Call up via Configuration Management > Station > Station
There are four changes in this dialog.
- Station No. has been extended so that station numbers with 12
digits can now be displayed.
- The flag VNR Active was added. This flag cannot be edited
and is displayed for information purposes only.
- The access code for the virtual node (VNAC) is displayed directly
next to the field Virtual Node ID.
- The field DPLN Group (tab page Base 1) was added.
Configuring a new station in a system with VNR
- Using the virtual node assigned as standard
When configuring a new station, the user does not need to specify a
Virtual Node ID. This is an optional input parameter. If the user
does not input any information, the virtual node assigned as standard
is used for the station in question. The standard node for the relevant
system is the virtual node for which the
Default Entry checkbox
is selected in the
"Virtual
Nodes (KNDEF)" Window.
The Virtual node ID is in fact a mandatory parameter that is
automatically filled when the user does not input specific information.
- Using the standard DPLN group of a virtual node
Standard DPLN group usage is similar to that of the virtual node assigned
as standard. A DPLN group must be declared as standard for every virtual
node.
If the user leaves the field for the DPLN group entry empty, this
is automatically filled with the value of the standard DPLN group for
the selected virtual node.
