Fieldbus configuration

DESCRIPTION During start-up, the fieldbus interface is initialized to fit the configuration created in the EnerVista P485/D485 Setup software. Since EnerVista P485/D485 Setup supports both the P485 and D485 converters, the user must verify that the 'Fieldbus' parameter indicates the correct converter. Additionally, it is possible for advanced users to customize the network interface inside the converter to meet specific application demands (see Advanced fieldbus configuration on page 8–5for details).
