When PN/M-Bus LINK starts up after the power supply is switched on, the process continues 
as follows: 
1.  The three LEDs light up briefly for about 1 second and then go dark again. 
2.  None of the LEDs light up for about 4 seconds. 
3.  The RUN LED starts flashing. 
4.  Once the startup of PN/M-Bus link has been successfully completed and the connection 
with the S7 controller has been established, the RUN LED lights up.
