Configuration
8.4.2
Connection of the Configuration & Diagnostic Software
You can connect the Configuration & Diagnostic Software (CDS) to the bus node in
different ways and/or to the devices connected to the bus node with safe SICK device
communication.
Connection of the CDS
Limitation
Suitable for
Directly to the configuration
connection (RS
D
232) of the
UE4155
Access to the bus node and
to devices on the SDL
connection that have safe
SICK device communication
Offline commissioning or if
the configuration is to be
made spacially close to the
system.
Configuration of the
PROFIBUS address
On the configuration
connection of a device with
safe SICK device
communication, which is
linked to the SDL
connection
Access to the field-signal
connections and only to the
SDL connection, via which
the CDS is connected to the
bus node, as well as to all
the devices linked to this
connection
If on-site commissioning is
required for the configura-
tion and the device cannot
be viewed from the bus
node, as, for example,
teaching in the protective
field of a safety laser
scanner
Via the PROFIBUS acyclic
channel as a master class-2
tool
Access to bus node and
devices with safe SICK
device communication on
the SDL connection.
No configuration of the
PROFIBUS address
Remote bus-node configura-
tion and monitoring. Confi-
guration of replacement
devices
Take organisational measures for protection during the configuration!
During the configuration, ensure that no dangerous states may occur in the system or in
that part of the system which is being monitored by the devices connected to the bus
node.
The bus node only transmits failsafe values during the configuration, i.e. it sets all the bits
in the process image to 0. Furthermore, the status bit
FV_active
(failsafe value) of the
PROFIsafe telegram is also set.
Configuration via the bus-node configuration connection
To configure the bus node, you need:
CDS (Configuration & Diagnostic Software) on CD
D
ROM
user manual for CDS on CD
D
ROM
PC/Notebook/Siemens programming device (PG) with Windows NT 4/2000
Professional/XP/Vista and a serial interface (RS
D
232). PC/Notebook/PG not included.
connecting cable for the connection between PC and UE4155 (SICK-part no. 6021195)
Before configuring the device, please read the user manual for the CDS (Configuration &
Diagnostic Software) and use the online help function of the program.
5)
The access to the bus node via the SDL interface is not possible if the CDS is connected to a C4000 sender.
