This is the terminal port default operating mode. It is principally used for:
-
connecting a programming/adjustment terminal and a man-machine interface console if a Premium PLC is used
-
connecting a programming/adjustment terminal or man-machine interface console in the case of an Atrium PLC or Premium P57 554/5634/6634 PLCs with only one terminal port
Examples of connection:
NOTE: When using an Atrium station where the processor only has one terminal port, this type of connection can be made by using a TSX P ACC 01 device.
The master can scan up to eight link addresses:
-
Link addresses 1,2 and 3 are reserved for the programming terminal.
-
The five other addresses are available for connecting a device such as a man-machine interface, slave PLC, sensors/actuators or any other slave device which supports UNI-TE protocol. Addresses 4 and 5 are reserved for a man-machine interface console, it one is used (addresses are forced by using a XBT-Z 968 cable).
This functioning mode is immediately operational. Within the limits of the default configuration, no installation phase is required to connect a device to this type of link.
