Determining the Location of a SCALANCE X-400

To identify a SCALANCE X414-3E locally and with certainty, you can use the
"show location" function on a programming device to select the node over the net-
work and make it flash. This can be used, for example, when assigning addresses
to make sure that the correct node receives the address. All port LEDs of the ad-
dressed node flash green at 2 Hz.

With the PST Tool V3.0, you can trigger this function with Module \ Ring.
