8.4.  Changing existing device settings (Parameterization) 
There are various types of parameter sets in the enSuite database (see online help for more 
information). This information for general use only refers mainly to editing the default parameter 
set.  
 
On delivery, the device will always have a default parameter set  
(called device parameter set or device parmererization).  
This only must be adjusted if necessary. 
 
The following table outlines the differences between offline and online parameterization the most 
two kinds of changing parameterization you can use: 
Editing the device parameterization without 
being connected to the device. The 
parameterization is transferred to the device in 
a second step. 
Changing of parameter contents during an 
existing data connection to the device. 
The options available for editing the 
parameterization are in principle available. 
Whether a parameterization can be accepted 
or not after installation is decided by the 
device whilst taking into account the access 
rights of the logged in user and the condition 
of the security switch. 
It is necessary to log in to the device in order to 
start editing. Only changes that the logged in 
user is allowed to make are possible. In 
addition, the condition of the security switch is 
also taken into account. 
The edited device parameterization must be 
saved in the enSuite database prior to being 
transferred. 
The saving of the edited parameterization as a 
device parameterization in enSuite is optional. 
Changes of the AFB configuration possible. 
No changes of the AFB configuration possible. 
In addition to changing parameter content, 
changes of the parameter structure are also 
possible (e.g. by activating functionalities or 
adding process boards). 
Only the content of parameters which already 
exist may be changed. 
Restarting the device after installing the 
parameterization. 
No restarting the device.
