1.8 C-PLUG (Configuration Plug)
Area of Application
The C-PLUG (order number: 6GK1 900-0AB00) is an optional exchangeable
medium for saving the configuration and project engineering data of the basic
device (IE/AS-i LINK) and the AS-i slaves.
When powered down, the C-PLUG retains all data permanently. This means that
configuration data remains available when a basic device is replaced (module
replacement without PG is therefore possible).
The C-PLUG is accessible from the top of the housing.
The IE/AS-i LINK has internal memory for permanent storage of the configuration
data of the basic device and the AS-i slaves. Replacing a module without a PG is,
however, possible only with the C-PLUG.
Inserting in the C-PLUG Slot
The slot for the C-PLUG is on the top panel of the device.
To insert the C-PLUG, the cover of the receptacle must be removed. The C-PLUG
is inserted in the receptacle. The cover must then be replaced over the receptacle
and closed correctly.
Notice
The C-PLUG may only be inserted or removed when the power is off!
