PROGRAMMABLE WALL STATION

Owner’s manual 17

4.4 Find Function

The Find Function simplifies identifying a programmable wall station when a variety of (identical) wall

stations are operated on the same CAN-Bus. When the Find Function is active, the CAN-STATUS-LED on

the PWS-C’s rear blinks (and, if existing, the LEDs of the front unit selected in IRIS-Net™) as shown in the

table on page 15. The LEDs of all other wall stations for which the Find Function has not been activated do

not light. Notes on how to use the Find Function can be found in the IRIS-Net™ documentation.

4.5 Diagnostic Mode

The diagnostic mode allows the convenient querying the hardware configuration of a PWS wall panel,

including CAN-Bus address, baud rate, etc., without dismounting the wall panel. In diagnostic mode the

front unit that is directly connected to the CAN-Bus coupler is being queried.

Manually accessing diagnostic mode is possible under following conditions:

• Either the CAN-Bus is out of operation (e.g. when CAN-address 0 has been set)

• or activation for the wall panel’s diagnostic mode has been unlocked in IRIS-Net™ (refer to the online

help in IRIS-Net™).

If one of these conditions is true, please proceed as follows to access diagnostic mode:

1. Press any button on the programmable wall station and hold it down for at least 5 seconds.

Three times flashing all of the LEDs on the front panel of the PWS indicates that diagnostic mode has

been activated. Following that, the 4 upper LEDs light, as explained in line “1” of table 4.5

2. The 4 upper buttons of this front unit can be used to query the desired parameters.

Parameters that can be queried in diagnostic mode are listed in table 4.5.

indication

The information indicated by the upper LED is identical

to the information signaled by the CAN-Status-LED on

the PWS-C (see page 15). The second LED from the

top lights when the PWS-C’s DIP-switches have been

invalidly set.

CAN-address (low-

order digit)

Switch setting 1-4 (LOW) of the DIP-switch ADDRESS

(see page 14) from top to bottom

CAN-address (high-

order digit)

Switch setting 5-8 (HIGH) of the DIP-switch ADDRESS

(see page 14) from top to bottom

4 Baud rate

Setting of contacts 1-3 of the DIP-switch TERM/BAUD

(see page 11), setting of contact 4 (Termination) is not

indicated
