Commissioning the Valve System with EtherNet/IP
10 Commissioning the Valve System with
EtherNet/IP
Before commissioning the system, the following steps must have been carried out and be complete:
You have assembled the valve system with bus coupler (see the assembly instructions for the
bus couplers and I/O modules, as well as the valve system).
You have made the presettings and configured the system (see section 9 "Presettings on the Bus
Coupler" on page 95 and section 5 "PLC Configuration of the Valve System" on page 79).
You have connected the bus coupler to the controller (see AV valve system assembly
instructions).
You have configured the controller so that it actuates the valves and the I/O modules correctly.
Commissioning and operation may only be carried out by qualified electrical or pneumatics
personnel or an instructed person under the direction and supervision of qualified personnel
(see section 2.4 "Personnel qualifications" on page 71).
Danger of explosion with no impact protection!
Mechanical damage, e.g. strain on the pneumatic or electrical connectors, will lead to non-
compliance with the IP65 protection class.
In explosive environments, make sure that the equipment is installed in a manner that
protects it from all types of mechanical damage.
Danger of explosion due to damaged housings!
Damaged housings can lead to an explosion in explosive areas.
Make sure that the valve system components are only operated with completely assembled
and intact housing.
Danger of explosion due to missing seals and plugs!
Liquids and foreign objects could penetrate and destroy the device.
Make sure that the seals are integrated in the plug and not damaged.
Make sure that all plugs are mounted before starting the system.
Risk of uncontrolled movements when switching on the system!
There is a danger of personal injury if the system is in an undefined state.
Put the system in a safe state before switching it on.
Make sure that no personnel are within the hazardous zone when the compressed air supply
is switched on.
1. Switch on the operating voltage.
The controller sends configuration data to the bus coupler during startup.
2. After the initialization phase, check the LED statuses on all modules (see section 11 "LED
Diagnosis on the Bus Coupler" on page 102 as well as the system description of the I/O modules).
Before applying the working pressure, the diagnostic LEDs may only be illuminated in green,
as described in Table 21:
