Auto configuration of the linear conveyor
Manual ā ECC-DFC field bus controller
INFORMATION
Note that another auto configuration request of some module or other in the
fieldbus controller that is not the auto configuration master will not start another
auto configuration procedure. The module concerned will detect that it is not the
unit that is the furthest upstream and abort the procedure. Nevertheless, the
module will carry out a local restart. This process lasts a few seconds.
7.6.2. Problem solution for failed auto configuration
The following table contains some typical indicators of error statuses and the rel-
evant measures to be taken as the solution.
Status LEDs OK with
unexpected result
Check the function of all photo sensors and whether all zones are free and repeat the
procedure.
Check all networks, motor rollers, sensors, and power connections and repeat the
procedure.
Make sure that all connections are valid. Correct invalid connections and repeat the
procedure.
The status LED is flashing
or illuminated in red at one
of more modules
Ensure that no Ethernet switches or PCs are connected between the modules of the
fieldbus controller. The auto configuration procedure is aborted if a device that is not
part of the ECC-DFC is detected along the path to the final node. Modules up to this
point are configured, but the others are not.
If a module is removed from an existing network that is already operational, wait for
at least 2 minutes so that the Ethernet switches at the remaining modules can reset
before a new auto configuration procedure is started.
