tions:

Diagnosis: Information, for example, of device status, peak value,

Start with the setup of POINTRAC 31.
In the main menu point "Setup", the individual submenu points

should be selected one after the other and provided with the correct

parameters to ensure optimum adjustment of the measurement. The

procedure is described in the following.
Stick with the normal sequence of the menu items as closely as pos-

sible.
Setup
An address must be assigned to each Profibus PA instrument. Each

address may only be assigned once in the Profibus PA network. The

sensor is only recognized by the control system if the address is set

correctly.
When the instrument is shipped, address 126 is adjusted. This ad-

dress can be used for function test of the instrument and for con-

nection to a Profibus PA network. Then address must be changed to

integrate additional instruments.
The address setting is carried out either via:

The address selection switch in the electronics compartment of

the instrument (address setting via hardware)

The display and adjustment module (address setting via software)

PACTware/DTM (address setting via software)

The hardware addressing is effective if an address <126 is set

with the address selection switches on the electronics module of
