Activating the configuration state of the MOVI-C® CONTROLLER

The MOVI‑C® CONTROLLER must be in configuration state to configure further SBusPLUS stations.

The following applies to configuration state:

  • You can add further SBusPLUS stations to the network.
  • Parameter setting, diagnostics and engineering functions are possible for the auxiliary axes.
  • The exchange of process data with the MOVI‑C® CONTROLLER is disabled.

A device notification is displayed for the module to indicate whether the MOVI‑C® CONTROLLER is in configuration state.

In the following cases, the MOVI‑C® CONTROLLER is already in configuration state:

  • When the network is used for the first time
  • After a MOVI‑C® CONTROLLER restart if a boot project has not yet been created

In all other cases the MOVI‑C® CONTROLLER must first enter configuration state.

Proceed as follows:

  • The system is free from faults.
  • Master and slaves are in "operational" ESM state.
  1. In MOVISUITE®, open the context menu of the MOVI‑C® CONTROLLER with a right mouse click.
  2. Select "Activate configuration state".
    • The safety prompt appears.
  3. Confirm the safety prompt to inhibit the drives of the output stage and to activate configuration state.
    • The window for changing to configuration state opens.
    • The confirmation message is displayed.
  4. Confirm the message.
  • The network now is in configuration state. You can add further SBusPLUS stations to the network and set the parameters for auxiliary axes.
