The communication speed with the field devices, when being commissioned, mainly depends on
whether the Lenze Controller is currently running or is stopped. In the latter case, the total
bandwidth of the fieldbus is provided to the gateway so that the speed advantage in the case of
direct coupling would only be marginal. Thus, the use of the Lenze Controller as gateway as part of
the control technology should be clearly preferred.
Information on the commissioning of Lenze field devices is provided in the chapter "
