7.9 Configuring the machine for master control
7.9.1 List of the various master controllers
The machine controller is provided with several methods of working under other controllers.
Method Description Section
Master control with Profibus
(requires an additional module)
The controller (and therefore the compressor)
receives the instruction LOAD, IDLE or local
operation via the Profibus master (e.g.
SIGMA AIR MANAGER or VESIS). The system
setpoint pressures pA and pB are irrelevant for
the LOAD/IDLE signals.
7.9.2
Master control of two compressors with
SIGMA CONTROL 2 via Ethernet inter‐
face
2 The SIGMA CONTROL 2 controllers operate
as master and slave. The slave receive the
command to switch between the two system
setpoint pressures pA and pB from the master.
7.9.4
Master control via LOAD remote contact.
Master control via a LOAD remote con‐
tact is another method of controlling the
machine externally. There are 2 possibil‐
ities:
LOAD remote contact
An input signal from a superordinate controller
switches the machine to LOAD or IDLE. The
setpoint pressure settings pA and pB have no
relevance.
7.9.5
Local/LOAD remote contact:
Using two inputs, a master controller (e.g.
MVS 8000) switches the machine between
LOAD/IDLE and local operation.
