4.6.4 Parameterisation of the CPX terminal
The CPX terminal is supplied from the factory with preset parameters. If required, you can set the reaction
of the CPX terminal as well as the reaction of individual modules and channels through parameterisation.
A distinction is made between the following parameters:
– System parameters, e.g. switching off fault messages, setting reaction times, etc.
– Trace parameters
– Module parameters (module and channel-specific), e.g. monitors, settings in the event of faults,
settings for forcing.
Detailed information about the module parameters can be found in the user documentation for the
respective modules.
The following parameterisation options are available:
Parameterisation via: Description Properties
Module configuration in
Codesys (offline)
Access to all parameters
of the CPX terminal
( section CPX system
settings
section Parameterising
a CPX module)
– Convenient parameterisation via PC
– Parameter settings are stored in the
project, i.e. the parameters are retained
after the power is turned off and
restored
Handheld CPX-MMI Parameterisation is carried
out via menu-listed entries
with the handheld
( section Parameterising
the CPX terminals via the
handheld CPX-MMI)
– The parameter settings are only saved
locally in the CPX terminal and are lost
when the power is turned off and
restored
