About us
Introduction
The adjustment screen displays the adjustment parameters of a SERCOS® channel.
These parameters can be modified in offline or online mode.
It also gives access to the configuration and debug screen.
The structure of the adjustment screen is very similar to that of the configuration screen.
NOTE: For an introduction to the processes of configuring, adjusting and debugging a project, see the section on Common application specific functions.
