With this menu command, you can establish a connection to a different CP
you want to check without having to quit and restart the diagnostic tool. The
current diagnostic connection is closed.
If you want to use more than one diagnostic connection at the same time,
you can start NCM S7 diagnostics more than once.
Operating Mode " You can control the CP as follows:
Stop a module Stops the CP.
Start a module Starts the CP if the RUN/STOP switch is set to RUN.
Reset module memory With certain CP types, for example the CP 443-5 Basic, you can reset the
CP memory. This function must be confirmed before it is executed.
Following this memory reset, the CP retains the preset MAC address and
the retentive parameters. The CP is therefore immediately ready for
downloads using the IP address.
The retentive parameters include:
S
IP address and IP parameters
S
A newly set MAC address
S
LAN settings
Resetting to factory
settings With some modules, it is possible to reset to the factory settings. The

deleted. After this, the module retains only the factory-set MAC address (as
shipped).
