5.1.3.2 Topology
The settings for the topology reside in the directory tree under
SICAM CMIC | Master module | Topology.
Here is defined via which interface which remote stations are accessible, and which basical
data flow direction is needed to these remote stations (control direction, monitor direction or
both directions).
For the parameterization of remote stations you can insert lines with the button .
With activation of the checkbox Show all parameters the complete parameter block can be
made visible (the hidden expert parameters serve for special applications and need not to be
used in normal case).
5.1.3.3 Failure Behavior upon Fault
The setting for the failure behavior resides in the directory tree under
SICAM CMIC | Master module | BSE common settings.
The occurance of a heavy fault can lead to an undefined state in the processing of the firm-
ware on the master control element. Normally the target device stops thereby the firmware
and records an error in the diagnosis.
You can change this behavior with the parameter Failure behavior.
The setting Restart firmware means that the firmware of the target device performs an au-
tomatic startup in case of error. This might be advantageous upon a temporary error that dis-
appears by itself.
You find further information thereto in the manual SICAM RTUs Common Functions System
and Basic System Elements, chapter "System Services", section "Operating States", "Firm-
ware Shut Down".
