3.19.1 SCALANCE X-100 button
What does the button do?
Using the button, you can display and modify the set fault mask. The fault mask setting is
retained after device power off/on.
After pressing and holding down the button, the currently valid fault mask is displayed for
approximately 3 seconds. The LEDs of the monitored ports flash at a frequency of 5 Hz.
To change the fault mask, keep the button pressed. Within the next 3 seconds, the current
link status of the ports is displayed flashing at a frequency of 2.5 Hz. Keep the button
pressed. This new status is adopted as the new fault mask. The monitored ports now are
indicated by permanently lit LEDs until the button is released. As long as the LEDs are still
flashing, however, the saving of the mask can be stopped by releasing the button.
If an empty fault mask is set (no port is monitored), the two neighboring port LEDs flash on
and off alternately. To create an empty fault mask when you save as described above, the
port cables must not be connected.
At the same time, the monitoring of the connected power supply is set with the fault mask.
The existence of the two power sources is monitored only if they are connected when the
fault mask is saved.
The failure of the link of one of the monitored ports or one of the monitored power supplies is
indicated by the red fault LED lighting up. At the same time, the signaling contact opens.
Port monitoring and power supply monitoring are not activated when the device is delivered
(factory default).
3.19.2 SCALANCE X-200 button
What does the button do?
Using the button, you can display and modify the set fault mask. The fault mask setting is
retained after device power off/on.
After pressing and holding down the button, the currently valid fault mask is displayed for
approximately 3 seconds. The LEDs of the monitored ports flash at a frequency of 5 Hz.
To change the fault mask, keep the button pressed. After a further 3 seconds, the current
link status of the ports is displayed and the the power supply LEDs flash at a frequency of
2.5 Hz. Keep the button pressed. After a further 3 seconds, this status is adopted and saved
as the new fault mask. The monitored ports now are indicated by permanently lit LEDs until
the button is released. As long as the LEDs are still flashing, however, the saving of the
mask can be stopped by releasing the button.
