Starting up a SP slave

INFORMATION

After the configuration as "SP slave", 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 start up a slave:

  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 slave".
