5.2
Advice on malfunctioning and rectification of errors
Note:
See, in this connection, chapter 16 of the RS4’s Connecting and Operating Instructions
(“Error codes and their causes”), as well as chapter 9 of the Connecting and Operating
Instructions for the AS-i safety monitor (“Status messages, malfunctions and rectification of
errors”).
5.3
Extended possibilities of diagnosis by means of AS-Interface
By bringing up the parameters by means of AS-Interface you can obtain information about
the current status of the RS4 alarm output, and also about the currently active protective
field (see the RS4-4 Connecting and Operating Instructions, chapter 7.3).
Achtung!
This information is only available for purposes of diagnosis, as querying the parameters
involves a non-secure transfer of AS-i data by means of the bus. Moreover, the protective
field display will only be valid for a protective field that has been set correctly.
The 4th parameter port (P3) makes it possible to start or restart the RS4/AS-i remotely. The
conditions for a RESTART are in line with the directions given in the RS4 Connecting and
Operating Instructions, chapter 7.1.
