7.3.2 Operating modes in the transfer mode Tx (From PLC)
Slave (PLC writes) — PLC sends digital output data to the UE410-EN3
In this operating mode the PLC sends writing requirements as master to the UE410-EN3 in
order to set the digital outputs. If this operating mode is desired:
 Chose the operating mode Slave (PLC Writes) in the Tx (From PLC) Transfer Mode
selection field. All the further settings do not apply.
 Activate Save in Flash and click Submit to save the selection.
Only if Save in Flash is checked, will the new configuration be stored in the UE410-EN3’s
non-volatile memory and be available after a restart of the gateway. Submit without
checking Save in Flash allows, for example, the testing of new configurations without
overwriting the old configuration.
