Starting up a MP master

INFORMATION

If "Terminals" is set as the control signal source and the binary input DI00 is set to "1", the MP master is enabled immediately after the line voltage is switched on.

INFORMATION

After the configuration as "MP 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 "MP master".

Information on the settings for "Sync timeout response" can be found in chapter Sync timeout response.
