Set up the appropriate printer using the Print Setup menu. Select Print to receive
a printout of the configuration.
3.1.13 Saving the Configuration
Choose Save to save the configuration if the configuration has already been
saved with a filename, otherwise, use the Save as function to assign the
configuration a filename.
3.1.14 Downloading the Configuration
To enable the configuration and network access, the configuration must be
downloaded to the master. Choose Online, then Download from the menu. This
triggers a warning that the communication on the PROFIBUS will be interrupted.
This has to be confirmed.
Before the download is accomplished, the configurator checks the configuration.
If any error messages appear, the configuration should be checked. The most
common errors are overlapped addresses, which can be located by viewing the
Address Table overview.
If slave addressing is performed automatically, chose Auto addressing from the
Master Configuration window.
The configuration is transmitted to the selected device and stored into FLASH
memory statically. This enables it to be available after the power is switched off
and on in the device.
