Restart And Device Swap-Out - Siemens SIMATIC FS600 Instruction Manual

Restart and device swap-out

The SIMATIC FS600 Laser Scanner can be connected via the X1 standard plug or the
ConfigPlug with integrated configuration memory. With a restart the laser scanner starts
in every case with the configuration that was set when it went out of operation.
Thereafter a technical expert does not have to look at it, but the test in accordance with
the specifications for daily testing must be performed.
With a device swap-out, however, the procedure is different!
WARNING
If the X1 standard plug is used the configuration must be transferred with the PC to the
replacement device. All procedures and specifcations of the first start-up apply here. A
technical expert should look at the device!
If the ConfigPlug is used with integrated configuration memory, the SIMATIC FS600
Laser Scanner reads the saved configuration automatically from the ConfigPlug when
it is switched on. The ConfigPlug must be clearly identified with a nameplate and the
switch in the plug must be at the "1" (left) defalt position. During the start up with the
automatic configuration read-back, the laser scanner signals the successful transfer with
a brief flashing of the two yellow LEDs 2 and 5. In this case it does not have to be looked
at by a technical expert, but the test in accordance with the specifications for daily testing
must also be performed.
