Operation mode

Select at network configuration the operation mode of
the TH LINK.

In the operation mode Passive PROFIBUS station the
TH LINK is a passive station in the bus. Therefore the TH LINK
needs no own PROFIBUS address.

In the operation mode Active/Passive PROFIBUS station
the TH LINK can be used as a class 2 master in connection with
an external master application (FDT or Emerson's AMS Suite).

The TH LINK is passive until a PROFIBUS address is set in the
master application and the communication is started. Then the
TH LINK is an active station.
