Startup time
This time defines when the unit "boots up" after a restart (reset, reprogramming, bus voltage
recovery). This can be important if, for example, a bus reset is carried out. If there are many units
on a line, all units would start at the same time and load the bus. With a variable time, the units can
thus start differently.
„Operation“
"In operation" is used to show on the bus that the unit is "alive". If activated, an ON telegram is sent
cyclically.
Send object “Alarm ON/OFF”
The setting "not active, only request" means that the alarm is not actively sent but can be
requested externally via the object.
"On change" means that the alarm is actively sent on the bus whenever there is a change from ON
to OFF or vice versa.
The "cyclic" setting can be used to set the intervals at which the current alarm status is to be sent.
It is also sent if the status has not changed.
With the selection "on change and cyclic", both settings are reacted to accordingly.
Behaviour at alarm end
This parameter can be used to set whether a triggered alarm is either reset automatically (if "Alarm
OFF") or whether it can only be reset via an object - regardless of whether the alarm has already
ended. Only if "Reset via object" is selected an appropriate object becomes visible. The alarm is
reset by sending a "1".
Delay of message „Alarm ON“ / „Alarm OFF“
An individual delay time for the messages can be set here.
A delay for "Alarm OFF" can only be set with the setting "reset automatically". With "reset via
object", the reset takes place directly via object and without delay.
