Make restart settings

The FP-I4C unit can be set up to restart using either timer control, PLC control or both.

1. Go to COM Interface > Restart settings.
2. Make the following settings:

   • Enable Restart by time to automatically restart the FP-I4C unit after the set number of hours.

   • Enable Restart by PLC.

     If enabled, the PLC connected via the specified COM interface can restart the FP-I4C.

     Specify any of the following parameters:

     • Control flag: Set the address of the flag that controls the restart function.

       For Modbus, the R memory area corresponds to the coil area.

     • Restart trigger: Select the desired trigger type.

       You can choose between Rising edge (control flag changes from FALSE to TRUE) or Falling edge (control flag changes from TRUE to FALSE).

     • Polling time: Set the interval in seconds to poll the PLC's control flag.

       A low value (e.g. 1s) will cause high data traffic. We recommend a value between 3s and 7s.

3. Save your configuration.

   When you have changed any settings, a Save button appears in the upper right corner of the screen. You can make changes on multiple pages and then save your settings.
