> LED [PROJ] is off.
> New slaves are only activated if
they have been correctly projected
before.
If the removal or adding of slaves is not
supposed to affect the AS-i system.
Changes to the projected constellation
of slaves are indicated as an error
message.
> "Slave missing" or
"Slave not projected"
If a faulty slave is replaced by a slave of
the same type (with the address 0), the
system detects the replacement, adopts
the new slave and assigns it the address
of the faulty slave.

> LED [PROJ] lights:
> New slaves are immediately
activated.
Only makes sense in case of planned
changes to the AS-i system.
In principle, changes to the slaves which are connected to the master via AS-i are immediately
detected. The [CONF/PF] LED lights as soon as there is a change compared to the projected state.
