9 Starting up the device – webConfig tool
With the Leuze webConfig tool, a web-technology based, graphical user interface is available for configur-
ing the BPS.
The webConfig tool can be run on any Internet-ready PC. The webConfig tool uses HTTP as communica-
tion protocol and the client-side restriction to standard technologies (HTML, JavaScript and AJAX) that are
supported by modern browsers.
NOTICE
The webConfig tool is offered in the following languages:
German, English, French, Italian, Spanish
NOTICE
Configuration changes via the webConfig tool have no effect in PROFINET!
Ä Always perform the basic configuration using the GSDML file (see chapter 8 "Starting up
the device – Basic configuration").In process operation, only the parameters in the
PROFINET modules set via the GSDML file or the PROFINET default presets are in effect.
Parameter changes made via the webConfig tool are no longer in effect on the PROFINET.
The parameters for the time behavior of the switching inputs/outputs can only be adjusted
with the webConfig tool.
If you switch the BPS to the Service operating mode via the webConfig tool, the BPS is dis-
connected from the PROFINET. All parameters set via the GSDML file initially remain in ef-
fect. Parameter changes can now be made via the webConfig tool for test purposes. Set-
tings configured with the webConfig tool are overwritten by the PROFINET master with the
settings made via the GSDML file upon connection to PROFINET or after deactivation of the
Service operating mode. Settings that cannot be configured via PROFINET, e.g., time be-
havior functions, are not overwritten.
NOTICE
BPS configuration via webConfig tool
Ä The webConfig tool displays no PROFINET parameters.
Ä The configuration data is saved in the device and in the connection hood.

once on your PC. Administrator rights are required for driver installation.
NOTICE

not need to be installed again.
