Festo – GDCP-CMMO-ST-EA-SY-EN – 1301a – English

After making changes to the network configuration of the CMMO-ST, it will need to be

restarted in order for the changes to take effect.

5.2.3

Safety in the network

Caution

When connecting the CMMO-ST to existing networks (e.g. the Internet): any unauthor-

ised or accidental access to the CMMO-ST could result in unforeseeable behaviour.

Only use the CMMO-ST in subnets that are protected from external unauthorised

access, e.g. by using network security components (special

gateways/firewalls).

Use a password if you want to prevent accidental access to the CMMO-ST (in FCT: menu

option “Component” / Online / Password).

5.2.4

Timeout

The CMMO-ST detects if the connection to the FCT software has been interrupted and it behaves in

accordance with the settings parameterised in FCT under “Error management” (error number 0x32).

The timeout period is typically 1 s, but it can be longer in slow networks, as the timeout period is

dynamically adapted to the transmission rate.

Caution

The CMMO-ST cannot detect if the connection to the web browser has been interrupted.

Movements that have been started via the web browser can

no longer be stopped by

using the web browser if the Ethernet connection is interrupted during the movement.

Only use the web browser if you are sure that accidental movements will not result in

any damage.
