5.3.2 Procedure for commissioning with the Festo Configuration Tool
Starting the FCT
Carry out the following steps in order to commission the
MTR-DCI with the FCT:
1. Connect the MTR-DCI to your PC via the RS232 interface.
Note here the instructions in chapter 3.4.
2. Starting the FCT: Double-click on the Festo Configuration
Tool icon on the desktop.
– or –
switch to Windows and select the entry [Festo Software]
[Festo Configuration Tool] in the menu [Start].
3. Create a project in the FCT or open an existing project.
Add a device to the project with the PlugIn MTR-DCI.
4. Create the device connection (online connection) between
the PC and the MTR-DCI via the FCT tool bar.
It may be necessary here to have the same device names.
Device control
In order that the FCT can control the connected MTR-DCI, the
control interface of the MTR-DCI must be deactivated and
“Controller enable” must be set. The actual status of the
ENABLE input then has no effect. Switch to the window
“Project output”, then select the register “Operate” and
activate under “Device control” first the control box
“FCT/HMI” and then the control box “Enable”. The control
interface of the MTR-DCI will then be deactivated and Control
Enable will be set by the FCT.
