3.6 Replacing the bus node
Caution
For CPX terminals with a continuously illuminated or flash
ing “Modify” LED (M), parameterisation is not automatic
ally created by the higher-level system when the CPX ter
minal is replaced during servicing.
 Before replacement, note required settings and make
them again after replacement.
When replacing a bus node with the setting [System start with
saved parameters], the CPX terminal is not parameterised
automatically by the higher-order controller.
The bus node CPX-FB36 is compatible with the bus node
CPX-FB32:
A bus node CPX-FB32 can be replaced in existing applications
by a bus node CPX-FB36 (Revision 13 or higher) without
changing the configuration of the host system.
With the Festo Maintenance Tool (CPXFMT):
1. Before replacing the bus node, save the parameterisation
of the CPX terminal in a CPX-FMT file.
2. After replacing the bus node, transfer the parameterisa
tion to the new bus node.
