Schmalz VSi Series User Manual

FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
30.30.01.00956/01 www.schmalz.com EN | 35
7.9.2 User-specific localization
The following parameters are available when saving user-specific information in every individual copy
of the VSi switch.
 Identification of the installation location
 Identification of the storage location
 Identification of the device tags on the circuit diagram
 Installation date
 Geo-location
 Web link to the relevant IODD
The mentioned parameters are ASCII character strings with the maximum length
given in the data dictionary. They can also be used for other purposes if necessary.
The “NFC web link” parameter is a special feature. This parameter must include a valid web address
beginning with http:// or https:// and is automatically used as a web address for NFC read accesses.
As a result, read accesses from smart phones or tablets are rerouted e.g. to an address in the
company's own intranet or a local server.
7.10 System monitoring and diagnostics
7.10.1 Minimum and maximum values
The maximum and minimum pressure/vacuum and operating voltage values that were measured since
the last switch-on are logged by the switch and can be queried.
The maximum and minimum values can be reset via IO-link or NFC during operation using the
appropriate system commands. This is also possible for pressure/vacuum via the operating menu
under EF/rHL.
7.10.2 Counters
The switch has two internal, non-erasable cc1 and cc2 counters as well as two erasable ct1 and ct2
counters. These counters count the positive switching ramps of the switching points 1 and 2:

Description
cc1
Counter 1
Counter position, switching ramp SP1 (non-erasable):
cc2
Counter 2
Counter position, switching ramp SP2 (non-erasable):
ct1
Counter 3
Counter position, switching ramp SP1 (erasable):
ct2
Counter 4
Counter position, switching ramp SP2 (erasable):
The erasable ct1 and ct2 counters can be reset to 0 during operation via IO-link or NFC using the
appropriate system commands. This is also possible in the operating menu via the EF/rct menu item.
The non-volatile storage of the counter statuses only occurs every 500 steps. That
means that when the operating voltage is switched off, up to 499 steps of the
counter are lost.
