1.3.5 Monitoring the DP ports
DP port monitoring After connecting and parameterising the Modbus communication, the settings can
be saved by means of DIP switch7. If a failure of the AmaControl devices connected
to the DP ports is registered, the error status (1= error) is displayed in the "dec9734
(FC4)" register of the INT 600 DM Gateway. Alerts are issued with a delay of about
2minutes. Parallel to this message the respective seconds counters of the individual
AmaControl devices can be read out (FC4) for an additional evaluation (e.g.used as a
sign of life) (ðSection1.4.5,Page40) .
