Selector switch
Function
Upper position
The Linux coupler is started with a Linux console on the
serial interface (38400-8-N-1- NoFlowControl).
Middle position
WAGO program IO update is supported.
Lower position
Linux coupler starts Bootstrap Loader (BSL).
Pressed down
(e.g. using a screwdriver)
Hardware reset
The boot loader analyzes the position of the selector switch, changes the Linux
kernel start parameters and adds or deletes the
wago_console=yes
parameter.
The serial interface driver and the boot code in the
/etc/startwago
file evaluate
the start parameter. In the
/etc/startwago
file it will be decided whether or not
to start the
/bin/io-check
or the
/bin/getty
program.
