], [A-Z] and the minus character are permitted.
7
Note: Otherwise all inverters would be visible for the respective Segment Controller.
