3.9.1 Interfaces
•
One interface for integration into a PROFIBUS fieldbus (see "The MLG-2 on the
PROFIBUS network", page 58)
•
An Ethernet interface for configuration with SOPAS ET (see "Configuration with
SOPAS ET", page 94)
•
One switching output (push-pull)
The functions of this switching output can be configured in SOPAS ET (see "Meas‐
uring and diagnostic functions for switching outputs", page 110). These functions
can also be configured using PROFIBUS.
3.9.2 Configurable functions
The functions of the MLG-2 can be configured using SOPASET or via the respective
fieldbus. The tables below show which application is used to configure each function.
