6.5 Identification and configuration
6.5.1 Identification
6.5.1.1 Central unit
"Central unit" view
The "Identification" > "Central unit" view contains an overview of the device-specific
information. The contents are not part of the plant documentation. You can read from the file
using the "Switching device" > "Open" menu command or from the central unit using the
"Switching device" > "Open online" command.
Note
When you create a new safety relay, the information that is still missing is blank.
If no central unit is configured, all the fields are gray in offline mode.
If a central unit is configured, the contents are partially available in the offline mode. They
are all available in online mode.
