Starting up a SP master

INFORMATION

If the control signal source of the SP master is set to "Terminals", all supply units of the network are enabled after the line voltage is switched on.

INFORMATION

After the configuration as "SP master", the fault message "68.11 synchronization lost, sync signal invalid" may occur in other synchronization stations. Reset this fault with a manual reset in the "Setup" window or with the process data control word.

Proceed as follows if you would like to put the master into operation:

  1. Select the "Synchronization" node in the parameter tree.
  2. Set the "Interface function" setting to "Sync".
  3. Under "Sync mode", select the setting "SP master".
