Configuration
This chapter systematically describes the necessary steps for configuring the UE4155 bus
node and its integration into the application.
8.1
Delivery status
In its delivery status the bus node is configured as follows:
field-signal connections:
– selection:
Single-channel
– output:
Static off
– safety input:
Off
– input delay:
Inactive
– discrepancy time:
Inactive
SDL connections:
– no device expected
– read hardware OSSD: both
Inactive
PROFIBUS:
– PROFIBUS address:
0
(on the PROFIBUS address switch of the bus node)
– PROFIsafe address:
0
8.2
Overview
Reserve an adequate amount of time for the planning and integration and for the configu-
ration of the bus node. Consider that you may endanger people’s lives if you make an error
in the planning and configuration.
The following requirements must be met before the bus node can be configured:
The application must have already been fully planned. The planning must contain,
among other things:
– a detailed safety analysis of the planned application
– a full setup of all requisite devices, their connections and the signals supplied by or
required by these devices
The bus node must be connected to the power supply (see chapter 5.1 “Power supply
(7/8"-connection)” on page 28).
The safety components must be electrically connected to the bus node. Read chapter 5
“Electrical installation” on page 27 to this end as well as the corresponding chapters of
the operating instructions of the devices that you wish to connect to the bus node.
There are five main steps to the subsequent configuration of the UE4155 bus node, which
will be described in the following chapters:
PROFIBUS configuration of the bus node, if this has not already been carried out
Restore the configuration connection to the bus node
Configuration of devices connected to the bus node
Configuration of the bus-node inputs and outputs
Setting the PROFIsafe address
When these steps are complete, the system is in principle ready for operation. However, it
is necessary to program the FPLC before operation can commence. This step should start
