KS2000 Configuration software
Commissioning
The KS2000 software facilitates commissioning of machine components or their fieldbus stations: Configured
settings can be transferred to the fieldbus modules by means of a download. After a login to the terminal
station, it is possible to define settings in couplers, terminals and Fieldbus Box modules directly online. The
same high­level dialogs and register access are available for this purpose as in the configuration phase.
The KS2000 offers access to the process images of the bus couplers and Fieldbus Box modules.
• Thus, the coupler's input and output images can be observed by monitoring.
• Process values can be specified in the output image for commissioning of the output modules.
All possibilities in the online mode can be used in parallel with the actual fieldbus mode of the terminal
station. The fieldbus protocol always has the higher priority in this case.
4.2 Parameterization with KS2000
Connect the configuration interface of your Fieldbus Coupler with the serial interface of your PC via the
configuration cable and start the KS2000 configuration software.
Click on the Login button. The configuration software will now load the information for the connected
fieldbus station. In the example shown, this is
• a BK9000: Bus Coupler for Ethernet
• a KL1xx2: Digital Input Terminal
• a KL3681: Multimeter Terminal
• a KL9010: Bus End Terminal
