Parameter assignment and operation of the device

8.2Operation and parameter assignment

8.2.1One-button operation with the MODE button

The MODE button enables restricted operation and important parameters to be read out directly on the device. This mainly involves the network settings required to commission the device.

There are three different operational actions for the MODE button:

Short button press

A definite button press, but for less than 3 seconds.

 

As a rule, a short button press is used to "turn the page". An action

 

that can be executed by a short button press is indicated by a short

 

arrow pointing to the right in the top right-hand corner of the

 

display.

 

See examples 1 to 4.

Long button press:

A definite button press for longer than 3 seconds.

 

The action addressed by the long button press is executed after

 

this time has elapsed. As a rule, a long button press is used to

 

"accept" a setting. An action that can be executed by a long button

 

press is indicated by a long arrow pointing to the right in the bottom

 

right-hand corner of the display.

 

See examples 1 to 4.

No button press::

If there is no button press for 45 seconds, the operating level is

 

exited automatically.

 

See example 4.

Example 1:

IP address -> 192.168.001.011 -->

Figure 8-5 Example 1 of one-button operation

The display shows the readout of the currently set IP address. A short button press "turns the page" to readout the next parameter. A long button press can accept the parameter "IP address" in a programming mode.
