Installation and commissioning

• In the ‘Conﬁguration’ window you must enter a name for the

bridge and change the communication settings if required.

• Click the <OK> button.

Enter a name for the bridge.

Communication settings:

Increase 'Timeout', if data

transmission is poor.

Disable 'Route and data import'

when bridge is shut down for

maintenance.

OMNITREND establishes a connection to the bridge, reads its

serial number and indicates it in the ‘ID’ ﬁeld.

• Click the <Register Device> button. The bridge is now registered

in OMNITREND and logged on.

You do not need a

password to register the

bridge.
