Sequence for the HT8

Procedure:

1. Connect HT8 to a connection module and calibrate the touch screen.

Additional softkeys are available for convenient touch panel operation:

– "OK" has the same e󹪜ect as the <INPUT> key

– Select "DEF" to save the "Default" settings.

– "Edit" has the same e󹪜ect as the <F10> or <MENU SELECT> key.

2. Select HT8 Individual Mode:

According to the default setting for an HT 8, "HT 8 Individual Mode" is deselected with "No".

This means "Auto" mode is activated for automatic detection in the system network. The HT

8 is automatically detected based on its name "DIP_". If "HT8 Individual Mode" is activated

with "Yes", the HT8 is identi󹪝ed by its MAC address on the system network.

3. For an HT 8, con󹪝rm the "DIP..." name proposed by the system or adapt the name. You can

select any other characters.

Press the <INPUT> key to apply the following values as default settings for the HT 8:

HT8 Individual Mode

Operator panel index - TCU [0-255]

Machine control panel address - MCP [0-255]

Electronic key system index - EKS [0-255]

Enable direct keys

The following message will then appear: "New TCU 'DIP10' registered."

Note

The TCU index is used to evaluate the direct keys. Direct keys can only be activated by

appropriate devices. For an HT 8 the TCU index cannot be set, but is assigned by the system.

Activate direct keys

The signals from pressing the direct keys are sent directly to the PLC. In the PLC, the keys appear

as 16 digital inputs.

Additional information on programming the PLC is provided in:

De󹪝nition: Operator panel

The term operator panel designates a unit that consists of an OP/TP, a TCU or PCU and a machine

control panel (MCP), that are connected to each other via Ethernet.

All TCUs and PCU 50 can be used along with OP/TP with "integrated TCU", e.g.: OP08T,

OP015T, TP015AT.
