8.6.11 AS-Interface commissioning
Due to the increasing number of compatible ASi 2.11 master controllers it would be impractical
to create detailed instructions for commissioning the Norgren node on a particular master. All
Norgren AS-Interface products are conformance tested to the latest specification by an
independent authorised test site and are fully certified by the AS-Interface international group.
Because of this, the help guide and manual supplied with the users chosen PLC should be used
during the commissioning stages of each Norgren node.
8.6.12 AS-Interface valve island expansion
The modular design of the VS18/VS26 valve islands allows easy modifications to the number of
valves while in the field. The AS-Interface system allows a single station expansion according to
the indicated configurations (see section
8.6.5 and 8.6.7 ). Fore more information please refer to
section 9 .
The VS18/VS26 AS-Interface valve islands may have to be reconfigured after expansion to
accept the new number of valves and correct allocation of the output bits. This is controlled by
the DIP switch on the Fieldbus PCB (see section
8.6.4 and 8.6.6 ).
