7.4.3.7 Cloning upload
Table 98: Cloning upload
Index Access Data type Description
76h R/W BOOL This parameter is used to save the parameters
of the MLG-2 to the fieldbus module.
0 = parameters are not saved
1 = parameters are saved
A change from 0 to 1 always initiates a save
of the parameters to the fieldbus module. If
the parameters are to be saved to the fieldbus
module again, this index must first be descri‐
bed using 0.
The “Cloning upload” function writes the parameter set configured to the fieldbus
module. Following device replacement, the parameters can be loaded back into the
light grid from the fieldbus module using the “Cloning download” function.
7.4.3.8 Cloning download
Table 99: Cloning download
Index Access Data type Description
77h R/W BOOL This parameter is used to load the parameters
saved in the fieldbus module into the MLG-2.
0 = parameters are not loaded
1 = parameters are loaded
A change from 0 to 1 always initiates a load‐
ing of the parameters into the MLG-2. If the
parameters are to be loaded into the MLG-2
again, this index must first be described using
0.
NOTE
The MLG-2 restarts after the download. Existing bus connections or connections with
SOPAS ET are interrupted briefly.
Any initial configurations for starting up the MLG-2 which have been set in the control
overwrite the values that the cloning download has restored.
7.4.3.9 Cloning status
Table 100: Cloning status
Index Access Data type Description
78h R ENUM8 This parameter is used to read the status of
the “Cloning” function.
0 = LOCKED
1 = EMPTY
2 = VALID
3 = ACTIVE
The cloning status shows the status of the stored parameters in the fieldbus module
•
LOCKED: Uploading and downloading not possible.
•
EMPTY: No valid set of parameters available.
Uploading parameters is the only option.
•
VALID: A valid set of parameters is available in the fieldbus module.
Parameters can be uploaded or downloaded.
•
ACTIVE: An upload or download is currently active.
