Application
The C-PLUG is an exchangeable medium for storage of the configuration data of the
modular switch and ships with the product. This means that the configuration data remains
available if the basic device is replaced.
Note
The C-PLUG must only be removed or inserted when the power supply to the device is
turned off.
How it works
Power is supplied by the end device. The C-PLUG retains all data permanently when the
power is turned off.
If an empty C-PLUG (factory settings or deleted with the Clean function) is inserted, all the
configuration data of an IE switch is saved to it automatically when the device starts up.
Changes to the configuration during operation are saved on the C-PLUG without operator
intervention if this is in the
ACCEPTED
status.
