4.4. Device parameters
4.4.1. How to open the housing (partial pull-out)
Setting the user address requires partial opening of the gateway housing. Please use a small screw-
driver, press-in the snap-locks provided at the top and bottom behind the screw terminals and pull out
the housing halfway until stop so that the operating elements are accessible. The housing is closed
again by pulling it back to its original position until both locks snap in again.
4.4.2. Setting the Profibus user address
The Profibus-user address is set decimally within the range from 00 to 99 using two BCD rotary switches. Please
consider that the lower addresses are often reserved to the Profibus master, reason why an address of 0, 1 or is
not recommended. Default setting is 00.
The illustration shows the address switch in position „42“, the decimal digit at the left, the unit digit at
the right.
4.4.3. Setting the Profibus bus termination
The gateway provides a two-pole DIP switch for bus termination. Both switches have always to be
pushed together. The bus terminator will be active if both DIP switches are in „ON“ position. Default
setting is OFF.
