ECShell engineering software
Manual – ECC-DFC field bus controller
In the example that is shown, only 10 nodes have been installed,
but "12" was entered. After “Refresh” is clicked, two error messages
are displayed one after the other.
The node value in the first field can be increased or decreased by
clicking “+” and “-”. The data for the newly selected node is then
displayed. Note that increasing the value beyond the final physical
node will generate an error message.
8.4.2. Node identification
The main window of ECShell contains a function that is known as “Blink&Wink”.
This window allows you to visually verify the selected node.
If a valid node has been entered in the first field under “Node
No.” and its data is display in the main window, clicking
“Blink&Wink” will make all LED indicators of the selected
module blink. Clicking “Blink&Wink” again switches the blink-
ing off.
8.4.3. Module diagnosis window
Click the ECC-DFC icon in the top right-hand corner of the main window to open
the “Diagnosis” window and display the current status of the selected node.
